How to make your other half feel valued/loved/appreciated/special?

Divorced 2 years ago and already getting married?

There is a reason why you have a failed one already.

I'm a firm believer of waiting 5+ years before weddings are talked about.
 
OP I'm on my second marriage and its a lot different from my first.

If you have not learned from the mistakes of the first one and know how to make you current partner happy and rely on GD for inspiration you should probably forget weddings for a while :D

Oh and keep her away from you ex :D
 
^^^^^Its probably seen more holes than a worm. :D

Its not even a personal vibrator, its an industrial grade unit you'd find in a perverted doctor's surgery for treating female hysteria. Its probably seen 20-30 holes, every day for half a century.
 
Just find someone who is low maintenance. All these women who need to be given special attention 24 hours a day is just a nod to forthcoming disaster once married.

They can never be satisfied. Nothing is ever enough and the more you give the more they want.

Lol this is really the key. Pick someone that prefers hamburgers over filletsteak. Life is so much easier minus all the bs.

Yep, being with an entitled princess type will drive you nuts. Much better to be with someone down to earth and easy going who isn't demanding and also has their own things to keep them busy rather than being dependent.

I think they call most of those type of people "men", though. :eek:

Like I'm using any of the original fittings, I built my own using new stuff :D

Had to get a voltage converter though as it's a US plug.
 
I usually follow these 3 rules -;

Let her outside twice a week, usually with loose leash so she can feel some freedom
Buy her something special for the kitchen, like a new soft rag
once every two months I get her a pair of new socks but that depends if she behaved her self or not


seems to be enough to keep her happy.

/notserious.
 
- Tell her you love her, everyday, several times a day
- Do random things, be silly, show her you're thinking of her
- Blow it all over her face, she'll love it
- If you see something in a shop, something small/random/thoughtful and it reminds you of her, buy it.
- Don't wait to be asked to do things, do it anyway. Every morning I've got a cycle of making sure I do one thing in the kitchen before I go to work. I don't try to do everything as I know it'll make me late and she'll want to redo certain bits anyway :p - like I take a bag of recycling out or clear out the cats tray etc.
 
Include her in your hobbies, make them accessible for her.

I bought a capture card so she can be part of the stream as thats my hobby at the moment... when I have free time :/

Alternatively, get involved in what ever shes interested in.
 
Without knowing her it's hard to suggest things that would work.

You've got the typical flowers, chocolates etc but tbh, it's lame and lazy. It's one of the things that takes the least amount of energy.

You've got you come in from work to a soak in the bath and tea being cooked for them, then sofa and film, more effort involved and usually more appreciated than the above. Alternatively, a meal out and dancing/film/a trip etc.

One of the best things you can do, give her a day off from the jobs around the house, and always make sure you're doing your fair share. The more effort you put in and the worse the job the more she'll appreciate is. It's about breaking the boring routine and it's the little things that count. Yes, the big grand gestures are important, but if you show that you're aware of the little things as well it'll make a massive difference.
 
To make my partner feel appreciated I do the following:

Tell her regularly
Spend time with her
Buy her little gifts randomly
Demonstrate that her happiness is important by not complaining when she wants to do something that I don't
Be there for her whenever she needs me

Yes, basically that. Show the wife that she's the only one I want.
