Normally you’d have to climb a mountain in Tibet or something for this kind of knowledge, so I’m saving you a job here.
It’s being allowed to be honest about yourself, and being with someone who accepts and encourages it.
It’s also the same, the other way around - your partner(s) can be honest about who they are while you accept and encourage them.
Being able to give and receive love, equally.
——————————
Before I start my own cult and charge handsomely for this wisdom, is there anything you’d like to add?  |

Viewing the relationship as a whole, not just a series of isolated incidents. If a bad thing happens step back and see it in the context of the entire relationship.
also whatever happens (with one or two exceptions) have each others back. |

"Aww that’s nice, would just add putting them first always, even before kids, who will one day leave....(hopefully!)"
Yeah. I remember having this conversation with our daughter. She obviously thought as a young teenager that she could get between us on a certain point of family boundary. Her face when I told her that whatever happened her father and I would back each other up was a picture  . She also learned at the same time that as a unit her father and I would back her up too though |

For me trust.
And someone you can talk to about anything 24/7.
This is important as I don't want boring mundane relationship.
I want to be able to surprise her, catch her off guard and let her know she is everything.
One thing I learnt from a previous relationship was I didn't tell her I loved her enough.
I have to admit I got lazy, took her for granted, she was a lovely woman and I fucked it up.
So I've learnt this and hope at some point in my life to make sure that she (whoever that maybe) never has to wait for me to tell her I love her.
Women need to know this |
