Want to Keep the Love Alive in YOUR Relationship?
I was shocked the other day when a friend of mine was talking to me
about my relationship and I told her that, while no relationship is
perfect, we are managing to maintain the respect for each other that
assists in building a better relationship. Like what? She asked. Well,
for starters - I never stop thanking him enough. When he takes the
initiative to do something that helps out, I thank him. Her response?
Oh, that will stop.
HUNH????
Stop? As in "not necessary" to acknowledge when your partner goes out
of his way to do something? Bear in mind that when I do little things
for him, I receive a "thank you" also. To ME when you both start to
take things for granted, that's when the relationship starts to
deteriorate.
Moral of blog today: APPRECIATE. When the slightest little thing is
done for you, smile and say to your guy/gal, I really appreciate it. I
don't care if it is a job that you expect to be done because you've
asked him/her to do something (in a nice way, of course) show that you
appreciate it with a "Thank You".
Keep the love alive in your relationship! A little appreciation goes a long way!
Sending you angels,
Jane
