Are You Too Nice?

Being nice is one thing but being too nice is another.  Frankly it can annoy your partner or even be a huge turn off.  Keep that in mind when you are afraid to stand up for yourself.  Setting boundaries not only is good for you but it's also good for your relationship. 

Some people might think it's mean of me to say this but in a healthy relationship both people need to "earn love".  It's not just slip the ring on and for better or worse.  Marriage is an on going thing to take care of.  Becoming complacent is boring.  Not saying what is wrong can lead to underlying anger because you feel you are taken advantage of.  It's best to just spit it out and say what is wrong.  It doesn't mean you have to be rude either just honest. 

Take Out The Trash

Sing with me ladies...

Take out the papers and the trash,

or he won't get a piece of a$$. :o)

Ha, ha, you know you love it!

Really though, this post today is about all those ladies that do EVERYTHING around the house. He can do things and if he didn't have you, he would have to. If you are frustrated because he won't do anything, part of the blame is yours! Yes, I know that is a hard pill to swallow but honestly, if you don't ask most men aren't just going to get off the couch and just do things out of the kindness of their hearts.

Doing everything yourself and not asking for help can build resentment. Ask when you need help, and if he doesn't want to help... just refer to the song above.
