That's good advice for starters, you can add: Make joint decisions in everything eg. Buy a painting, your cutlery/dishes, a car/flat/boat together. It can be fun. Explore & discover new things together. Try out new hobbies together, eg - try a new dance, travel, music lessons, gym together, gardening (if you have),etc I'm sure other members will add from their experience.
I think it should be mutually discussed (idepth) & agreed upon by both parties. I mean nothing worse than to go to a strange country to find your "partner" not waiting at the airport or the address he has given you belongs to, The Local Salvation Army! These days with the economy being what it is - not too many people are going to be like me & say: "Hey Sister! You want to come over to SA - you're welcome to stay 3 months with me"
... yeh, got to make sure the batteries are always well charged up.
Hi RDM, don't know what you're using to recharge your batteries, but seems to be working well for you! You're looking younger by the day - Pray, please reveal your elexior to us mortals!
Yes! Agreed! True Love is not an emotion that can be operated like a switch; on or off! Once a true love always a true love! For those who have split up (other than death); only factor preventing a reconsiliation is EGO! For those who have moved on to newer relationships it becomes a matter of, "If you can't be with the one you love - love the one you're with" IMHO of course! "OK Hun, you can come back now - all's forgiven!"
RE: What do you prefer?
A healthy body,mind & soul.An open & loving heart.
A keen & intellectual brain.
A healthy bank balance.
I thank God, for he has given me all of the above except option 4.
That's work in progress!
