Our Relationship Is Not The Same Anymore

Yes, you read that right.

When we got married last year, we thought that was it. We thought so many things to tell you guys the truth, so you can imagine our surprise when we started realizing that our relationship was not the same anymore…

A few days ago, I was driving us back home, and Sugar touched my hand and said, “You are the one for me…” I just melted—figuratively, of course. I knew that he meant it.

Last year, I was just a girl saying yes, but now, I know I am his everything. Not because he says so, but because I know so. His actions constantly prove it to me!

My point is that I am grateful for the good and bad times, and the so-so ones.  Thanks to them, our relationship is not the same anymore: it is stronger!

Getting married is not it, staying married is! Respecting your partner and being patient with him/her are vital components of a healthy marriage. Make sure that your own relationship is not static. You should be able to grow closer to your spouse and create a deeper love.

Please, feel free to share your thoughts! 🙂

What Do You Want?

Yes, you! What do you want?

There is no such a thing as a guide to being a perfect spouse/partner. In other words, if you want your significant other to do certain things for you, you must be showing him the way. For instance, if you want your husband to tell you that he loves you more often, you need to start by reminding him how much you care for him. We, human beings, tend to forget that other people usually treat us the same way we treat them or ourselves for that matter. Let’s  be realistic for a second: if you are not paying any attention to your man , why are you expecting him to notice you?

I remember back in high school, I used to hope that Sugar would give me flowers. Of course, like most girls/women usually do, I never told him what I was wishing for until that one day when I finally realized that if I wanted something to happen, I needed to do something about it. Consequently, I bought him some white flowers. When he realized that they were for him, he melted—figuratively, of course. Trust me when I say this: Sugar got my message, and has been giving me flowers ever since. I strongly believe that actions speak louder than words. That is why I did not just tell him what I wanted, but I gave him the opportunity to feel what it was like to receive flowers from a loved one.

Now, if you are, by any chance, in the same situation that I was in: you obviously do not have to give him flowers. Especially if you think that it might make you or him feel uncomfortable, but just keep in mind that no one ever said that a man could not enjoy receiving flowers. Society made you believe that only women should! I hope you see the difference…

Finally, if you are trying to improve your love life, you do not have to agree with every thing that I said, but listen to the King of Pop, start with the man woman in the mirror…

Laugh Out Loud!

Sugar and I just enjoy cooking. When we are both at home, we like to prepare dinner together!

With that being said, I was very sick, last month; consequently, I was unable to help Sugar prepare the meal. Luckily, he decided to do it all by himself. We had on the menu: mashed potatoes, steak, and salad.

I was really looking forward to sharing this meal with him–to say the least…

Furthermore, it was already passed 8 o’clock, and I was getting very hungry. That is why I was so happy when my husband said that dinner was ready! He brought me my plate with a big smile on his face… However, once I realized that he had put some chopped onions in the mashed potatoes I became disappointed. Well, to tell you the truth, I started complaining about everything… until I remembered how lucky I was am, for I have a husband who cares about me; then, I just laughed out loud. Yes, I laughed at myself because I was not being appreciative of the fact that he cooked us dinner. Of course, that did not mean that I was going to eat all the mashed potatoes, but, at least, I stopped criticizing everything that he cooked that night!

My point is that we, human beings, like to complain–most of the time–about everything. We need to start appreciating one another more. We should also cherish the little things in life because they matter the most!

Don’t just know how special your significant other is: say it! I am not a perfect woman, but I try… And that’s all that matters to my husband.

Finally, always remember to pick your battles. Try not to take yourself too seriously; admit your mistakes. And just laugh out loud!

Women’s Most Annoying Habit

I know that you, guys, really want to know the last poll’s results, but first things first… I want to thank those who took the time to read my blog post, “You Are Not Better Than Your Man,” and those who voted–poll was included in the post!

Now, I have some good bad news for you, ladies! The results are in… Women talk too much! Old news, right? Sorry for the disappointment! :p

With that being said, we, women, do not only need to stop nagging our significant others, but also to make sure that only kind words come out of our mouths. Respect is key to a good relationship!

On the other hand, we should remember that “a  man is already halfway in love with any woman who listens to him” (Brendan Francis).  🙂
