People believe that dating & wooing a person is hard work. You are on your best behavior. Your mothers would be proud. There's no farting in front of your date, no digging in your nose and no pulling your panties out of your butt. You make sure to make time for your date and are careful to make your date feel special. You buy flowers, send cards, sext and enjoy lavish dinners together. You introduce each other to your families, go on vacations and talk on the phone till sun up.
Nothing is Better than a fresh New relationship, Right? But what about when your Date becomes your Mate? Let's take a look. While you were dating you were willing to go the extra mile for each other, you were kind and you sacrificed for each and didn't mind. You were willing to do whatever it took to make the other happy. Yes, all this in the beginning. The key words here are IN THE BEGINNING.
Unfortunately, after the honeymoon stage is over, your mate becomes like a "play cousin" to you. Someone you want to be bothered with every now and then. There are no fun dinner dates, no vacations, no sexting and suddenly you're no longer a "phone" person. Farting becomes a mainstay, you even keep a can of Glade in every room. This happens without any notice at all. Folks believe that when they say "I do" to their mate that their work is done, it's over. You no longer send flowers or cards. Constant compliments turn into constant complaints. You no longer try to stay sexy for your mate and "please" and "thank you" are far and few in between. The thing is, we fail to realize that it is easier to GET together than it is to STAY together. We have to celebrate our mates daily to keep a good relationship going. I'm not saying that you have to throw a party for your mate everyday, but what I mean is that we have to make a point to APPRECIATE each other everyday. It may be something small like, "I appreciate the way he makes the bed up every morning" to something large like, "I appreciate the way she made my family feel so welcomed and comfortable when they came to visit from out of town. All of these things are BIG DEALS. No one wants to feel taken advantage of or taken for granted, NO ONE... Give compliments. Give Hugs. Continue to share your dreams with each other. DO THIS AND WATCH HOW HAPPY YOUR HOME LIFE WILL BE.
