The best way I can but I do know I can so so much better


I try to be very patient and not offensive


I don't speak badly of him or complain about him to people and sort any problems out with him rather then going to someone else. Try not to fart in the shower because I know he doesn't like it. Try to look nice for him on our special dates. Want to know his opinion because it means more then anyone elses. Kiss him hello when I see him. Try to make things fair and make him happy. Be honest with him in all situations even if its hard for me to say or for him to hear I think that's respectful too.


Give him space when he needs it. Work hard outside the home to help provide for our family. Also, by being patient, and listening to him.


I keep our finances in order and attempt to keep us on track towards keeping healthy in all aspects of our being. I'm not so great at it.


I will always do and be whatever he needs, give up anything to make him more comfortable and let him know his opinion and views matter


I show respect to my partner by fulfilling what he asks me to do. Also I have no secrets to hide from him.


Being supportive and always there for him


Always listen to his opinions objectively and give him the best advice possible when he asks for it.


I'm pretty good about trying to be supportive, and remaining open and honest about things. If/when I mess something up I'm open about trying to resolve those things and apologize, too.


I listen carefully and practice reflective listening. I take her experiences, values and ideas seriously and don't hold her age against her.


Let him do what he wants about things


I don't feel I do this well. But I treat her as my equal.


I never point out his imperfections an I support him when he's sad so he always smiles around me :)


Asking when he wants to be left alone to decompress, bringing him coffee on days when he has to wake up early and understanding that we won't always agree on things.
