Simple Lesson from the Bible that Can Help You Get Married

There appears to be lots of Christian singles books on the shelves these days, on how to select a mate, how to love a mate & how to keep a mate. But before you can be picked, loved or kept, you need to be found or find anyone. Following what people did in the Bible may help you on your way...

Community Counts...
When a man or woman reached an appropriate age in the Bible, their love ticket was fundamentally written for them. Abraham found a spouse for his son, Isaac. Naomi helped her widowed daughter-in-law Ruth find her man Boaz & Mordecai helped his cousin, Esther marry a king.

Unlike our modern culture, in biblical times people had families, communities as well as a social structure to help them get married. Nowadays, it is rare to have that kind of help. If anyone desires to get married, lots of times we are told:

But like people seek mentoring; coaching & support when they need to focus on careers & academics, having people around that share your vision for marriage can be crucial. You need their faith & possibly even their prodding & planning along the path to your wedding day. It might be they "know somebody" that might be a nice mate for you, or it could be that they can be faithful in prayer for you. Regardless of the case, according to the Bible, they are not meant to take the journey to matrimony alone.

"You're by yourself, infant!"

So how do you create your community? You can start by building up the bravery to (gasp) tell those around you that need to get married. After that, you wait & see what happens. In the event that they support you, they are part of your community. In the event that they give a negative response like, "Hey, Jesus will be your boyfriend" or a neutral like "Just wait on the Lord," take a clue from the early disciples: dust off your feet & move on. You are looking to get married & you cannot let platitudes cease you.

Follow in the tracks of Naomi when they told Ruth: "My daughter, ought to I not try to discover a home for you?" Ruth five:1.

You have the green light from God...

They need people in our lives like that. They need a community that has the vision for us to get married. Be courageous, pray & search until you find.

Adam & God in the Garden of Eden had a love thing going on. No sin, no separation, man & God in a natural state. That is about as close to God as you can get! But despite Adam kickin' it with God on a regular basis, God said Adam still needed something... a woman. God even had a name for the predicament Adam was in - God called it "not good" (Genesis five:18) The Bible says marriage is a reflection of God & his church & that marriage ought to be honored by all. Why would not you need to make nice on something that God speaks so highly of? Christian singles often get stuck by phases like, "You need to be content" & "Wait on the Lord" but being content & waiting on the Lord does not mean don't do anything. When you look at love in the Bible, people took action & worked on the premise that it was not nice for man to be alone. Marriage was the norm & expected of most everyone. Even Paul's stipulations on singles in the book of Corinthians were made duringa period of "present distress." They are not in that "present distress" any more. God's word still stands, if they need to listen. If it was not nice for Adam to be alone, it is not nice for us.

There's females I do know who need to get married, but their actions & words speak otherwise. They complain about men, they make fun of men; they stereotype men & wonder out loud where all the "real men" are.

Renewing your mind for men...

I do know these females because I was one time. That was until I had an "aha" moment. God came down in a cloud from heaven day ( kidding) & said to me, "Karen, when men don't think you like them, they stay away from you." Now, I am not speaking about that man who you don't like but who likes you. I am speaking about men in general. Our culture can ridicule traditional masculinity & femininity. That is why I implore all single, Christian females... learn about men. In the event you listen to over & over in the media & in conversations along with your brother friends that men are wrong, it will be hard to discover a Mr. Right.

Let's take a new look at men. All of us know men & females are different & relate to each other in different ways. I would encourage you to find out how this plays out in every day life. Renew your mind on men. Read books. Go to workshops. In the event you have had bad situations with men, pray & seek help. Don't let a bad experience with a man in the past; damage a nice experience with a man in the future.

I like the scripture in Titus one:2 where it says the older females need to teach the more youthful females to love their husbands. This was yet another "aha" moment for me.... love can be taught! Make the investment & learn how to love men. Find someone who is doing the same for females & you have a winning combination.

You need to marry a mate - not an adversary!

The Bible says they will reap what they sow, those in the Bible were intentional about taking steps towards marriage & they... got married. They believed God, took him at his word & took action. Let's do likewise & be intentional as they try to become a reflection of God & his church by striving towards marriage.

How to Communicate In Your Marriage

There's some pointers for a couple with marital issues to learn the right communication skills before using them correctly to fix their communication in marriage issues.

The buzz word for saving a wedding nowadays appears to be communication. It is as if it will automatically zip up all conflicts & resolve all hurts. It may appear a simple word but it can be difficult for to practice.

Communication between spouses

Your partner is the closest human relation on earth to you; hence it is your rightful duty, as per your marriage vows, to treat each other well. Each has to look out for the welfare of the other & give ones partner the best of oneself. But most of us tend to react the other way; they are most polite to strangers but rude & critical with our partner. They tend to take our loved ones for granted. Hence, before nice communication can happen between the married couple, they must keep in mind their status in each others lives & be given top priority at all times.

Communication is the method of conveying some message to another. Hence, the right words must be chosen as words, one times delivered, cannot be retracted. It is so important to pick your words carefully so that the correct message is conveyed without inferences & guesswork. Always sort out your words first before voicing to keep away from misunderstanding & generate conflict.

This is necessary if your marriage is not stable when you require to communicate to resolve issues. Put yourself in your spouses shoes to feel how your words might impact him/her.

