My Lesson In Love :D

I have post this in GirlTalk, there was a topic about Lesson In Love so I enumerated mine and thought of posting it here too. They are:
  1. Prayers. Before I met my husband I ask God to give me my other half. And he did, he gave me my husband. It gives both of you ground.
  2. Love and Respect yourself first. Others wont love and respect you if you didn't give some for yourself too. Have a "me" time also. Embrace it! Go out with friends too, it doesn't mean that since you have a husband or just a bf you'll neglect yourself also.
  3. Love needs daily work for it to mature and blossoms. You need to work hard, learn new things and share to keep the fire and passion for each other alive. Like the saying goes, "Love is a work in progress".
  4. Have quality time with each other and yourself. Always giving importance to the relationship and not taking it for granted will help built a stronger foundation and a lasting togetherness. Have time for "us" too, it doesn't mean since you always sees each other it will be enough. Marriage and Commitment are like flowers it need sun, water, fertilizers/vitamins to make it grow. It needs TLC(tender, loving, and care).
  5. Love each other's MIND. When your skin lost its elasticity, the breasts sags, have wrinkles, beer belly and drool while sleeping the love you have for each other's personalities, beliefs, the journey both of you have taken are the ones that binds you together.
  6. Learn to Communicate. If you have something to say, say it. Ask, don't let him guess he's not a mind reader. Learn to talk to your partner and be a friend too. It will help you share yourself with him and vice versa. It will be the only thing left too when you grow old.
  7. Have a sense of humor. Make each other laugh, have fun, play...its the most wonderful thing you could contribute in the relationship.
  8. Trust. Without it, it will be futile to go on.
  9. Give and Take. Learn when to give when your partner needed it and don't be so full of pride to not take the offer of help, support, love etc that he is giving you.
  10. Surprise each other. Like being spontaneous, giving him a massage after a hard day at work, sending him a bouquet of flowers in his office, cooking his favorite dish even though you don't know(its the effort that counts ), etc...It gives sparks to the relationship and fan the flame.
  11. Acceptance. Accept him/her for who he/she is with all his/her flaws. No one is perfect. Understand his shortcomings and be patient.
  12. Forgive. Learn to forgive if he made a bad decisions or when he did something that you don't approve of.
  13. Compromise. If both of you don't agree on what to do, meet half way.
  14. Don't fight when others are present. Learn to balance the situation. If someone is angry, don't fight in front of others. Don't fight fire with fire. Wait for privacy before both of you can discuss the matter. It will help salve your partners pride and you will be appreciated for the gesture.
  15. Date....each other of course! You and your husband/bf should go out like everything is always new.
