What is a “good” relationship?

Hi there! That is a very personal question, I know. Here are my personal feelings on the question. If my wife says that something is important to her, well, then it is automatically important to me too. That is our rule. If she is passionate about something, I am too. It is all about being one with your partner. Don’t ever think there are not disagreements and arguments, they happen. BUT….we work them out. I, being the hard-headed man, usually have to back down and come to the painful realisation, that yes, she was right all along. I over think, over react, over care-take, all the overs. The bottom line is …I love her. I tend to try and be too controlling sometime and she knows how to get my attention and let me know I am being unreasonable and she is usually right. That seems to be the man’s role, to be a jerk and then have his partner clue him in as to where he is wrong. We listen…..well…not well, but we do listen. We need to get over our ego and just admit when we are wrong. Don’t take this as an admission that women are NEVER wrong, they are. They are human too. We all make mistakes and we all screw up. But that is the role of a good relationship. To listen, admit when you are wrong and take your lumps and then kiss and make up. I love my wife and she loves me. She just doesn’t like me some days. That is what it takes to have a good relationship. admit it and you are on your way.