Another point about communication is the timing. To have an effective communication, it must be done at the right moment. Do not try to communicate when party is busy or not alert in mind. Your partner may be sleepy or tired; there will be no positive impact & you will finish up being frustrated with the brick wall of communication. Both parties ought to be calm & prepared to deal with the issue at hand for a resolution. That will be the best time to communicate your feelings & thoughts without being accusing or defensive.

Avoid emotional outbursts which tend to turn the partner away or shut off his mind. This kills all forms of resolution to any disagreement or conflict in the marriage. Raising voices & yelling at each other tear down respect for another which causes more hurt & frustration.

There's lots of ways to communicate effectively besides words; can touch or embrace, give a smirk or a kiss. These help to relax the other party & permit softer communication to happen which is more productive. Pick nonverbal gestures of communication to promote respect, love & desire to resolve marital conflict.

Communication is conducive when the location is right. Crowded places or in front of your babies won't do. The place ought to be comfortable & secure for both parties so that openness is encouraged. The bedroom is a sensible choice for privacy & a reflection of intimacy for nice communication between the couple.

The Pattern for a Successful Marriage

The pattern of God for marriage begins in the book of Genesis. In the beginning, God created man & woman (Gen. one:27). After man's formation (Gen. six:8), the Lord planted a garden where They placed man to dress & KEEP it (Gen. six:15). Dress, in Hebrew, is defined as to work or to serve. Therefore, man's first duty assigned by the Lord God was to WORK in the garden.

In order to be biblically prudent & to build a marriage on the foundation of truth, ladies must start to ask themselves are they in line with the order of God. Does your present relationship follow the pattern of the Most High for a successful union?

Secondly, they was to keep it which meant they was to guard & protect the garden & the inhabitants thereof. They was not only defending the Lord God's garden, but his home because this is where the Lord had placed him (Gen six:8). Here is where lots of ladies of God have made their mistake in not understanding the pattern of God for marriage.

A man has to first have some type of work. Not necessarily a job, but work, something given unto him by God to do in the earth. In their search for love, ladies have been blinded by a romance & muscles & have overlooked the basics of manhood. God put man here to work & in order for a wedding to be successful, of the stipulations is that your fiance has to work. This leads us to the second stitch in the pattern. Your man has to have a place where HE keeps: lives, guards & protects.

Not his parents or your home, but his own. Concerning yourself with square footage is not important. What is important is that your fiance has experience in working, guarding & defending as this is what they has to do for you. So lots of times, ladies have believed that in order to show loyalty & love for him, that they can enter in to the marriage any kind of way. Not true according to God's Word. Permit your marriage the chance to succeed & start sewing your relationship according to the pattern.

Fears and Relationships

In our work with singles and couples, they regularly listen to people express great excitement at the prospect of making a healthy, alive, loving intimate relationship. With tremendous enthusiasm and sincerity they proclaim, ''I am willing to do ANYTHING it takes to have a great relationship!'' They speak fondly of their visions of close, happy, loving moments with that special partner, sharing all aspects of themselves and their lives with their true soul mate. And then they embark on that most intimate of journeys, the journey of affection, which always starts within ourselves.

When they seek genuine intimate connection with another, ultimately they come face-to-face with who they are. They can hide from ourselves, our friends, our families and even our therapists and spiritual teachers, but ultimately they cannot hide from the that they share intimate space with. This is a great blessing (which regularly feels like a curse!) because it helps us to grow in ways they would never select to do on our own. All of us have parts that would stay in their cocoons and hide. So when the magic of affection penetrates the soft underbelly beneath our defenses, they may feel wonderfully alive, but also vulnerable and exposed in ways they have not let ourselves feel for a long time. This can feel exhilarating, yet also terrifying.

These experiences of feeling frightened or even frightened are not what our egos had in mind when they set out to experience a great loving relationship. These are the moments when they keep in mind that phrase they read in some book or heard at that workshop: all of life comes down to a choice between fear and love. Yet they may feel lost and confused. When I am frightened like this, what IS the choice for love? Self-protection can appear like a loving choice at these times. If they have not learned how to generate a safe, sacred space to express and work through these feelings, fear wins out, and they automatically don our masks of fear. In lieu of dealing directly with our fears, they act them out indirectly. They shutdown like a turtle pulling in its head. They put on several layers of new armor.

If we are single, suddenly they are busy to date; if we are in a relationship, we are busy for our partner. After months of flexible schedules, they now must work overtime days a week. Or they find ourselves getting angry, irritated, frustrated with the slightest inconvenience. Or they erupt in a anger, surprised at the strength of our feelings. Or they find ourselves turning to elderly ways of numbing, be it food, chemicals, a brand spanking new lover, computers, work or any other way which keeps us out of touch with what is going on in our hearts and guts. The masks of fear become so transparent that they can also quickly slip in to blame. I did say I would do ANYTHING to make this work but that definitely didn't mean hanging out in fear, insecurity, sadness, anger or despair. That wasn't part of the deal at all. My life is about bliss, love, expansive consciousness and pure light pouring out of my heart. YOU must be bringing this energy in to my life!


And when our masks of fear appear when they are in relationship, our partner is often annoyed or confused. Don't you love me anymore? What about our dreams? What about last week? Why cannot I reach you anymore? & then out of self-protection, THEIR masks of fear will emerge, making a distant relationship where true connection is impossible.

