ERA.

One resolution I have made, and try always to keep, is this: To rise above the little things. - John Burroughs

In a relationship, you need somebody who’s going to call you out, not somebody who’s going to let everything slide. You need somebody who doesn’t want to live without you, but can. Not somebody that is dependent, but somebody who is stronger with you. A relationship is two people, not one.

THE PROPER WAY TO APOLOGIZE

1. Kiss like you mean it. 2. Remember their birthday, every year. 3. Make them feel special, even on a monday night with a forecast of rain. 4. Befriend their Mom, she will tell you stories that no one else can. 5. Order each other food at restaurants, just to try something new. 6. Shower together, you may learn to love your body, by seeing the desire and passion in your partners eyes. 7. Leave notes when you go out for the day, it will make you feel safe. 8. Watch the Breakfast Club, and pump up your fist in the end, even if it only happens once. 9. Care for each other when sick, soup is the easiest thing to make. 10. Make chocolate covered strawberries in summer simply because you can. 11. Go fishing with their Dad, and listen to what he has to say, even if he may have trouble saying it. 12. Give each other little presents, even if its just a rose on friday the 13th. 13. Get angry, but forgive. 14. Love, love with all you’ve got.
