11 Simple Gestures Your Long Time Girlfriend Hopes She Doesn't Have To Ask You For
Roberto Nickson

1. Pick her up for a date.

Arriving to the restaurant with reservations is a huge bonus too. It shows that you've set that time out of your schedule for her. Even though you may live with her,

2. Open the door for her.

Show her that you haven't gotten used to her being around all of the time. You'll still go out of your way to respect her for the lady she is.

3. Surprise her with flowers from the store or hand pick them.

"You shouldn't waist your money on flowers." You may have heard this. It might honestly be true for some women, but for most.. it's a trap and she feels self-conceded telling you go buy her flowers.

4. Surprise her with something you heard her mention in passing.

Honestly... just surprise her with anything of her favorite. It'll make her happy and lets her know you pay attention.

5. Hold her hand.

Don't ask why, we just feel safe, loved, and comforted by the small touch of your hand. Personally, I feel pretty lucky to be with my guy, so holding his hand is just one way I like to show him off. ;)

6. Let her wear your jacket.

Coming from experience, we're sorry if you warned us that it's chilly outside and we don't listen. Please please please let us wear it anyway.. your patience doesn't go unrecognized.

7. Cook for her.

And if you can't cook, cook with her.

8. Compliment her sincerely.

When you pick her up for that date, "You look stunning," goes a long way.

9. Bring her coffee.

OR bring her a favorite lunch or even a sonic drink. It'll make her day and she'll hear how lucky she is the rest of her day from her co-workers.

10. Ask her about her day.

This is simple right? It should be. I've heard a lot of women just start talking about their day to their husband. The husband's response is usually, "uh-huh." What?? You LIVE together. Ask about each others day, because I promise she'll talk about it anyway.

11. Have some nice pictures taken.

Yes, she'll pick out the outfits and do all the scheduling so no worries there. Asking her what she thinks of getting spring pictures done may surprise her though (in a good way).

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
