Expect the closeness and distance you experience with your partner to vary from hour to hour, day to day, and season to season. People experience enough closeness much as they experience enough food—any more leads to discomfort. We all have different capacities.\u003cbr\u003e2. Learn from your experience. Notice what works, and what usually receives a negative reaction from your partner. Do what works and stop doing what does not work. \u003cbr\u003eCommunication \u003cbr\u003e3. Ask your partner for what you want. Contrary to popular belief, your partner cannot and should not read your mind. Asking increases the odds of getting what you want. Be specific. \u003cbr\u003e4. Keep agreements you make with your partner. Keeping agreements builds trust which is the basis of almost everything important.\u003cbr\u003eDifficult Communication\u003cbr\u003e5. Speak in sentences or, at most, paragraphs instead of pages during a difficult conversation. Your partner will only remember the last sentence or two you say and forget the beginning of a long speech. \u003cbr\u003e6. Admit your mistakes—even if you don’t like the way your partner confronts you about them. It is tempting to defend yourself by attacking your partner, but if you do, you both lose in the long run.\u003cbr\u003ePlay \u003cbr\u003e7. Laugh together. Share the jokes or cartoons that make you grin, rent a funny video or remember the stories about funny (especially in retrospect) things you have experienced together.\u003cbr\u003e8. Challenge your partner to resolve a problem with a squirt bottle duel at ten paces. If the situation is really serious, try aerosol whipped cream (at three paces) instead. \u003cbr\u003eTasks \u003cbr\u003e9. Hire someone to do the chores you both hate—or do them together. Start by looking at the things that never seem to get done, probably because neither of you wants to do them.\u003cbr\u003e10. Occasionally do a task that your partner does not expect you to do. Let your partner be pleasantly surprised that s\/he does not need to prepare dinner or mow the lawn.\u003cbr\u003eBoundaries \u003cbr\u003e11. Name the movie you would like to see, or the restaurant you like best, before you ask your partner’s preference. That way you avoid being angry because your partner did not read your mind.\u003cbr\u003e12. Forgo retaliation. If you think your partner is preoccupied and ignoring you, look at the ways you are ignoring your partner and change your own behavior. This works for any behavior you don’t like.\u003cbr\u003eMoney \u003cbr\u003e13. Create shared financial goals. Be sure you discuss and agree on priorities.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTO BE CONTINUED...
