Rules to improve your relationship
Every girl what has ever hung around a grocery store magazine rack, knows there is always a lot of good saucy, sexy stuff in any copy of Cosmopolitan Magazine. Because of that, I can only assume that this publication is sometimes dismissed as "fluff". Yet, this little post is a reminder that terrific information can be found in many and varied places - and this month's Cosmo is no exception to that fact.In the November issue, there is an article that outlines some really good advice. The “22 best relationship tips ever" covers everything from communication to intimacy to sex...all the kinds of stuff couples planning to get married should be talking about. Six of these rules are outlined in an online article stemming from a discussion between Cosmo Editor in Chief, Kate White, and Dr. Dale Atkins, author of "Sanity Savers: Tips for Women to Lead a Balanced Life".
In brief, their tips for couples for couples to strengthen and improve their relationships include:
- Change it up - act out of character, avoid getting into ruts
- Talk it out - communicate, really listen and acknowledge each other's feelings
- Be tolerant - "everybody has their stuff and you do to", don't focus on the negative
- Make time for each other - like the ad says, "Just do it"
- Continue the courtship -do the things you used to do when you first met -- take walks, go for coffee, have dates, hold hands
- Steer clear - pay attention to what doesn't work and avoid doing it again. Remember your partner can't read your mind, so for this you have to go back to rule number 2.
Happy Couples, Happy Planet!
