Is Your Relationship A 10?


How would you rate your partner?  Would you rate him or her a 10?  Or do you feel like you don’t know your partner as well as you think you should?

Do you have the same disagreements over and over? Do you wish he or she would pay more attention to you? Do you keep yelling at your partner over the same things?  Or does he or she keep yelling at you?  Do you wish you knew just what was going on in your relationship?

Why not set aside a time to really talk with each other?  While you are talking, you can ask the questions below that are appropriate:

“On a scale of 1 to 10, where do you think our relationship rates?”

 If the answer is under 10, continue:

“What would it take to make it a 10?”

 It really isn’t wise to be satisfied with an 8 or under. If you settle for that, be prepared for some bumps along the way.

 Make it a point to set time out weekly to get to know each other better. Have fun with it.

 If you’re in a relationship, why not make the most of it? Life is meant to be learned about, lived, and loved.

Relationship Questions To Ask Your Lover

It’s important to know the perfect relationship questions to ask your lover.  Whether the questions are about sex, romance (and there is a difference, isn’t there?), home life, career plans, how they see the future (with or without you), or any other area of life you choose to ask questions about, you have to be strong and realize that you may or may not like the answers.

One way to prepare for this is to imagine the best answer, the mediocre answer, and the WRONG answer, and how you are going to respond to each.  Plus you need to know what you are going to do when you hear his/her answers or what you can accept if you want this person in your life

By the same token, he or she may turn the tables and ask you the same relationship questions.  Are you going to be ready to answer them honestly?  Remember, you must begin as you want to live your life with this person.  Honesty and integrity must be forthcoming from the beginning.  If you can’t offer that, you need to ask yourself why.  That may lead you in an entirely different direction.

For the most part, you need to be prepared.  Know yourself and how you respond to different things.  Write your relationship questions down, then sit somewhere quiet and relax.  Imagine you and this other person as you ask your questions.   Imagine him/her giving you the wrong answers and imagine your future with this person.  Is it worth staying in this relationship?

Now, imagine asking the relationship questions and mediocre answers given.  Imagine your future with this person.

Now, imagine asking the questions and best answers given.  Imagine your future with this person.  Is it as happy and fulfilled as you want it to be?

After doing this exercise, look at your questions again.  Is there something that you missed that you want to add?  Can you imagine other relationship questions that will get you what you want even more?

If your partner is shy and too many questions make him/her uncomfortable, break them up into two or three different times.  Just make sure you get the important ones asked AND answered.

Now, before you go any further into the relationship, is the time to get answers.  Remember, relationship questions are important.  These aren’t “Do you put your socks on before your shoes?”, “Do you open the door before you leave?”, or “Do you stand up in the shower?” type questions, so check them out (in the right side bar).
