Ms._Orbuch_Article_to_a_Better_Relationship

I can relate to what this article talks about because its very simple and straight to the point. Ms. Orbuch is basically saying to better your communication in a relationship that you want to last, just spend at least 10 minutes a day in quality conversation with your spouse. That being said, in a relationship, especially a romantic one, I believe that their should be spontaneity and in order to do so correctly you should have these type of conversations to get to know your spouse in depth. You can't surprise your spouse and keep things fresh and stimulating if you don't know where to start. I have only had a few relationships in my life and in every relationship have always kept my significant other on their toes. Being able to show your lover that you listen and care to make their day with the simplest of things because you paid attention to your previous conversations and bookmarked them in order to revert back and to. Simple things like, when I eat dinner I like using a small fork or I have an addiction to spicy food. Also gifts can be anything from thoughtful to materialistic but with meaning. Now in all honesty, I have always been bi-sexual so I have dealt with men and women in with relationships. Women are generally more emotional and complicated, as to men they can be quite simple and not in a bad way but again I am just being honest. Of course, intimacy in a relationship can play a huge role. Woman are naturally more sensitive and have a better understanding of what intimacy is, as for men, that just means sex is possibly more than physical. Now either way once two people enter that part in their relationship things are bound to change. The intensity of the relationship has multiplied because now that you have experienced being with that person physically nude and intertwined, you realized that you want to get to know them more and would like to see them mentally nude, so to speak. Of course I am speaking from my person experiences and my understanding of what this article is about. I think if I am to spend the rest of my life with someone that they better be extremely creative, energetic and have an open minded. I personally think 10 minutes is not enough to ask for, at all! I need everyday, all day and get spontaneous on the weekends!
