Relationship tips to help your relationship work better and last longer.

The Best Things in Life aren’t Free and Take Work

The best things in life are hard to get and once you get it you usually have to work damn hard to keep it. Relationships are no different each day is a job both the man and the woman must be willing to work at that relationship everything is based on communication. The more the couple communicates however doesn’t mean the relationship will last long some relationships do end because things being said that are a little outside the lines. (one of the two finds it offensive)
Men and Women Try to Control Each Other

Both men and women have one main problem in common when it comes to relationships this is control. Men shouldn’t feel threaten by the woman in relationships and vice versa. In the bible it states that the man is the head and the woman is the tail. However this does not mean that one is in control over the other. Being a good wife means trusting and submitting to your husband. Being a good husband means you take advice from your wife when needed. Instead of just ignoring or not asking at all, women mostly want to be included and have an opinion. You’ll have a lot less head aches if you let them be involved in your business or any ideas or plans you may have.

Breaking Up: To Dine or Not to Dine? »

In relationship men and women get mad about things that they most likely do themselves. Little pet peeves about each other bother them and get them upset. For each pet peeve you dislike you probably do two pet peeves that your partner doesn’t like and not even realize it. Why? Because not all of us communicate.
Most Relationships Start Sexually

In today’s society sex is a huge factor in relationships, and a lot of them start from an sexual encounter or just a sexual desire. This is a problem because if you establish “love” (in which is really lust) off of a sexual desire it will be hard to do nothing but have sex. In which over time will get boring maybe not the first few months but sooner or later when you realize that all your doing is having sex it’ll get old. Relationships should be more than sex. Making it about sex only leaves opportunity for others to get involved during arguments or short break ups. Your only there for the Lust.
Both Men and Women Don’t Really Understand What They Want

Both men and women don’t understand what they want in a relationship they say they want one thing but if a person lacks something else they find important they don’t want to be involved. The fact of the matter is no one is going to be perfect you will be very lucky to fine the person you have been picturing in your head all these years. Relationships aren’t the movies.
