Well, I'm happy. It's officially been a year since Handsome has been in my life! Thinking about the past year, and the many years to come, I got the idea for this post. There are so many things that I love about my relationship and I never want those things to change. Sometimes as relationships grow, people stop doing the small things for each other, but think the best relationships are the one's that never stop doing those small things.
Here are six things that you should never stop saying to the man in your life.
I love you. This one seems like a no brainer to me. Never stop showing him how much you love him and never stop telling him. Tell him every chance you get!
I'm proud of you. No matter what it's for, never stop telling him you're proud. Whether he's doing well at work or accomplished a goal, or even if you're just proud of the man that he is- tell him. He'll love to be reminded that you notice and admire all of his hard work.
Thank you. Always thank him. If he does something for you, no matter how small, thank him. Thank him for supporting you, for loving you, for being there for you. Never let him forget how much you appreciate him.
You're right. Sometimes we can be stubborn. We don't like to be wrong, and we want to prove a point. But sometimes we just have to let him win one. Little arguments over stupid things can be so easily avoided, so if telling him he's right once and a while will prevent an argument, why not?
I'm sorry. When you're wrong- admit it. I don't think that you should over apologize, but if you know that you've done something wrong, just apologize.
I forgive you. On the other hand, when he's made a mistake, or when he's acted like a jerk, just forgive him and move on.

Congrats on one year! You two are so cute! Love this post. Very true.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Brianna!
ReplyDeleteI'm loving this list. Thankfully, I've never stopped saying any of these.
Congrats on celebrating one year!
ReplyDeleteI love that you listed 'I'm proud of you", I think it's a big one that gets over looked so often.
I love this post! All of these are so very true! And always need to be remembered no matter what year a couple is coming up on. Happy Anniversary :)
ReplyDeletecongrats and happy anniversary. Love these. :D

Love the new design, lady! I think this is my fave of yours so far! :D All very good advice. Sometimes people can get used to being in their relationships and start to take it for granted. There are so many simple ways, like these, to make sure people don't! :)
ReplyDeleteHappy one year!! I couldn't agree more with all of those things.
ReplyDeleteSoo true! A lot of women take advantage of the last three because we just assume they know or we show them enough but sometimes we have to say it for them to know its really how we feel.

So true, and congrats!
ReplyDeleteGreat list! Congrats on hitting the one year mark!
ReplyDeleteThese are obvious ones, but we often forget them and take them for granted. These are all so true. Congrats, and I am a new follower. We are also a long distance couple, and have been looking for other blogs that we could relate to through this journey.

Lovely post and congratulations on your milestone! :-)
ReplyDelete"You're right" is by far the hardest, but it's sure needed at times!
ReplyDeleteApologizing and admitting your partner is right is SO important. It's these little concessions that make true relationships work because, in the end, it's truly a partnership.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on a year of bliss, Brianna - here's to many, many more! xo
Happy one year! This list is so great and definitely important to keep in mind!
ReplyDeleteHappy one year! I love your list. I do most of these but the "you're right" is the hardest for me to do.
