HogWild's Tips for a Great Relationship:
-
Never hold a grudge. Hold a hammer. It's a lot more intimidating.
-
Choose your partner wisely. I mean, you probably have so many
options, right? That's why you keep calling your ex-girlfriend, right?
To tell her all about your countless other options.
-
Don't confuse sex with love. Sex is best to
be confused with trust.

-
Communicate your needs. Your partner can not read your mind! Your
partner is barely listening to you when you SPEAK... and you expect him
or her to listen to what you DON'T speak?
-
Seriously, you must communicate your needs. Except if your needs
include another man's pen!s in your butt.

-
View yourselves as a team. Preferably a SWAT Team where you blow
up stuff and shoot bad guys. Because that's pretty cool.
-
Okay, really, think of yourselves as a team. And just like any team,
there is a Most Valuable Player. That's you, girl. How long can
you go on picking up the slack for his slumping bench-warming ass?
-
Don't be selfish, because there's no "I" in team. And after
Stacy left me, there's no I in Stacy.

-
The value of a team is your differences: She's monogamous;
you're cheating on her. You know it; she doesn't. Value
those differences!
-
NEVER go to sleep angry. ALWAYS have sex angry. It's
better that way. Trust me.

-
Talk with your partner about your concerns and fears, as well as
your hopes and dreams. This will make it easier for your partner
to use them against you when you break-up.
-
Learn to negotiate. This will come in handy during your divorce.
-
Learn to compromise. After all, compromising is what made you
settle for this person in the first place.
-
Listen. Truly listen to your partner's concerns and complaints
without judgment. Just like Jesus would do. And Jesus deserves a
back rub, don't you think?

-
Look at things from your partner's perspective as well as your
own. That's why I want to put a mirror above the bed. It's not
about sex… it's about INTIMACY!!!
-
Take a long-range view. Bail.
-
Apologize. Even if you didn't do anything wrong... yet.
-
Recognize that all relationships have their ups and downs. It's like
riding a rollercoaster. At first you feel excited. Then nauseous.
Then it's suddenly over. You walk around feeling stunned. You
look at a picture of the ride. Then you find yourself waiting and
waiting until you can get back on.
-
Maintain self-respect and self-esteem. Yours, not
your partner's. Build them up too much and they'll leave you for someone
better.
-
Enrich your relationship by bringing in new interests from
outside the relationship. Like that hot 21 year old intern from
the office.
-
It's unrealistic to expect one person to meet all of your needs
in life. This is why you must sleep around.
-
Understand that love is not absolute. Nothing is forever.
Except Herpes. At least you'll always have that.

-
Evaluate your potential partners as you would a friend. Look at
their character, values, and their spirit. Then disregard all of
it... just like with your worthless friends.
-
Okay really, don't confuse sex with love. And don't confuse
your regular coffee for Folgers instant crystals. And please don't
confuse the clitoris with a lima bean.
-
Know your needs and speak up for them clearly. That d!ldo
isn't going to magically plug your mouth without crystal clear
communication. (Beforehand.)
-
Sex is easy but intimacy
requires honesty, openness and self-disclosure. Talk about your
concerns, fears, sadness, as well as hopes and dreams. That
should kill the mood.
-
Have empathy. Listening to your partner opens the door to
confiding... a door that opens the gates to V@gina Town.

-
A marriage is an agreement to
spend your future together. Compare your dreams to make sure
you're both on the same path. Update your dreams regularly as
she shoots them down.
-
It's easier for someone to love you
when you love yourself. Love yourself as often as possible depending
upon your Internet connection.
-
When you meet someone special,
don't be afraid to let her into your heart. In the end, you
won't be sorry. Unless she's a stingray.