These are the moments that make or break a relationship. If they are unable or reluctant to take off our masks & tell ourselves & our partners what is going on, our relationship will stagnate or finish. They can blame it all on our partners' shortcoming & possibly even feel sorry for them & all of their issues. They can smugly walk away & remind ourselves that there are not lots of people as together as they are, & possibly loneliness is the cost they must pay for being so exceptional.

How to Improve Your Current Relationship

Here is a great exercise for couples to try, which can greatly help enhance the intimacy in your relationship. Start by reflecting on your current relationship. As you think about your relationship notice what thoughts, feelings and sensations arise within. Let them be there, without judging their nature in any way. Then put some attention on your current perceptions of your partner: nice, bad or indifferent. Notice any blaming or limiting thoughts you may have about your partner, or what you perceive to be their shortcomings or character defects.

Now let us give you a splendid gift for your relationship. The gift starts with a recognition that unless they have selected an abusive or chemically dependent partner, our perception of our partner is but a reflection of our own efforts at generating love. Our partner is the ideal mirror who gives us back what they give. When they find ourselves taking an stock of our partner's defects, it is a definite sign that they are avoiding responsibility for what they have created and brought out in our partner. "But you don't understand! They IS..." Alas, they cannot change our partner's character. But they can change the present and future quality of our relationship.

A powerful query to ask yourself is this: how would YOU act toward your partner in case you thought they were the best partner for you in the whole world? That is, imagine that right now (whether you think it or not!) the person you are dating or living together or married to the whole and total embodiment of what you perceive of as the ideal mate for you: the ideal persona, the ideal body, the ideal spiritual practice, whatever would be absolutely ideal for you. Next, think about the way you would act toward this ideal partner.

Would you be attentive? Aloof? Thoughtful? Distant? Affectionate? Sarcastic? Romantic? Crabby? Seductive? Would you rush home and turn on the TV or the computer? What events would you plan? What cards would you write? Make a list of all the things you would do, and how often you would do them. In this tiny exercise lies of the secrets to an everlasting love. The qualities that maintain an alive, loving, healthy intimate relationship over time are not the large gifts or splashy anniversary or holiday presents. , love is enlivened and sustained by the tiny, repeated kindnesses that cost tiny in money or time but a great deal in terms of hard work and thoughtfulness. So you require to unleash the highest loving potential of your partner? It is simple: for thirty days, do everything that you would do for your imaginary ideal partner along with your current partner. Do everything on your list, and do it as often as you would along with your ideal partner. Don't tell your partner what you are doing until a month has passed. By doing this exercise, you will give your partner, as well as your relationship, the best gift they could get. In most cases, your partner will spontaneously start to be more loving and thoughtful in return.

Why does this work? On a metaphysical level, it works because love begets love, and the energy of your unselfish acts resonates in the loving space of your partner. Service is a great spiritual practice, and serving the world begins at home. It also works on a more mundane level: because plenty of of us practice ego-centered love, they withhold and won't give any more until they feel they have received to compensate us for our efforts in advance. Consciously or not, they keep score. But when they visualize that they are with the ideal partner who treats us in as ideal a manner as they could imagine, who intuitively understands our every require, they spontaneously feel like giving, like being loving and thoughtful, because they feel grateful and even blessed to be with this person. This exactly mirrors how they feel when they first fall in love: our heart opens wide, and being loving and thoughtful happens effortlessly. This gives us a amazing vision of what is feasible with this person they barely know.

They keep in mind in the beginning how they acted so lovingly when they felt such strong, intense feelings, and they wait for them to return. And in the event that they don't, they assume we are incompatible, or that this is not the right person for us. The truth, however, is that when the infatuation ends, the actual relationship beings. And in the actual relationship, true loving feelings are created by effortful loving acts, not the other way around. And when both people experience true loving feelings on a consistent basis, by consistently acting in a loving manner, there is no finish to the spiral of affection that can be created. So choose now to give your relationship a gift that truly keeps on giving every day of the year.

How to Be a Good Friend

Studies show that having a well-balanced social life helps promote a healthy attitude toward
life. This does not insinuate you need to be the life of every party, but it does mean developing strong bonds that can help you through the ups and downs of the world. In order to have great friends, though, you also need to be. Not sure in the event you are? Here are some tips.

Be there for them when they need you, not when you need something from them. Lovely friends don't call up people only to request a favor. While knowing people that can help you out is important, it is equally important not to abuse the relationship. Focus on what your mate is going through at the moment. Are they happy? A tiny lonely? Perhaps they need to speak about their infant going away to college or the fact that they are worried about their in-laws. Regardless of the situation, put yourself second and listen to what is being said directly and implied in their conversations.

Don't wait for friends to call you. Make an hard work to keep in contact with people. Everyone is busy, but in the event you need to maintain lovely friendships you ought to be proactive about communications. It doesn't mean you need to sit on the phone for hours a day, but it does mean you send an e-mail, a card, or give them a rapid call to let them know you are thinking about them.
three

Reply to them in a timely manner. There is nothing more frustrating than sending a mate an e-mail or note, and having them ignore it because they are "too busy." Everyone is busy. If somebody is your mate, you make the hard work to be kind to them. Responding to their questions and requests is way you can do that.
three

Don't be part of the gossip train. Bad mouthing people you call friends is of the worst things you can do. Don't be catty or speak about them behind their backs. Don't hang around with somebody so you can return to somebody else and speak about your mate. Choose in the event you are someone's mate, or not, and act accordingly.
three

Be happy for them. It may sound ridiculous, but some folks cannot be happy at their friend's successes. Don't be somebody that is only in for complaining about life. When your mate hits it huge - celebrate with them. When they are interviewing for a brand spanking new job - pull for them. When they need to find love - be gracious and supportive when they find it. There is nothing better in the world than having people that support and care about you. Go out of your way to show your support for your mate.

