| 1. Don't start behavior patterns that you can't maintain. If you can't keep it up, don't set the expectation. 2. Don't pretend to love anything that falls outside of the realm of your natural behavior. If you hate outdoor sports, don't feign an interest for his sake. Eventually you'll stop participating, and he'll wonder what happened to the hiking buddy that he loved so much. Don't be deceptive. 3. Understand what your significant other likes, and keep doing those things. If they're things that you enjoy doing, you should enjoy putting a smile on his face. 4. Don't slack off! Maintenance is the key to a successful relationship! |
Quote:
| Life is full of unexpected circumstances and events. We try to plan for them, and we sometimes try to forecast them so we can avoid some of the bad events or circumstances, but it is still difficult to do so. We crave consistency and stability in our lives. In relationships, we want that consistency because it allows us to have a peace of mind about our relationship. We don't want to have to keep thinking about the actual maintenance of the relationship, because that is mentally exhausting. On the other hand, usually we can't have a relationship that is naturally consistent because generally the two people involved in a relationship do not have exact, or even similar, personalities. |
