We have all been in relations at one time or another. And for the most
part they did not work out, for some reason or another.

What are the little things that matter in relationship?

What is the key to a healthy relationship?

Is there one relationship you had that you think you could of done
things differently?

communication, trust, honesty is a must, laughter,

Ive only had one relationship. Lasted 5 years. If i could have done
anything different, it would have been to not to let him walk all over
me. It was definatly a learning experience.

i think crazysilly said it all =)

like ive always said though ,,

find someone you can talk with , and hold a conversation

cause when you get old, there wont be much else.

I think communication,trust,honesty and COMPROMISE is important.

Sadly my relationship is lacking in a few of those areas but I'm working
on it.

be yourself

Never, ever tell a lie!
People can see it in your eyes...

Honesty
Attraction
Passion
Sincerity
Caring for one another
Listening, even when you think the other's wrong.
All the little things matter in a relationship. I'd rather get a
homemade card, then flowers or chocolates.......Or a little love note on
the mirror in the morning, when I wake up and my honey's gone. Things
like that are always the most special.

I don't think I could've done anything to avoid a breakup in my last
relationship. It was on his end, not mine. He fell out of love with me,
if he was even in love in the first place. This is a good post,
Whisper!!

=P ty shenerd =)

Whisp -- after 86 bad ones and 1 good one, I think I have some ideas
here:

Little things: The ability to say whatever is on your mind, or the
ability to say nothing if it's not needed at the moment -- a shared
interest, and a non-shared interest -- a hug, a quick squeeze, a little
note, a drawing of a heart -- there are ways to say a lot without taking
an hour to do so --

The key: I always go back to communication. Two people who truly
understand each other will always do better than two people who don't.
Two people who are truly willing to listen, and to speak what's on their
minds, knowing the other will be receptive.

Done things differently? -- Honestly, most of them were so pointless
that I wish I had never bothered! (Including the marriage,
pfffffffffffffttttttttttt.)

There are a handful where I really DO wish I had done some things
differently. There were a few that might have worked out much more
positively "if only I had known then what I know now." (Cliche alert.)

The one good one I lost due to other people's interference, and I SHOULD
have seen that one coming. If I had, I'd probably still be with her
today, because I had NO intentions of ever letting that one go!

Live and learn. Hopefully.

Thank you everybody for your posts. It is nice to be able to get an idea
of other people.


And hun, I like your thinking, it was very insightful. thank you
Lex.

Gotta tell ya, WHisper...when I first read the topic of this post
(little things).....I thought you were referring to some tiny penis that
had become a big relationship issue for ya....

(((((whisper)))))
little things like, when you wake up and he brings you coffee
when you drop something and he tells you from far away don't hon, I'll
get it for you

when you are sleepy sitting on the couch and he brings you a blanket

when your cold and he gives you his jacket

those are good little things

and the bad litte things is when he doesn't

dont go to bed angry with each other>
