I would like to be more financially free and he can assist me in my expenses and guiding me to spend less.
I would try to not desire intimacy so much in our relationship. There are times when I feel like my desire to be with her - especially after long weeks where we have little time for one another - is far greater than hers. This leads to my own perception of rejection and my negative reactions to these perceived turn-downs. I don't know how she can help, share in my desire, stop being so wonderful, beautiful, desirable?
I wish I had more self control. She's pretty good about offering encouraging reminders and not trying to be a parent.
I would like to improve my horrible attitude. I feel like I am a prude sometimes. I want to learn to shut my trap and listen for once. He can help me by telling me to shut up and stop letting me get away with being a bitch. If he told me that I was being a bitch and to tone it down, I would listen.
The major aspect that I would like to change about myself would be that I would stop being the perfectionist and hear what my wife has to say not how she it come out. I think a way that she could help is to stop and think of what she is trying to rally across to me.
I have had a rough few months and I let myself get out of shape. I also has been effecting my mood. I am sad and I am trying to get over my feelings but I am finding it very difficult. I feel uncomfortable with myself and I really want to work hard and turn everything around. I hope my boyfriend can come join me at my side as much as he can.
I would like to be less reactive. I often find myself resentful of myself minutes/hours/days after a conversation or argument. I am working on being more aware and responsible for my own actions, but understand that hormones muddy the water and influence me to forget what I already know about myself and what I'm working on. I'd like help in the form of my partner understanding that I won't always be perfect, that I'll need her there to calm me down and respond maturely.
my weight. he could just encourage me and push me to do more and to do bettre and to keep it up no matter what!
My weight. He could work out with me and be a source of encouragement
I have entered a phase where I'm just fed up to try to make things right when they don't go well; I know this is a step in the wrong direction, but I have a hard time to get out of it by myself.
My temper :/
I would like to stop losing my temper at people who text and drive. He could help by having my jeep outfitted with a bazooka :))
That is all you need, to be armed while behind the wheel....Lol

some of my habits...better communication skills. I guess it's hard for me to fully express myself through words. Either I have social anxiety or i get shy, or i dont see the point in large crowds, or when i dont talk all day to my partner, i find my self not know what to talk about because ive held it all in for so long. My partner can help by being present and patient.
my personality. its so bi polar. be nice and thoughtful to what he says and does... after all i am trying my best.
I would like to be more self-confident and less stubborn ;) He's helping already but it's really hard to change me ;)
