How do you do? Do you already have a relationship or just looking for one? In either case, I suppose, you dream of having a loving partner, who kisses you every time he or she sees you, you are having great intercourse every now and then so that you both think it is often, you can always tell your partner everything that happened that day and receive a warm understanding, no quarrel is on horizon and life is just beautiful!
Wow, I wish I have it for all my life, you say. Well, probably you do, I really wish so. But in case you still want to improve that, I suggest you read some further.
According to a 'Personal Values' course I studied and than used that data a couple of times with constant success, the ONLY thing that can cool a relationship is when you do something YOU KNOW your partner would not approve of and you DON'T TELL HIM ABOUT IT!
Oh, oh, oh. That's a silent bomb just waiting to explode. And meanwhile? It causes you to avoid speaking with your partner just a little (here goes open communication); you feel some eluding shame and suddenly start to find faults in your partner (here shrinks the attraction and affection); your partner just doesn't understand what's going on (bye bye agreement and understanding).
Quarrels start and eventually you just don't understand why you need that relationship anymore and you'd better cool off at your parents or so. And so the relationship goes by the boards. Pity!
All that was needed was:
1. Not doing things you KNOW your partner would not approve of. This requires PERSONAL STRENGTH and INTEGRITY!
2. If already done, just telling him or her about it and taking the responsibility both for not doing it again and also for compensating your partner for what has been done. This requires COURAGE and a lot of it.
In order to help with the first point above, I suggest you talk to your partner as soon as possible and decide what is absolutely inappropriate for each of you, and what you wouldn't want your partner to commit, since it would be real hard to forgive and forget. This act is called 'creating a common moral code'.
From now on both of you just know the borders of each other behavior, which would let you stay a couple with trust and understanding of each other.
I sincerely hope this was quite helpful to you.

Iam meeting my sisters new boyfriend next week ...
By: ronny | 25-10-2008
Iam meeting my sisters new boyfriend next week. They seem quite serious and very compatible. In the past I have been very negative on who she meets. From what Iam told, this one is a keeper. Now, understand my sister is a 51 year old divorced woman. She has met many men since her divorce several years ago. Iam the older brother. My question is, when I meet this guy, what do I say upon the first glance of meeting? "hi how are you, Iam glad to meet you" doesnt seem like me at all. Iam more a very opinionated person with sly remarks. I dont want to blow it for her, yet I want this guy to know he is not going to mess with my sisters head. What suggestions does anyone have for this first meeting?
About his sex drive (personal)
By: Guess B | 25-10-2008
This is a totally personal question. But I need help to figure this out. My boyfriend seems to kinda lose his sex drive. I mean he is just 21 so its not like he is old enough to lose it right. He didn't completely lose it. Its just that he hardly approaches me for sex anymore. Its my first relationship and his second. Maybe he is used to it, or bored or something. But I am not. I like sex like an average person. And what shocked me more was when I got to know he used to do his first gf like two times a day everyday! Which was only like 4 years ago. He was like that with me in the first few weeks of our relationship. Its been almost a year now for us. But his sex drive has dropped like crazy. Weeks would go by and still nothing. And I feel like a horny whore when I am always the only one who asks for sex. Don't get it wrong, he loves me in bed. Its just that he never makes the initial approach. I am tired and embarrassed of always being the one to start it or ask for it. So I need to know what can I do to get him to make a start. I tried waiting for him to ask, but that didn't really work. I can't dump him just because of this, cause I love him, and I am not in it for the sex. But I cant continue ignoring my needs. And masturbation doesn't help. Because I am the kinda person who associates sex with love. Some advice would be really helpful. (Please don't tell me to make him use some sort of pills for this, because he wont. Just few naughty tips that would make him want me.) By the way, I did try to talk to him about it, he went like, 'you are more into in cause its your first relationship, I am kinda tired of this"! I have never known of a normal guy say he is tired of sex. :S (not like I have changed physically or even emotionally since the beginning of this relationship) He is not cheating either, he hardly finds time for his family and his interests, let alone another girl besides me. Wearing a sexy outfit might be one of your advice, but then again its 'me' approaching 'him'. I want to do something tricky to get him to make a start. I know it sounds like a difficult question. But if I had a clue I wouldn't be asking this question in the first place. Please help.
