Relationships
I thought it might be nice for people to talk about their relationships and give advice for those in need

Never get hooked up with someone that is just like you. Especially if you have a hot temper and you're a bit wild. In that case, find someone who is calmer... he'll even you out and you'll make his life a bit more exciting.

Never leave the toilet seat up.
Be diplomatic over who last saw the remote control for the telly (and where it is now). Never fight on an empty stomach. Spoil each other rotten |

Never start a relationship hoping to change the other person (or be changed by them). It is always good if you can positively influence each other, but to try & change everything about someone is never a good idea, in the end you will be left with a feeling of 'you are not the person I fell in love with'
Accept the fact that sometimes the other person just isn't thinking of you - this doesn't mean he / she doesn't love you, it simply means they are normal & have other interests too. Guys (and girls) will look at other people and even be attracted to them, this doesn't mean they aren't happy with you or are cheating on you. Respect each other - this includes respecting each other's need for privacy, space and time alone. Have fun & laugh a lot. Never be afraid to make a fool of yourself Always give 100% of yourself - even when it ends & you get hurt, don't go into the next relationship holding back - it's not fair to yourself or the other person. There comes a time in life (usually after 25) when you have to accept that relationships will become like Airports & you become a porter, i.e there is always baggage to cart around, if you are lucky the person you choose would have packed light (you should try & do the same - don't pack excess, 'cos there's always shopping to be done ). All women don't want to cuddle after sex all the time - sometimes we just want you to roll over & go to sleep. Never tell a woman your mother cooks better than her - if that's the case move back to mommy & have dinner there. Open the door for her (car doors included) and wait for her to enter a room before you - I have yet to meet a woman who doesn't like a gentleman. Don't assume every bad mood she has is because of 'that time of the month' Don't overanalyse each & every situation - sometimes stuff just happens, there doesn't need to be a deeper, psychological reason for it. Chocolate body paint is not a good idea on a hot Summer's day, outside in the garden (ants will get there before you do). Don't call your .........ahem........., 'parts' by cute little nicknames in public Quote:

Never try to be in a relationship with a guy because your friends tell you that you should be together with that guy. That's only hard for both of you.

Another bit of advise (for the guys) - women will ALWAYS have the last word in an argument, anything said by a man after that will be the start of a new argument
OK, seriously, don't go to bed angry at each other (simply because angry bed partners tend to kick & if you're a guy & happen to be snoring your partner might just break your rib instead of giving you the usual gentle nudge). Don't assume that 'make up sex' vindicates any wrong doing - in truth there is no such thing as 'make up sex'. Learn to argue intelligently & don't dredge up old cows...lines like "You always do this or that wrong" is immature & stupid. Oh and physical violence is a NO NO. Furry pink handcuffs are not for the weak at heart. Always keep the keys to the handcuffs nearby. Make sure you wear clean undies - ALWAYS *will add to the list later, this requires thinking *

You've covered a lot of the angles there K
One thing tho'........money, the bedamned stuff is never worth fighting over........if the pair of yer have got it, great, decide how you're gonna spend it (hint for the lads......don't go out an buy a new car, never goes down well.......and yer've invariable bought the wrong kinda car ) and if ya don't have money.......don't fight about that either.....sometimes the most fun in a relationship comes from finding things to enjoy that don't require a second mortgage |

Yer right about the cash (right on the money honey ) - it's not worth fighting over and some of the funnest things are either free or dirt cheap anyway. One cardinal rule I forgot to mention (this one's more for the ladies) - Sex is not a weapon, don't use it to get your own way. Oh and if the relationship is in trouble, don't think having kids will help - children aren't band aids

One for the fellas: Lads wake up somewhat, erm, excited everyday.........amazingly women occasionally don't........learn the benefits of hopping into the shower while the lass sleeps ....... this makes for a much more peacefull day (although if you both wake up at the same time, it can be a different scenario all together ) Quote:
