HOW TO BUILD YOUR RELATIONSHIP

Regardless of whether you’re single, attached or married, the following tips can be applied easily. This guide is actually written in a guy’s perspective, but it’s hard to say. However, ladies, some tips might just be suitable for application on your man.

1. Tell her you love her, and vice versa.

This is an important point. Note that women need lots of security (men too!). It’s actually fine to drop her a message via SMS telling her how much you love her. You both don’t have to be quarrelling in-order to be doing this. Doing this may sound stupid but it can be heart warming when your partner sees the message.

2. Be flexible.

You’ve got a chick that loves Japanese food while you prefer Thai food? Instead of telling her that you want Thai for dinner today, why not suggest something like: “We shall have your favourite cuisine today. Next week we’ll have Thai food. Is it alright?” After all, Japanese food can be very tasty.

3. Surprise her.

Women actually love surprises. Oh yes, surprises doesn’t cost much. An example would be make sure she’s hungry and got nothing for dinner. You can just make a call and order McDonald’s delivery to her place and pay for the meal with your credit card.

4. Apologize.

You know it’s your fault. Say sorry and most importantly make sure your partner accepts your apology. Move on after that. It is not at all hard to say sorry when you’re in the wrong. Many men just won’t apologize thinking that they’ll lose face doing so. Time to wake up.
 

5. Trust.

One of the most important things in a relationship. If you’re still courting a girl and you cannot trust her, don’t go on with her. If you’re in a relationship and you cannot trust her, just break up; don’t waste time. If you’re married and you find that you cannot trust her, do something about it; I don’t mean divorce, but call your spouse for serious talk on how to sort things out.

6. Communicate well.

Communication is very important in a relationship. The sender is as important as the recipient. Make sure what gets through has the same meaning as what you sent. Not always will the message be interpreted the right way. Remember.

And, when you don’t tell her what you want, you may not get it. Not always will she be able to read your sophisticated mind.
 

7. Appreciate and respect each other.

Appreciate what she’s done for you. Thank her when she’s awake at 7am to make you breakfast. Not many girls do so. As for respecting each other, your ideas are worth as much as her ideas. Respect her ideas. There are many other ways as to how you can show respect.

8. Patience.

We know you prefer some things the other way. It may take a few months for your message to get through. Be patient.

9. Listen.

Be a good listener. Do I still have to elaborate much on this?   

10. Remember the dates. (I don’t mean going out dating)

Anniversaries and birthdays are important. But it’s alright. Why not try miss it once? You’ll just feel the wrath. Don’t forget to note down her family’s birthdays too; they’re as important.
