Great Relationship Advice From America’s Love Doctor

1. Praise is a wonderful gift and is so easy to give. Look at the things that make your partner or new boyfriend unique and develop the habit of praising him for those very things. It will bring out the best of him and you.
2. If YOU want to feel special make your partner feel special. Always remember what you GIVE is what you GET.
3. Women love to feel connected with their partners and nothing accomplishes this better than romance. For some, its flowers, cards, or a small gift to feel special. Some look to a night out on the town, dinner or dancing. Women respond to romance - and most crave more of it.
4. As a couple, work at giving each other time to relax, talk and listen to each other. This will make both of you feel wanted and special.
5. Remember: Love sees conflict as a doorway to greater intimacy and knowledge. It is through your disagreements that new insights can be gained as a couple. Ask yourselves how can this draw us closer as a couple?
6. Keep in mind: Love is not so goal oriented that it loses sight of the relationship and the emotional connection.
