We all have an idea of what we look for in a partner: brown or black hair, green or blue eyes, if they look more like Jacob Black or Edward Cullen. What about…The Do's and don'ts in a relationship, some say communication, compromise, and trust are key to a good foundation to a beautiful blossoming relationship, but what gets us to that point? Obviously Communication is the key factor in any relationship weather it be friendship or courtship. For some of us it's hard, but if a cave man can bang a rock on the ground saying “this is my chicken”. Then we have to remember to communicate the best way we know how with each other. For those of us that are not sure what the do's and don'ts are of a just blossoming relationship or if you are in a full bloom relationship here are some great tips to help you along in your finding that happy medium with that someone special.
Don'ts
Criticize your partner
Act single when you’re in a relationship
Try to change your partner
Gloat when you’re right
Violate privacy
Compare him/her to a fictional character in a book, or movie
Compare him/her to a ex boyfriend/girlfriend
DO'S
Send love notes via text, e-mail, Face-book ect.
Spend time together; do date night watching movies at home or a night out
Tell a joke, have a good sense of humor, remember to laugh often.
Flirt shameless with each other.
Listen to what your partner’s wants and needs are
Trust and respect
The best advice I can give to any one is. Don’t try to have a perfect relationship. There’s no such thing. Expecting one will only paralyze you. Let your partner be who they are and you be you don't try to change either. It's nice to go out but remember it’s nice to stay in sometimes, cuddling and watching movies, the best gift you can give your partner besides flowers and candy is time together.
