WOMEN

DO

1.When you want more quality time with your man, make time you do have as positive as possible. 2.Trust and respect him. 3.Stop nagging. 4.Allow your partner time away from you without giving him third degree. 5.Appreciate little things he does for you and tell him so. 6.Make love creatively and often. Don’t be afraid to initiate lovemaking. 7.Honor any agreements you have made with him. 8.Support his goals and direction. 9.Ask for what you want! (Believe it or not, no matter how much he loves you, he really can’t read your mind.) 10.Accept his “No” gracefully, trusting that he would if he could.

DON’T

1.Go to bed angry with your partner. 2.Insist he always share his feelings with you. Talking about feelings is more what women need. 3.Attempt to converse with your partner during a good movie or sporting event. 4.Continue to “give” in what you perceive is a lopsided relationship when you are at a point of resentment. 5.Criticize him or put him down, especially things he does. 6.Scold your partner as if he were a child. 7.Use sex as a prize for good behavior or withholding of sex as punishment for “bad” behavior. 8.Compare him to a fictional character in a book, movie or soap drama and find him lacking. 9.Violate his privacy. 10.Try to change him. Appreciate man he is right now.

A second consideration is simply that there are major differences in how men are in relationships compared to how women are. Women generally don’t understand men because men don’t act like women and similarly, men don’t understand women because they don’t act like men. And since a woman has never been a man and a man has never been a woman, how does each learn about these important differences? John Gray researched and wrote about these issues in his book, Men are from Mars; Women are from Venus. But I would say that majority of people in relationships don’t take time to learn about these gender differences. It is easier to point a finger and blame other person for his or her “irrational” behavior.

As mentioned earlier, a third area of growth is learning how to manage conflict. There are time proven methods for resolving conflict that we don’t learn in school or from a book. There are ways to actually hear each other in relationships. By placing relationship FIRST in importance, these methods can be implemented by couples to greatly improve their satisfaction.
