If you feel as if something is not right with your relationship, then sit down and talk with your partner. Explain to them what you are feeling. Tell them what changes you would like to make. Don’t be rude. Don’t pick on them and don’t be over powerful. Remember, you don’t control the other.

To this day, I still like writing notes and leaving them where my husband can find them. Some may call it childish, but I call it sweet. I also write e-mails to him and talk to him on messenger, even though he is sitting right beside me on his computer. Strange? I call it romantic and there’s nothing wrong with it. Write a note to your partner explaining what you think is wrong. Writing a note will give you a chance to see yourself and to see if you are going too overboard with words.
