*How to Have The Best Relationship*

Honesty is always the best policy. To have the best relationships you have to be honest with yourself and with your partner. You can never expect to get what you want or need if you can't admit what those things truly are.

*INSTRUCTION TO HAVE THE BEST RELATIONSHIP*


Step 1

It is mandatory that you sit down with yourself and pour over past relationships to figure out what has worked for you and against you in the past. You cannot expect the other person to already know what it is you seek, just as you cannot go into a store and have the sales clerk read your mind about the color of blouse you prefer.

Make list if you need to. What has made you feel content, satisfied? What in your past relationships has made you crazy or unhappy? Contemplate honestly whether or not it was something the other person did or if it your expectations were unrealistic. Honesty starts with you!


Step 2


Communicate! Before delving into the abyss of eternal love (or what you think is eternal love,) talk to your partner. Find out what worked for them in their past relationships, and what didn't work. If you are a woman then it's get pretty easy. Men need to be needed and desired. More importantly, men need to know they have your support! If they feel that you doubt them or their decisions, you risk pushing them away without verbally communicating your feelings.

Step 3

Men respond emotionally to physical contact. Women respond physically to emotional contact. You have to remember what attracted you to your man and how he made you feel in the throws of passion and recreate it every chance you get. Women often wait for their man to give them what they need emotionally before they respond to his physical needs. What so many people do not realize about men is that you have to kick start things. The nature of men and women will never change no matter how unfair or how unbalanced women believe they are. He will respond to you emotionally when you show him you want, desire, and need him.

Step 4

A little trick to making this work for you is to be confident. Show him physical affection, but also let him see you can stand on your own. That will make him WANT to be a rock for you! Men do not, and have never, held a long attraction for a woman who is needy and dependent. Men are turned on by a woman who can stand alone, but they also want to be the one that woman leans on when she is weak.

Step 5

The best relationships and longest marriages are a result of give and take. He is only human, and when you met you were okay with that. He is still the same person, as are you. If you talk about the things most meaningful to you in the early stages of your relationship, you will find ways to work together to make it last ;)
