lonely and desperate

If you’ve ever listened to relationship experts you know that they simply speak common sense. They tell us things we already know, but they’re great at putting it into words and examples that make things easier to understand. The best relationships experts just know how to communicate.

They can say those common sense things in a way we understand. Like the concept of  what to expect and what to give in a relationship. This is one of the best lessons you can get from relationships experts.

As a relationship goes on we often start to take the other person for granted. We don’t thank them as much, and sometimes we don’t do nice things in return for them quite as much.

It’s not that we don’t want to, but that we simply forget or think there will be time later. Remember to be kind and thoughtful, especially after you’ve had a rough patch in your relationship. The experts tell us that that is a good way to maintain a strong relationship.

The second lesson from the experts is to do what will make the other person feel appreciated. Again, this is just common sense, but it is often overlooked. It applies to anytime during a relationship but after you’ve gotten back together from a break up or other bad patch it’s even more important.

To do what the other person wants doesn’t mean you should never consider yourself. But you should try to do what appeals to them to show them that you care. When your boyfriend helps you with the dishes it probably makes you happy - maybe it would make him happy if you helped with one of his chores.

But there may be other ways that help him feel loved. He might like to hear you say you love him often. Whether those things are special to you or not, you need to do them if they are special to him.

Sometimes we forget about that, or we assume that everyone appreciates the same things. But doing what makes the other person feel most special is easy to do, as long as we remind ourselves to do it.

An important lesson from the experts is to treat others with respect. Of course, you respect your boyfriend or girlfriend, but does it always show.Partly this is taking them for granted, but is more than not thanking them or returning their loving gestures.

Often we expect the person we’re closest to to share in our worst days. We might keep them waiting or be inconsiderate in other ways, and not apologize. The relationship experts might remind you to treat your partner with the same respect you would treat a co-worker or your parents.
