5 Secret Rules For A Fairy Tale Relationship (Shhh..! Keep It To Yourself)

Ever since I was a little girl, I hoped someday a Prince Charming will come into my life and we will live happily ever after. And he did ! but the fairy tale has not quite started right away(hard times huh love)..
What I did not know was that between the first kiss and the "happily ever after" there are certain things a woman should learn in order to get the fairy tale rolling
It can take months or even years to discover them, so I thought I would just share this happy relationship secret with you, so that you guys do not waste too much of your time and tears on something that would have never worked.

Anyways, back to the secret, here it is (hope it helps) - the (drum roll please)

5 Secret Rules (in my opinion) A Woman Should Religiously Follow In Order To Make Your Fairy Tale Come True

Secret Rule #1 :

Shower Him With GENUINE Compliments

They say women like compliments. What they do not say aloud is that men LOVE them. And there is nothing to be ashamed of! When it comes to compliments, we all go weak in the knees…
Where do you start? Well, I am sure your man is great, so there should be thousands of things you can compliment on. Just go with the flow and compliment on whatever he does!
Something simple like “You always make the best toast, hunn” or “What a great idea to eat here!” will be enough to light up your man’s face. And the best part, is that we actually think that, so basically you just need to say it aloud.
Not only the compliments will make your man happy, but they will also serve as a nice way to change your man’s behavior.

For example, my boyfriend is a heavy smoker, instead of nagging him about this habbit, I would just say: “You haven’t smoked for 4 hours, love, wow, I did not know you had such a great will-power!”. And guess what? He would always last for another couple of hours without a cigarette to impress me, and i hope one day he would finally kick that habit !

Secret Rule #2 :

Always, and I Mean- ALWAYS support your man

No matter how crazy his ideas are, support your man. Wether it’s something small and insignificant (like a destination for a picnic) or something big (like his desire to change his ambition), you should always be there for him.
The thing is that there are NO right or wrong choices, they are just choices, you will never know what’s best in a long run anyway. No matter what he decides to do, just believe that he can do it. It’s your support that makes it all possible ! You know that every great man in history had a great woman by his side who truly believed in him. So, be one too !

Secret Rule #3 :

Take Real Good Care Of Him

With all love and respect to men (and I DO mean it), they are not “designed” to take care of themselves (I love you despite this fact Baby). They forget to eat regularly, they forget to shower and change/wash/put away their clothes, they are so involved in doing more significant things that these little details just skip their attention.
Men might not say it, but they absolutely need our help organizing the household. Either by yourself or with hired help - it will be truly appreciated either way.

Secret Rule #4 :

Learn To Cook Something

I know, I know, there is plenty of restaurants and professional chefs(Ah Fong rite Love) who can cook anything you and your man like. But that’s not the point. Here is what is:

All men without exception like to eat well. I know my baby does, and I am sure your Prince Charming does too. And what makes your home the best place to go back to from work is… a nice home prepared meal!
It can be something simple or you can cook only some part of it and get the rest from a restaurant (like I do :)), but the whole “at home dinner” experience is something you two should definitely try! Your house will feel like “home” once you guys do it.

Secret #5:

Always Stay Pretty and Polished

Remember when you first started going out and you were trying to look your best every time he saw you ? Just carry on doing it !
In general men feel happy just looking at a pretty woman, it’s how they are wired. So, just make sure you still are an eye-candy to your man. Try to look polished every time he comes through the door. Say “no” to old sweaty T-shirts, hair in a dull bun and a shiny face, opt for something more adventurous. And please do not underestimate sex and intimacy in long-term relationships - I've heard about many couples splitting over that. Just try to be as inspiring sex-wise as you used to be at the early stages of your relationship, or better yet, become even sexier! =p

Sheding All That Excess Weight

The reality is that there is no product in the world that can produce fat loss while we are eating and drinking excessively, and when moving only slowly from couch to car to office chair. We need a program of sensible diet and exercise that will support the products we utilize to help our weight loss.

Here’s a list of things to do :-

(1) Lots of vegetables and fruits
Increase healthy protein intake. This is how you build lean muscle tissue, which in turn speeds up your metabolism. Examples are fish, lean meats, low-fat dairy products, beans, and soy products.

(2) Fiber-Rich foods. They will fill up and they make they are satisfying. In this category are: peas, beans, bran cereals, potato skins, nuts and seeds, oatmeal, bulger wheat, 100% whole wheat baked goods, fruits and vegetables.

