"It's 10 years and still going, day by day, moment by moment. Lessons along the way some harder some easier. But we're here together, not because we need to be, but because we want too."--Boris Kodjoe
"My ex-husband said the reason he cheated on me was that he wanted VARIETY. I thank him for that lesson, because I have brought variety to my marriage with Bo (NEW HUSBAND) and it truly IS the spice of our life! I vary our activities. I vary our fun. I vary our intimacy. I make up silly (but EFFECTIVE) holidays like Husband Appreciation Day, Free Grope Friday, and regular date nights. I leave love notes in unexpected places and at unexpected times. I make his lunch, serve him dinner, and make sure he smiles and laughs every day. I honor him, spoil him, and treat him like the KING he is, and I make sure he knows that he is LOVED and APPRECIATED. And none of these things has ANYTHING to do with CHEATING."--Gail Tennyson Hicks

The road to marriage and a good relationship is not easy. How can we recognize a good relationship and/or make it better?
Good evening everyone! As usual Ms.Doris Barner has picked a great topic....*we won't our liquor license. Everyone please weigh in and enjoy the conversation.
ReplyDelete*inside joke*
Hello, Mr. Givens.
DeleteGreetings Ms.Barner!
DeleteGood evening everyone. I just wanted to say I still haven't figured it out yet. What I have notice is what works in one relationship may not work for another. Again it's all about the dynamic of the relationship.
ReplyDeleteI agree. It's about the character. The heart. And the personality.
Delete*We won't lose our liquor license*
ReplyDeleteNope! *smiling*
DeleteBeing 200% transparent. Honest. And the best person you can be helps too.
ReplyDeleteI agree. You can have a relationship with a fake person. It never works.
DeleteI am always a open book to my love. That's the only way to be to me.
DeleteSo what is you idea of a good relationship? Mine is I don't know...complicated.
ReplyDeleteHealthy.
DeleteThen again it is not. I'm a giver so seeing my man happy and satisfied is priority for me.
ReplyDeleteNo abuse. Love Honesty. Not taking on for granted
DeleteYes.
DeleteHello Curtis
ReplyDeleteGreetings
DeleteTasha!
Hello Doris
ReplyDeleteHello Tasha.
ReplyDeleteAnyone else! Don't be shy
ReplyDeleteIf you both smile more so then not, and to end your conversations with I love you. From both members let me know we good.
ReplyDeleteI agree. It's like always kiss me goodnight. It's something my parents did not matter what. I want to incorporate that into my marriage one day. I hope, God willing, lol.
DeleteIndeed! Amen.
DeleteMe too😊
ReplyDeleteSurrounding yourself with positive influence helps.
ReplyDeleteYes, negativity can cause chaos in a relationship.
DeleteMe too :)
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely Curtis
ReplyDeletePrayer is always a good way to help keep yur relationship good also.
ReplyDeletePrayer is that third robe that strengthen a relationship from the inside right down to the foundation. Praying together is an even greater bond.
DeleteI agree Prayer with each other and for each other is the foundation it's also the ultimate show of love to me.
Delete*third rope* lol.
DeleteAlso what let's me know we good is when your mate gives affirmation of love with out saying..just a smile or a your the best the little things.
ReplyDeleteThat's it right there, simple appreciation.
DeleteGail Tennyson Hicks made some good points about keeping the relationship spicy. I think all couples should find their variety.
ReplyDeleteI agree. Spicy works..
DeleteYes spicy works very well.
DeleteVariety is always a good thing. It can bring out the best in each other.
DeleteTrue indeed!!!
ReplyDeleteBringing a different element into the relationship helps out major.
ReplyDeleteWhen things are good, you don't think so much about the relationship as a whole. However, when crap hits the fan, I believe love and commitment will see you through. You have to hold on be accountable and consistent. Even when you don't feel like working at it.
ReplyDeleteIt lets a person know your in it for the long haul.
DeleteYou are so right!
DeleteKnowing your back is cover through the good and the bad is the ultimate sign (for me) that you're in a good relationship.
DeleteThings like that help you get re-acquainted.
DeleteI agree Curtis
DeleteGood relations embodies a host of good things.Hopeful things. Positive things. Strong things.
DeletePreach!
DeleteAmen Curtis somebody showing out to night loving it...:)
DeleteYour right Doris you have to hold yourself accountable for flaws in your relationship, but don't beat yourself up and nag your mate about things you both agreed was over with.
ReplyDeleteRight it makes you realize things that are really important.
DeleteYou are absolutely correct. Being in a good relationship requires each individuals to let the past go. Holding on to past hurts smothers a relationship with resentment. As for nagging, I can't stand when it's done to me, so I make an effort not to do to other people in or out of a relationship.
DeleteMe too I don't like to argue and or be argued at .

DeleteBringing out the best in each other is a win win
DeleteAbsolutely in your voice Curtis.
DeleteWhen you love someone you love for better or worse if you both know it's worth it.
ReplyDeleteWhen it comes to love there should be no conditions. Everything is as is if it's done right. Love me and my flaws.
DeleteNot saying with conditions saying both are on one accord.
DeleteHowever, don't develop any new flaws, lol. That will upset the apple cart.
DeleteWhat ye say Curtis Givens?
DeleteI understand Tasha on one accord sounds much better.
DeleteIndeed Doris.
DeleteLol!! New flaws
DeleteMy and my friend girl was talking about "new flaws" changing faces we called it.
DeleteYou know.... She cooks you dinner every night for the first 6-months then you get a home cook meal every other weekend, lol.
DeleteThat's a good name for it Tasha. I hear and read men talking about it all the time.
DeleteMen do it too.
DeleteOK I know I see men and women talk about it . I am me and always me and can only get better.
DeleteAs usual it was a great topic. Great conversation. Great back and forth. Thank you Ms.Barner and Ms.Davis. Loook forward to next week. God Bless and Good night
