There are easy ways to make sure your partner stays happy, and they are COMPLETELY free. Contrary to what people may believe, you don't have to spend a dime on your boyfriend/girlfriend in order to have a relationship. Materialistic things can only get you so far in having a genuine, healthy, and REAL relationship.

1. Loyalty/Trust

Giphy

Okay, this is a BIGGIE for me. I don't know about y'all, but in a relationship, something that is SO important to me is knowing that my partner has my back and that I can trust them. The first way to ensure that your relationship is built on loyalty and trust is simply having a solid friendship. After all, you wouldn't hurt your best friend, would you?

Nope.

2. Communication

Giphy

It is common that relationships fail from lack of communication, and it is sad because this should be easily avoidable if you and your partner just TALK, right?

It is important to communicate with your partner what they/you want, need, dislike, etc. in a relationship. It is important to know what/how your partner needs to be loved. Unfortunately, if both parties in the relationship don't know how to communicate with each other effectively, then the relationship can potentially crash & burn at any point.

3. Your Time

Giphy

Okay, this is something that should be a no-brainer. Everyone wants to feel like a priority, and the easiest way to make sure your partner feels important is by giving your partner your time. It's become common for in, society for everyone to sit with our faces buried in our phones instead of engaging in actual conversation.

So, put your phone down and, get to know each other.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…