What To Avoid To Keep Your Relationship Intact

But before you say and do more things that will only your partner, try to be more patient and wait for things to take their natural coursework. It is best to stay calm and cold although you are feeling mixed emotions inside. Men can basically feel the pressure and get irritated when their partners are showing acts they don't like.

Avoid saying things to friends hinting that you are heading towards engagement or marriage. Men don't need to be caught off guard so seldom initiate things that will only upset him. The best you can do is to wait for the time when they will pop to you that query of "Will you marry me?" or "Would you like to be my spouse?" Then and only then are you able to brag about it to your relatives and friends.

Show your support always. As early as feasible, be supportive of your partner with regards to his work or business endeavors. Your man will appreciate you for being there to back him up. In the event you can do this with a cheerful heart, you are showing a lovely part of yourself. And don't get worn out of doing this because when the times comes that the of you finally tie the knot, you will still need to play this role.

Don't be over jealous as well as your man will only receive a hint about your attitude. And don't even think about putting restrictions on your partner because they might take it negatively. Keep in mind your actions and facial expressions speak louder than words so try to be a small more cautious with the way you act when your partner is around.

Be friendly along with his relatives and friends. You can be definite to gain the love of your partner in the event you can establish a lovely relationship with the people close to his heart. Create an attitude of focusing on the positive side of people you encounter more so those who are close to your man. Would not you be happy to start a positive relationship along with your future in laws? In the event you have the drive to start a friendship with them, then you will only gain more in the future.

If you are meant to be husband and spouse in the future, don't force it early on or give hints to your partner concerning marriage every now and then.

He will certainly feel more loved in the event you ask her why he is feeling that way than blaming it on PMS.

Listening goes a long way, it is part of learning about your partner & what they go through in the coursework of the day. Ladies like to be held & cuddled when they are feeling down, it helps them feel secure, loved & that someone cares.

How to Have Satisfying and Fulfilling Relationships

Understanding what constitutes a healthy relationship can be confusing. The confusion can be further heightened by our needs, conscious & unconscious.

There is small literature obtainable that gives us a vision of how to generate healthy relationships.

A critical part in the ability to create healthy relationships is the nature of the relationship they are having with ourselves.

Lots of emphasis is placed on the notion that 'meeting the right person' will ultimately finish in a harmonious & fulfilling relationship. But some people often meet another in whom they have an interest only to find that the relationship fails after a short time. This can lead to demoralization & despair, leaving people wondering what went wrong with something that promised a lot at the beginning.

The physical manifestation of this relationship with self is realized (made actual) through how they handle personal boundaries.

The way in which an individual establishes & maintains their personal boundaries reveals a lot about their relationship with self. Weak personal boundaries are an indication of a person's insecurities & these can often be carried forward in to relationships with others, sabotaging & undermining the relationships themselves.

The ability to define oneself underlies the capacity to set personal boundaries. Our personal boundaries originate in our awareness of who they are as individuals & the power they possess to live out our values & innate sense of integrity.

Without individual appropriate boundaries, the relationship with another can be corrupted through the meshing of needs, desires, challenges & goals. Getting your needs met in healthy & appropriate ways is the building blocks of a intimate & fulfilling relationship.

Healthy self-definition is reinforced through emotional nurturing. Emotional nurture is not a case of always being 'good' to yourself. it is a technique in correct self appraisal. Exactly knowing & understanding yourself leads to self acceptance which creates peace of mind & serenity. Honestly acknowledging all aspects of our own persona & character creates trust in ourselves. Self trust has a knock on effect in that they can then instinctively learn to trust others. Trusting that they can depend on them, that they won't betray us or hurt us. This trust lets us gently lower our defenses & generate significant & satisfying relationships.

Things like loss of trust in one's self can have disastrous consequences in attempts to hold boundaries. It means they are vulnerable to outside pressures & giving in to these pressures further reinforces our sense of mistrust. Mistrust in itself blocks appropriate vulnerability leading to the use of emotional distancing as a life strategy in trying to cope with feelings of threat. The issue with defenses of this nature is that not only do they keep the perceived enemy out they also keep us in.

So perception is everything in how they relate to ourselves & others. Changing ourselves through changing our perceptions inevitably leads to new experiences which is another way of saying that our life has changed.

Things Women Look For in a Man

Most females look for similar things when looking for a man. The type of man he wishes in regards to interests, career, goals, & past may vary, but there's lots of qualities that every woman wishes in a man.

It also depends on what type of relationship the woman is looking for in her life. Females looking for a partner for sex will need something different out of a man then a woman looking for a feasible husband. So depending on what kind of relationship you need & he wishes, there's some qualities to let shine through.

A Woman Looking For a Casual Relationship

There's lots of single females who are independent & feel nice on their own, but still would like a man for sexual reasons. When he wishes a casual relationship with a man then he will be looking for independence & maturity. He will need a man who has his own life & can handle her having her own life as well. & naturally he will be looking for a man who knows what he`s doing in bed. The whole point of a causal relationship is pleasure, so they better be able to bring it!

