How do you save your relationship? This is something that we feel like we have no control over often times because when you start to realize that the relationship is in trouble it is usually when your ex leaves you.
The first and most important thing that needs to be looked at is how is your relationship right now.
You really need to start examining it as if you were an outsider looking in giving feedback on how strong the relationship is between you and your partner.
Too often we take for granted the simple things in life and especially in our relationships with others.
Men do this worse than women because we usually have become comfortable having our partner around taking care of us.
We get this from our mothers always taking care of everything for us around the house.
Think about it carefully.
Did you take your mother for granted when you lived at your parent's home? Did you always say thank you for everything your mother did for you? If you are like most men then the answer is probably not.
Your mother will probably not leave you high and dry due to lack of appreciation because her love for you is unconditional.
However, your girlfriend is a whole other story.
You have to remember that if you are in the relationship for the long haul then eventually you will want to settle down and start a family.
That means bringing on children that are going to take your partner for granted most likely, unless taught otherwise by you.
How are you supposed to set an example if you don't know how to show your partner appreciation yourself.
You need to remember that she will leave you eventually if you always take for granted that she will be there for you.
You need to start showing your appreciation to your partner by being courteous.
This means that you do some of the chores around the house without being asked.
A lot of times you don't know why your partner is being so grumpy.
It is probably due to the fact that you aren't appreciating what they do for you.
You need to do things to help around the house.
If you see that there are a lot of dishes to be done then all you simply have to do is wash them and while you are at it, clean up the rest of the kitchen.
If there is a small repair or project that needs to be done then jump right on it.
Don't let it sit or this will make you look lazy in her eyes.
The last thing that you want you partner to think of you is that you procrastinate.
