Ways to show RESPECT to your mate

• Tell him “thank you” for going to work, protecting & providing for you (and the family)
• Don’t complain about the finances, his job or having to work
• Cheer his successes whether in business, dreams, a sport or hobby
• Praise his good decisions and support him in the poor ones
• Don’t continually "have a better idea"
• Talk to him in a LOVING tone
• Laugh at his jokes
• Compliment & honor him in front of others
• Disagree with him in private
• Let him do tasks his own way
• Ask him for his opinion & try to fulfill his suggestion
• Tell him you like him
• In problems, do 3 things: Be friendly. Be friendly. Be friendly.
• Let him fix things & applaud his solutions
• Thank him for his advice & knowledge
• Do things with him or watch him do them (I don't like to fish. I do go from time to time without complaining or nagging and hang out with David when he fishes -- he likes that!)
• Initiate sex with him
• Respond to his playfulness more often
• Support his decisions
• Don’t say the words, "I told you so"
• Encourage him to talk about his dreams (LISTEN without being critical of them!)