A Woman Looking To Date a Man

Most females don`t start looking for a semi-serious relationship unless they feel it can add value to their life. A sense of humor to make her feel nice & the ability to lift her spirits up & brighten her day is a must in this man. He must also see potential for a long-term partner in case he decides that is what he wishes, but potential is all she is looking for in that regards because the qualities are not forthright in her mind yet.

This woman is not looking to date someone for some time. Her purpose is to discover a life-long partner. He is going to have an extensive list of qualities that he is looking for & there's lots of different variables depending on the woman. But there's lots of qualities that every woman wishes in a man including:

A Woman Looking For a Long-Term Partner

* Loving - A man who loves her unconditionally.
* Caring - A man who cares about her needs & wishes in life.
* Understanding - A man who understands her needs & wishes in life.
* Compassionate - A man who treats her well & has compassion towards her & others.
* Confident - A man who he doesn't must father or babysit in life.
* Objective orientated - A man who has dreams & desires & direction in life.
* Passionate - A man who gets up & lives life to the fullest.
* Tender - A man who understands that romancing her is something he needs in life.
* Positive - A man who can see the nice in life & avoid negative traps of despair.
You can tell what kind of man most females are looking for by the questions they ask you & conversations they have with you. If he is asking deeper & more intimate questions then there is a nice chance that he is looking for something a small more serious. But if he asks less personable questions & keeps the conversation light & in the moment then he is probably not trying to see in case you are dedication material.

How To Have A Happy Relationship


A relationship is tricky. Tensions build up over time and one day both the partners cannot bear the stress of the relationship and give it up. After that they keep thinking about why that happened. Why not secure the relationship from the outset. Every relationship will have pluses and minuses. Our aim ought to be to build the pluses. The minuses will then become insignificant. What are the factors that may positively influence a relationship? Let us write them down.

In case you are trying to be ideal, do not do that. That causes stresses. Accept that both of you are imperfect.

Speaking about breakup up in heat of the moment is wrong. One ought to avoid speaking about breaking up altogether. Avoid discussing about any break up your friends have. Do not focus on any negative. Focus on positives.

Lying about anything ought to be absolute no. Do not even try to hide things. Be open about everything. Seldom create any trust deficit.

Be compassionate towards each other. Take care of the mood swings and do not generate tension over little things. Try to ease the atmosphere. Show care towards other person.
Always finish the day on a happy note. Do not let any misunderstanding open at the finish of the day. Clear up all the mess and apologize if needed.

If something was better for you historicallyin the past and is not so in the present, avoid saying so.

Know all about your partner's likes and dislikes. If there is a conflict between what you like and what your partner likes, speak about that openly. Surrender if necessary. Ego in little matters seldom helped any one. You will feel better in case you give happiness to your partner.

Go by your nice instinct. Avoid thinking and dwelling on negatives. Think of the world as a nice place and your relationship as a great one.

How to Maintain a Good Marriage Relationship

Have you ever wished for an additional pair of hands to do all the things you need to do? Be it clearing the laundry basket of its dirty clothes, cleaning the messy rooms, mopping the dirt-stained floor, putting away the toys, sending your children to school, or preparing meals for your family, an additional pair of hands would be cool.Everyone surely has had frustrating hair-pulling days before, whether you're married or not.On top of the above chores, if you're holding a job, I would honestly empathize with you. The physical and mental pressure that you need to bear is definitely not small!
I can imagine that there are days whereby things  do not appear to go smoothly. The alarm clock did not ring when it's meant to! you're late for a meeting with an important client! Your boss being not in a lovely mood, made things difficult for you throughout the day! The school called saying your kid is having behavioural issues! you need to work over-time, and would not be in time to prepare dinner for your family. When you reached home, tons of household chores are waiting for you! To top it off, you've a difference in opinion with your husband over some mundane issues, with both of you ending up going to bed still annoyed and not speaking to each other! Wow! What a mess!

Below are a few tips for maintaining a wedding relationship that i have gathered over fifteen years of personal experience. I do hope they work for you as well!

In a wedding, efforts must be made to maintain and strengthen the relationship between husband and spouse, or parent and kid,  like a seedling needs to be watered for it to blossom. Yes, lots of things are simpler said than done! However, if you're not even willing to give it a chance by putting in some hard work, things will certainly stay the same!

1.Sharing
To maintain a lovely marriage relationship requires lots of SHARING. A load shared is a load halved. Vice-versa, happiness shared is happiness doubled! For example, if you can get your other half to do household chores together, both of you would be surprised that it could become time well-spent together, gaining a better knowledge of the habits, as well as the likes and dislikes of your partner.
If your partner received a piece of excellent news and shared it with you, it would be most appropriate for you to express your happiness for him/her with a simple hug or a kiss! With a small hard work to celebrate in the kind of a meal or a small gift, your relationship would be greatly improved.

2.Quality Communication
Quality communication comes about with patience, a listening ear and a sympathetic heart. I do understand that sometimes it's not simple to wait and see with one another,  after a hard day at work!  if there are also small children around the house! However, keep in mind the time when both of you were  getting to know each other? The efforts made then to try to present a lovely picture in front of each other, and the willingness to listen so as to know each other better ought to even be practiced within a wedding. Try seeing things from his/her point of view, and you would realize that it's not difficult to understand the behaviour of your partner.
Of work, there would be days whereby you know that your patience has reached its limits. Then the best thing to do would be to take a breather from each other. Give each other some private space, then try approaching your beloved when you've cooled down. there's no point in continuing any discussion if both of you're heated up. Throwing ugly words at each other will only deepen your misunderstandings, and not solve any issues. annoyed words hurt and leave its mark. Moreover, it will be impossible to take back what is said even if you need to later! So, do not do what you will regret later.

