be gentle, be soft, be compassionate, be kind, be aware...mentally, physically, sexually

  • Must be willing to compromise at times.
  • Be willing to sit, "be" with uncomfortable feelings/situations without trying to resolve them in a matter of moments.
  • Try not to filter every decision, and actions taken by others through the lense of your own life experience.
  • Know the value of silence, and listening.

* I have not mastered the above

Relationship
 
Treat her like a lady!

girl_dee 11-20-2012 05:24 PM

i won't be treating my partner like a "lady", whatever that means but i do respect her as a butch woman!

girl_dee 11-20-2012 05:29 PM

Shy away from validating your partner for them, to me it seems unauthentic when one person tries to sell someone, or the relationship to the rest of the world. That can often come back to bite. Rejoice and be happy about it, but there is a such thing as going overboard.

Don't be so willing to make them "fit". Differences are ok, unless they push your boundaries too far.

Don't be the one to do all the work. If you are carrying the load, you should think about that.

Be excited when your partner tells you she is making a scarf for you in your fav basketball team's colors. (Even when it is her first "knitting" experience and you both know that it probably won't be that good.)

Enjoy face to face dinner, no electronics or distractions.

Actually be present.

Don't forget to date.
Remember the reasons why you fell in love in the first place.
Know that hard times happen, and be willing to wait it out.
Know your limits and boundaries.
Even when upset at one another, make sure your love is still known.

Do a jigsaw puzzle together, it's a blast!!!

I'm no relationship expert, but one thing that I feel is pretty important
is to just keep your attitude in check. If your always down on something, spewing judgementalness, and just have a generally bad attitude towards others or life in general, it's a complete turn-off.

The more you nurture the negativity, the more negative you become. :angry:

This is SO true. No fun to be around someone like this. Thank you for the reminder!

Easier said then done.....right

Direct
 
Honesty, Honesty, Honesty, and Directness. And get it, Honesty.

Then a relationship with me can begin, in friendship, real friendship, then we'll see. I don't do the "masks", life and friendship is too precious to waste time with anything less.

So, what to do in a relationship? Start with Honesty.

Expectance is good too, as long as you communicate that..

Yes, and so are the majority of things in life.

DamonK 12-17-2012 10:11 AM

Laugh until you cry
Be there for the other
Make sacrifices for the other
Love with all you are
