How to be a good girlfriend?

So you've landed the guy of your dreams. Finding a great boyfriend is hard. Now that you've found him, make sure that you are a great girlfriend so that you can make him happy and be can enjoy the relationship with you. Steps~~1) Be honest. While being honest to your mate is very important, to the point of being paramount, it is equally important that you be honest to yourself. And, yes, in a mature relationship, honesty is the best policy. 2) Have a positive attitude. If everything you say around him is a criticism Or an attack, he will not look forward to seeing you. However, you don't always have to agree with him just because he is your boyfriend. Tactfulness is a better strategy in mature relationships. No matter what, have a sense of humor. Have inside jokes together. Be spontaneous. Be happy. 3) Communicate regularly. Do not talk his ear off. However, make sure that if you have any problems that will affect your mood, he is made aware of the reasons for your problems and mood, so that you do not appear to merely be a fickle and cranky creature. 4) Make your desires, needs, and opinions known, even when they may conflict with his. Acting like you exist solely to please him will get you no respect and may even make him bored with your company. Showing that you are your own person with your own needs, desires, and approach to life will keep him interested in getting to know and understand you as a person. 5) Be consistent. What exasperates men most in a relationship is having to go back and forth between moods, and having to tolerate irrationality. 6) Be patient. Don't automatically think he didn't hear you when you said something, maybe he was preoccupied. Don't jump to conclusions. 7) Accept the differences. You have and learn to "Love" them. Don't try to change each other-love one another for who each of you are. 8) Take an interest in has interests. You don't have to act like you love football, but at least try to understand why he's such a fan. Take an interest in his disinterests, too. He might be disinterested in what you like, so at least try to understand why he is not interested and respect it. 9) Buy him simple, unexpected gifts. for no special reason once in a while. The thought is always appreciated and it makes the guy feel as if you really do care and 'love him'. Some good gift ideas could be a new music CD he's been dying to get, a book Or something else that he'll really like and will be surprised by. Guys like to be surprised with little gifts too. 10) Let him live his life. If you feel entitled to all of his time and attention, learn "how to not be an obsessive girlfriend". Remember that he doesn't need you for everthing and that you are separate people as well as a couple. When he needs some space, don't take it personally. ..........to be continued P.S~~to everybody Happy New Year!!!!!!!!