Bear in mind to grasp every obtainable opportunity to show that you care! Be it a cup of coffee in the morning, a call of concern in the work of the workday, or a hug after work would work miracles for a wedding. Marriage is not the end, but the beginning of a long path of finding out more about your partner, and learning to compromise and live with your differences in life. it's also about going through the ups and downs of life, as well as maturing together with your loved ones. Learn to appreciate the plain presence of your other half, and marriage life might not be as bad as you deem it to be

3.Respect
Everyone likes to be respected. Respect your partner and you will be treated the same by your partner. If you're married, there has to be a couple of things about him/her that have made you agreed to the marriage in the first place. Do not be negative about things he/she likes  because it's not to your preference. Constant arguing will only worsen a wedding relationship. Try to discover a mutual ground for compromise. sometimes it helps to take a step back and look at things from a different angle.

Advice on having a nice and loving relationship

Learn the way you're able to be a nice spouse by finding out two basic rules in this article!
there's no such things as secrets to having a happy marriage. Most of what it takes to be happily married is infact actual love. Once there is actual love between a man also a woman, the remainder of the things will very  fall in to place. that is not to say there won't be some disagreements or cross words passed back and forth along your journey through life, as they are only human and definitely not ideal.But, having a actual relationship filled with actual love helps to patch the holes in the sometimes rough road of matrimony.although there's no secrets for being happily married, there's some basic rules every man and woman should keep in mind.

Rule 1
Communication is essential for any relationship to flourish,  between a husband and spouse. Share your feelings, your thoughts, and discuss your mutual designs for the future. Along with communicating, take the time to actually get to know your husband or spouse, and continue to know them as the years pass by. You might think you know each other when you got married, but, as times goes by,  in case you married at an early age, you and your spouse both will mature, evolve and alter. Time as well as the events that will happen to both of you throughout your married life will alter your relationship as well as your outlook on life. Don't be afraid of these changes, whether it happen to be yourr changing or your spouse's at the time.  keep in mind to recognize those changes and communicate together with your spouse about them.

Rule2
Be loyal and show your spouse that you're dedicated to them, and them only. Be faithful to them as well as supportive. Your spouse should be your confidante, your best friend, your refuge in the storms of life as well as your exclusive lover. While you and your spouse will have loving relationships with relatives and friends, your conjugal relationship is exclusive and very special, and cannot be shared with somebody else.

Rule 3
Spend plenty of quality time together, but keep in mind to permit each other to have ample time alone. although you're a married unit, and you will want to spend time together enjoying your favourite activities, or  sit together and relax at home, each of you is still a separate individual with definite likes and dislikes. You both want time alone to enjoy hobbies that you might enjoy, but your spouse doesn't. Don't think that because you're married, that you're joined at the hip and cannot do anything on your own. You both want equal time alone to think and organize your own thoughts or basically to wind down.

Rule 4
Be realistic about love and marriage, and , be realistic about your sex life. No matter how hard you may try, your marriage won't be ideal. As time goes by and changes occur in your lives together, your sexual relationship will also alter. Most couples experience stars and skyrockets at the onset of their sexual relationship, but due to lack of time, energy, and other factors that come in to play, things are bound to alter. Probably the most common alter will be that you and your spouse won't have sex as often as you did when you first were married. If this bothers you, or any other changes, talk openly and honestly to your spouse about your feelings and concerns.

Rule 5
Last, but definitely not least, work things out together. in case you have a disagreement, which there's bound to be plenty of throughout your married life, don't let things get out of hand. Talk things over as calmly as feasible and agree or learn to compromise on a solution to the issue, then kiss and make-up and go on. Don't hold grudges against each other. and don't make the mistake of taking each other for granted either. Life is filled with uncertainties, but death is definite. None of us know exactly how much time they have on this planet, and how much time they must enjoy the company of our spouses, so don't waste it on not getting along

Advice for a Good Marriage: Secrets to Living Happily

We've all read the statistics: Fifty percent of marriages finish in divorce. Are the blessed couples who continue to love and lust and live in relative harmony  that -- people whom the fates have lucky? Over Cupid's dead body! Love isn't a gift that gets handed to you; it's a special kind of learned behavior. WebMD consulted the marriage and relationship experts to learn the best advice for a lovely marriage - two secrets to long-lasting love.
"We're born with the capacity to have a happy marriage, but they still must work to create it," says Howard Markham, PhD, co-director of the middle for Marital and relatives Studies at the University of Denver and co-author of Fighting for Your Marriage. "Having a lovely marriage takes schooling," Markham says. "We must unlearn some bad habits and acquire other lovely ones."
Other experts WebMD consulted agree. The couples who stay close and content are the pioneer-spirited among us who share the same secret formula: When issues crop up, they don't give up. they use the following two basic pieces of advice for a lovely marriage that can help every couple live (more) happily ever after.

