How do I get my significant other to respond.

Taking For Granted

Do you want a long-lasting, satisfying marriage? Then, do not take your loved one for granted. Remember to praise him/her for every day acts. Even if your loved one is, well...er, somewhat lazy... find something good s/he does and build on it. If he lifted his feet for you while you vacuumed under him, give him a great big kiss on the forehead and say "Thanks!" Praise will always change behavior faster and better than nagging.
