    • Relationship Rules to Live By
      • My five essential relationship rules. Heck, rules to live by really!


        Love Yourself
        If you don't know how to love yourself, for who you really are, despite your flaws, then how will you be able to love someone else for who they really are, despite their shortcomings? Loving yourself also means respecting yourself, and if you respect and love who you are, then so will other people!


        Be as honest as you can be...
        Being totally honest, all of the time, it just doesn't work. For example, do I really want to spend another Saturday watching some meaningless sports event on TV? NO. But do I love and cherish my husband, and know how much he enjoys said spots programs, yes. So will I tell him that I hate watching sports, and wish he'd watch reruns of The Real Housewives of New York with me? No, because it's not essential to our relationship, and I like seeing him happy. Tell the truth on the big ticket items, but to be honest (hehe), a little white lie, or non-disclosure, can go a very LOOOONNNNGGG way.


        Don't Forget What It was Like When you first started dating
        Remember that butterfly feeling in the pit of your stomach? Being super excited to get that phone call, from your special someone, the electricity and intensity of your first kiss? As time goes on, and you get more comfortable, and committed, it's easy to forget how all that felt. Look back at pictures, or re-read notes from when you first started hanging out, and bring the old spark back to breathe new life into your relationship!


        Laugh, a lot....
        Simply put, by better men (or women), laughter is the best medicine for all of life's craziness. Laugh, a lot, and often, because sometimes there's just nothing else to do.


        Don't forget the little things
        My husband doesn't like white bread, he only eats wheat. He also hates mayonnaise and generally will not eat cheese, in addition to the fact that he really does not like his food to touch other food on his dinner plate. I could easily forget about these things, or get sloppy or careless and slop all his food together with mayo and cheese on top, or..... I could remember these little things and show him that I am listening to him, and I do care about his preferences, and that he is important to me. It's really easy to get caught up in the everyday tangles of life, and work, and kids, and family, and so on and so forth. It's even easier to forget the little things... take a deep breath, and try to remember some, you'll make your significant other very happy....