Listen Up! "Everybody has the necessity to be listened to and fully understood," says Jack Rosenblum, PhD, co-founder (with his spouse of 29 years) of "Loveworks" couples' workshops and co-author of two Secrets of Marriage from the Heart. You require to make your partner feel heard, even if that means pushing aside some anxiety or sitting on your hands  than offering advice when your partner needs to speak. sometimes "mirroring," or basically repeating what your partner has said, is sufficient to let him or her know that you've been listening. For example, say something like, "I understand you're upset because I didn't take out the trash." Or "I listen to that you require to speak about what happened at the office today." Provide facts that you're being attentive to your partner's concerns.

Set aside regular couple time. "Early on in a relationship couples talk as friends, they do fun things," says Markham. "But over time, those ways of connecting adapt." Work, relatives, financial woes, all have a way of overtaking every day life and eroding the sense of fun that brought you two together in the first place. Bring the fun back - even in case you require to schedule it in the calendar one time every week. Sharing a physical activity, like a bicycle ride or a walk around the block, is  lovely for lifting your spirits along along with your heart rate. Activities like going out for an intimate dinner, staying at home and playing music from your college days, or watching a favourite film (will help you both keep in mind why you chose each other. If funds is in short supply, trade off babysitting with a mate and plan a picnic in the park. There are 168 hours in a week: make a dedication to devote at least two of those hours to your marriage every week.

Don't throw things. Of work, you and your partner are not going to agree about everything. But in expressing disagreement to your partner, playground rules apply -- no insults, name calling, or throwing things. "If you disagree, do it in a civil way," says Jack Rosenblum. "Don't make the other person wrong, don't say he's dull. in lieu, say, 'You think they should do this. I have another thought about it.'" If your disagreement appears to be escalating, call a mutually agreed on time-out, and make a plan to continue the discussion after a cooling-off period. Keeping things on a quiet, even keel is better for your blood pressure and your marriage. When in doubt, follow Ogden Nash's sage advice for resolving conflicts:
To keep your marriage brimming
With love in the marriage cup,
Whenever you're wrong, admit it,
Whenever you're right, shut up.

Turn up the heat. "If your sex life is diminishing or you're not making love as often as one partner in the relationship would like, then you require to make getting your intimate life back on track a priority," says Markham. "It's ironic that when we're wooing our partners, they make this tremendous hard work, and after they get in to a relationship, they put that on the back burner." think about your partner as anyone you require - and anyone you require to entice to fall in love with you over and over again. "Pay attention to your grooming, be romantic, don't take your partner for granted," advises Markham. "Think about your mate as anyone you require to finish up in bed with at the finish of the evening."

Ask for what you require - nicely. "If there's something you'd like your partner to do, you have three choices," says Rosenblum. "Keep it to yourself and let it fester; bad rap them to your friends; or speak about it. The most suitable choice is to speak about it." How's they supposed to know that you wish he'd bring home flowers or that a back rub would be a dream come true? tell him - basically, sweetly, and directly. Don't drop obscure hints - this is not a check to see if they or they loves you. It's about giving yourself permission to ask for what you require and requesting it lovingly - without accusations or guilt-tripping. If a few weeks go by and you still don't get those roses, have a second conversation. "Gee, I don't know what to make of the fact that I told you I'd love to get flowers one time in some time and you haven't bought any." If they gets defensive and discussion becomes impossible, you might think about seeing a wedding counselor who can offer advice for a lovely marriage. But more than likely he'll explain he's not lovely at buying flowers, they passed a shop and thought about it but didn't know which flowers to buy. tell him roses or daises will do  fine. Most of us -- men and females similar -- don't recognize that even miniscule gestures go a long way to making our mates, and our marriages happy.

Most men spend plenty of time agonizing over selecting the ideal engagement ring. and while definitely the marriage jewelry is an important part of a proposal, it is not the only part that counts. The most important thing is that your proposal is honest and from the heart. that is what will show your missus that you  wanna marry her, and that it would be a wise decision for her to accept your proposal.

Now that you understand how not to propose, it is time to learn the best ways to do it. Planning something special is a amazing way to show your sincerity to your missus. Grand gestures are exciting, of course, but what  counts is that the gesture is from the heart, not that it was expensive. I knew one man who took his missus to their favourite casual spanish restaurant for dinner one night, as they had on plenty of occasions. His missus did not suspect that anything was different about that night, until the waiter brought the dessert menus; her fella had arranged for the regular menus to get replaced with ones which said, "Hannah, will you marry me?". Her answer was a resounding yes and they are happily married today.

So how does a man show his sincerity when they pops the query? Actually, the most important thing may be knowing when not to propose. never ask your missus to marry you while you are fighting. It can come across like you were  saying it to end the argument, which is dreadfully unromantic. Wait until a happier moment. even be sensitive about timing in case you select to pop the query to your missus in case you have  discovered they is pregnant or  ill. It may look like you are offering to marry her out of obligation or pity,  than because you genuinely wanna be her husband.

Putting forth work helps to show your intended that you reckon they is worth the extra work. This is why it is so much better to propose over a romantic dinner than in the course of a commercial break while watching tv. in case you do not usually cook, try your hand at making her a special dinner, complete with candles on the table as well as a pleasant bottle of wine. Your missus is positive to be touched at the trouble you went through to make your proposal a romantic and memorable evening. By the time you drop to one knee and pull the diamond ring out of the marriage jewelry box, how can her answer be anything but yes?