(3) Minerals. Calcium and other minerals are you “secret weapons” against body fat. They are found in low-fat dairy products, small or canned fish, soy tofu, green vegetables, nuts, seeds, bran cereals, and calcium fortified orange juice, and avoid processed, salt-loaded foods.

(4) Eat fish and beneficial fats. Omega-3 unsaturated fatty acid in some fish, oils and nuts is a good fat. Eat moderate amounts of salmon, herring, mackerel, sardines and other oily fish.

(5) Soybeans, nuts, pumpkin seed are also excellent sources for Omega-3.

(6) Reduce harmful fats – saturated and trans fats. These are not only high in calories; they are

also loaded with harmful fatty acids that cause disease.

(7) Always eat an adequate breakfast for several reasons: it will speed up your metabolism earlier in the day and when you skip breakfast, it makes it harder to control your appetite later in the day.

(8) Cut back or eliminate alcohol. It is high in non-filling calories. Ideal consumption is one glass of beer or wine a day.

(9) Stay away from junk carbohydrates – sugar and white flour are diet killers in all but the smallest amounts.

(10) Gradually reduce your calorie intake because extreme and sudden dieting causes your body to conserve, not burn calories, and it slows fat loss.

Remember!

Remember that being obsessed with counting the calories that you consume will only work if you know exactly how calories are being used up by your body. When you eat a big fat, juicy burger, for example, there is no need to burn off ALL those calories in one super-intense exercise session. Your body does need to retain some calories to serve as a fuel to the normal functionalities of the heart and the lungs.

Don’t Say It ! Top Ten Lines A Woman Would Never, i Repeat NEVER Want To Hear From Her Man

In the ever-complicated world of the man-woman relationship, there are a few ‘unwritten’ rules which need to be followed. Men should learn that when they say the absolute wrong thing, or they may just find themselves sleeping on the couch the whole night through.

Here’s a list of the top ten lines that a man should NEVER say to a woman:

10. “What did you do to your hair ?”
This is a statement which just goes to show how clueless some men are sometimes. Even if a new hairstyle or haircut does not particularly flatter us, we just want you to notice that we’ve gone to a lot of trouble for that new hairstyle. A stylist did it, it was expensive, and we felt great leaving the salon. Just tell us that you like our new haircut. End of story!

9. “They both look the same to me.”
Okay, it is a fact that women are more obsessive than men when it comes to picking outfits, or silverware, or moving a piece of furniture from one side of the living room to another. You probably couldn’t care less -but we want you to have at least an input about what you think so that you would’ve contributed something.
Ecru and beige may look the same -but they’re not. Tell us what you think, and pick one. Even if we end up not following your advice anyway.

8. “Do you really need another pair of shoes?”
The same thing applies to bags -or clothes. It may seem like an obsession, but women need to look good and keep up with the latest trends. So just go with the flow even if you don’t understand the logic behind it -and never tell us that we don’t need a new pair of shoes.

7. “Is it the time of the month?”
Emotional outbursts or not, it’s just plain rude for guys to immediately assume that just because a woman is acting a certain way -that it’s the time of the month. PMS leads us to ache in certain places that men may not know about, or have food cravings -but it’s not always the reason behind how we act.

6. “Do you really think you should be eating that?”
If you don’t want to get the “I can’t believe you just said that” stare, this is something that you should never say even when she’s gobbling up that pastry that she said she’ll never eat again.

5. “You’re acting just like __.”
Telling us that we’re acting just like our mom, your mom or worse -your ex-girlfriend is definitely a no-no. Do you want us to think that we remind you of your ex, which you shouldn’t even mention in the first place? And telling us that we’re acting like your mom or our mom? That’s just plain wrong..!

4. “You didn’t tell me that you have a cute/hot girlfriend.”
No matter how secure you think women are about themselves, it’s always shaken up by the time that you notice or mention in passing -even jokingly -how hot you think one of our friends are. We wouldn’t trust you to be around them, either.

3. “It’s really up to you.”
Even when it seems to be a pretty insignificant matter -we want you involved in the decision making process. Telling us that it’s up to us just sends a message that you don’t care.

2. “I love you.”
These three big words should not be uttered during a fight -even if you look at the magic words as a last resort to end the discussion immediately and jump to the make-up sex.

1. “Relax!”
Even when you can clearly see that we’re freaking out about something, telling us to relax means that you think we’re being crazy and unreasonable. Even if we are -the word “Relax” will just further stoke the fire of our anger - do you see where I’m going with this? =p

So, if you want to keep your head out of the water -learning these 10 lines that you should never say to your wife or girlfriend will help tilt the odds in your favor.
