How to Sense Commitment in a Relationship - Is it Time to Get Married? How to Sense Commitment in a Relationship - Is it Time to Get Married?

Commitment in a relationship is a big step forward and it is an indication that the relationship is getting serious. A long term relationship, if found successful normally results in commitment from both the partners. But this is not always the case. Some hesitate to get committed. One of the main reasons is a significant degree of question about trust in a relationship. If a relationship is built on trust and love, the partners find it easy to get committed.

Another reason for hesitation might be the fear of marriage. Once you say that you are serious about a relationship and get committed, you may be forced by your partner or your partner might expect you to arrange for a marriage. The word commitment does not only translate to marriage.

Commitment need not also be a stable one. Nobody can assure that a commitment is forever; committed people change their minds and choose to end a relationship and start a new one. There are numerous examples for this case, worldwide.

Are there any indications that you are moving in the serious/committed direction? Yes there are!

1. Your focus is now more turned towards settling down, and you get bored being single.

2. All your future plans, purchases etc. anchor upon "we or us" rather than "I".

3. Family parties and getting along with family occasions mean a lot to you recently.

4. You make plans for the future ahead, especially financial plans. You start to invest, save, and so on.

5. You no more have useless arguments and discussions with your partner; rather your discussions are more fruitful with goals and you guys are future driven.

6. Your care for your partner is at a significantly elevated rate.

7. You dream about spending fun and quality time with your partner.

8. You don't stop with that; you indeed spend quality time with your partner by cutting down some time with your friends/colleagues.

9. Given all these, you guys still give each other their space.

10. You focus on the happiness of your partner. You are now a giver of a smooth relationship rather than expecting!

Given all these symptoms, there is no guarantee that you guys will marry tomorrow. But the thought is in your minds already, for sure. You can now discuss with your partner about this and get things done. But, remember at the same time, there is no need to rush.

How to Keep a Woman in Love With You? Do This & You Will Never See Her Fall Out of Love With You

Finally you have a girlfriend and things seem to be all hunky-dory at least for now. Well, if you do not work on your relationship continuously things could take a turn for the worse. A woman will not always remain in love with you. There are lots of things that we do in life that kills the romance and with it the relationship.
Here are seven tips that will keep the fires burning all the time.
Flowers
Flowers never went out of fashion and never will. What better way to say to a girl that you love her than by sending her a bunch of tulips. You can send her flowers any day and you don't need an excuse. If your girl is writing an exam then send her flowers that morning, if she is visiting her friends out of town send her flowers there to tell her that she is on your mind. Sending her flowers tells her that she is being missed.
Look for an excuse to celebrate
Celebrate every small and big event in her life. If she has graduated then obviously it calls for a special celebration however, small events like she getting a new pet or a new car should be celebrated with gusto.
Praise
Never tire of telling her that she looks stunning and gorgeous. No woman will tire of compliments from her man no matter how old the relationship is. However, say it in a style that genuinely reflects your feelings.
Never forget special occasions
Your first date, first kiss, your first meeting, Valentines Day, woman's day, birthdays, anniversaries etc all should be remembered and celebrated. These special occasions give you the chance to reinforce your commitment to her.
Lovemaking
You have to ensure that your lovemaking never loses the spark. Make love to her as if it is the first time. Try and fulfill her fantasies and make sure that there is never a dull moment in your love life. Make passionate love at times and when she is not up to it be gentle and sweet. However, keep her sexually satisfied.
Support
Support her in all her endeavors and encourage her in all that she does whether it is academics or profession. Be the rock in her life and stand by her decisions good or bad.
Life outside the relationship
Just as you need your space so does she. Encourage her to spend time with other girls to do girly things. Give her all the freedom and never doubt her intentions or integrity. This you way tell her that you have full faith in her and trust her judgments.

Never Apologize, It's a Sign of Weakness

Why? The answer is ego,pride and selfishness. Two things that should never exist when love is true and real. Lets face it, we all make mistakes - no one is perfect. Admitting this is a real challenge for most. But let us think about it, why hold back on an apology to the one you love, when we do not even think twice when the boss or a colleague or friend demands or deserve an apology?. It is all about priorities!!!. If we get our priorities right, the world would be a better place and there would be many happy couples, really in love.
I want to tell you about what happened last week when I returned home after being gone for 3 days. While gone I was taking care of my 86 year old mother and a very close friend who is also 86. I do this every 3 weeks. I love my mother and my friend, who is like a mother to me as well, but when I am there I run nonstop to get everything done in the time allowed. When I returned home after a drive of 1 1/2 hours, I had to unload my car which was full of groceries and other things and put them away. It was after 7 by the time this was finished and my husband wanted dinner. I was at the end of my rope by this time, stressed and tired from the three days. I flew off the handle at him and said "You were home all day, you know I am tired when I come home, you know how to cook, you could of thought of me and put something together for dinner". With that he got up and fixed us a simple but filling meal. I felt so bad that I took out my frustrations on him and later apologized for my behavior. But I am sure when I go again in three weeks that he will have planned dinner for us when I return because he knows I will be dealing with the same pressures. One thing we have done for over 25 years together is to never go to bed mad at each other. There are real rewards for not going to bed angry with your partner.
If you are not sure what to do next, there are 4 ways to say you are sorry. A simple apology for an unintended act, a long serious talk, the giving of a gift, and making a date.
Small Issues Apology
This one is the Simple Apology. Do not let your ego get in the way for a small issue when you need to say I'm sorry, do it. If you forgot to call or meet when you were suppose to, just apologize and mean it. Would you not want to be treated the same?
Long Serious Talk
If you really screwed up you may need to have a long serious talk with your lover. Talk to them about how you made them feel and that you know they are upset, be honest about what you did and steps you plan to take to ensure it will not happen again. Long serious talks are the most heartfelt way to apologize to your partner.
Gift Giving
This can be tricky. If you are backing up your apology with a gift it may seem like a secondary way to apologize for what you did. A gift may not solve your problem, but it can help to make your lover feel better. If you make this extra effort to make them happy, your apology and the gift can be just the right thing to do.
Make a Date
Take your sweetheart out on a date. This will ease the situation that you want to apologize for by enjoying a night out together. The apology is the most important thing, but remembering why you are together should make your apology accepted more easily. Before you actually make the apology, you need to think about what you are apologizing for. If it was a small issue then use the simple apology but if the issue was bigger than that it may require a more intense apology.
If you are struggling, take the time to understand the reason for the apology and the method that is appropriate. If you want to mend your relationship and are truly sorry, say you are sorry in a sincere way. Admitting our mistakes does not mean that we will no longer commit the same mistakes. But saying sorry for the same mistakes does something to our inner consciousness -- it makes us more aware of those mistakes and strengthens our resolve to avoid them until we eventually no longer commit them.
It takes strength and love to apologize. Never admitting mistakes means they will be repeated