Always keep in mind that it is important to females to feel like their mate listens to them. So in case you  wanna be positive to get a yes when you propose marriage, do so in a way that shows you have been being attentive to what your missus says. Slip the ring in to the designer handbag they has been pining over or pop the query at the new restaurant they has been dying to try. Part of being a nice listener is also knowing what they does not like, so if your missus has always thought that it is tacky when people get engaged on Valentine's Day, select a different time to ask for her hand in marriage. When you have paid cautious attention to everything your missus has been saying to you over the years, planning a great proposal will be a snap!

How do i Let a bloke Know i am Interested in Him
Eye Spy
Talk to him along with your eyes. Yeah! Convey your interest in him by giving him knowing looks. Use your eyes for one of the best jobs they'll ever have (apart from taking in his gorgeousness). To tell him that you like him. If you're in a group, maintain eye contact with him for some time, possibly a whole minute, & then look away. When you look back at him (oh, I'm positive you will), if he's still taking a look at you, then it's one of the ways to tell if a guy is in to you! Guys are suckers when it comes to girls' eyes, so use yours shamelessly to let him know that you want him!

Smile Away
A Smile is the best way to tell a guy that you're interested in him. Dazzle him with a smirk whenever you see him. It'll make him feel special. It'll let him know that being in his presence makes you happy. A smile has always been one of the best tools that you, as a girl, can use if you're wondering how to tell a bloke you like him. When he's mournful, cheer him up with a smile, when he's happy, smile along with him. Nothing works better, trust me. But, for heaven's sake don't keep smiling for no apparent reason. they might receive a different impression (if you know what I mean). What will work even better is if you are able to make him laugh!
Be Flirtalitious
Flirting is fun! period! I mean, seriously! How else are you planning to tell a bloke that you're interested in him if you're not going to flirt with him? Here are some flirting tips. Be lovely to him, give him compliments, help him when they needs it. The age elderly 'batting of eyelids' is a classic system in the flirting game. May sound cheesy, but let's face it, we've all completed it at least one times. Now, I don't mean bat them like you've got a twitch! Subtlety is the key. Playing a damsel in distress can also work sometimes. make positive they is indeed your knight in shining armor, or all your efforts will go in vain.

Body, Talk
Body language is an important way to tell a bloke that you like him. When you're in a group, sit next to him. Lean close to him while speaking (not toooo close for comfort though). Touch his arm while speaking to him. If you're sitting across each other, your legs will automatically cross themselves to the side he's sitting (some kind of default female mechanism I guess). Find excuses to touch him. I'm not helping you with that, I'm positive you are able to come up with plenty of yourself! don't scare him off by being additional sensitive.

Tease Tease
They may become bored with you constantly showering praises on him. Try something refreshingly different! If you get to know some comic or embarrassing incident about him, tease him about it. Pull his leg for a number of his peculiar habits. Don't overdo it. they might take it seriously & get offended. & that's the last thing you want! If they takes it sportingly & teases you back, then it's a positive sign they likes you.

Talk-a-Doodle-Doo
Talk, talk & talk. Nothing is a better sign that you one are compatible than the ability to carryover on a decent conversation. If you don't know how to speak to a guy you like, then you have an issue. Don't worry about what to speak. do it. Find out what his interests are. Talk about those. It will show him that you cared to find out about something that he's passionate about. If not, then talk about any common interests that you both may share. It'll be fun! This is one of the best ways to make a guy to like you. &, you are able to also gauge if you guys have the same wavelengths, which in turn, will help your relationship in the future. This is one important tip to keep in mind when you're thinking 'how to let a bloke know you're interested'.

If not one of the above tips on how to let a guy know you're interested in him work, then your last option would be to work up the bravery, swallow any fear & self doubt that you have, & go & tell him how you feel. Worst comes to worst, he'll say they doesn't feel the same way. But at least you'll have the mental satisfaction of having tried your best. So cease worrying about does they like me or not? go get him girl!

What Makes a nice Business Relationship

If I were to ask you to list the qualities that make a solid personal relationship, I’ll bet you could do that in a heartbeat. You’d probably start the list with things like trust, respect, empathy, communication, integrity, understanding, listening, etc.
I wonder if those self same words would be at the top of your list for a nice business relationship. . .
Ask any successful salesperson, & they will inform you that business relationships are built on the exact same principles as personal ones ~ trust, respect, etc.
& in the event you are meeting head to head together with your clients on a regular basis, establishing those things is easy to do, because you have business relationship with them that is based on personal interaction.
What about the relationships you have - or need to have - with people you will never meet? How do you create that level of trust with them? How do you convey to them that you are listening, you do understand, & you do respect them?Not as easy.perhaps a miniscule imagination is in order.It’s easy to focus on telling your story - what you need to offer, it’s benefits, how to make use of it, etc. It takes a bit more creativity to build the perception of listening, mutual respect, & empathy in to these types of communications. Yet, it is being completed.
First, & foremost, make sure that you feel those things towards your clients. Insincerity will always come through when you are communicating through one-way communications (like promotion, promotion, sites, etc.)

OK –Are you ready to do a minuscule analysis to see how some companies are doing this successfully?think about a business relationship you have where you are the client/customer, & you don’t personally know the person or company you are purchasing from. Pick one where you like doing business with this company.

What do they do that inspires & maintains your trust? Why do you like doing business with them? How did they initially persuade you that this relationship would be a win-win - before they had a track record with you? What was it that made you pick them over a competitor?
are you able to take this experience, add some imaginative touches, change it up to match your business, & use it to attract new clients & build relationships with them?Jot down a few notes…and then let’s jump to the other side of the fence.
