Count your blessings.

A good habit to get into is make a list everyday of ten things you are thankful for. It doesn't have to be a major list everyday and the items can be simple and easy. Take for example, "I am thankful for the warm water in my shower" or "I am thankful that my beautiful son comes to see me when he wakes up in the mornings" These are simple little statements but they make a lasting impression on the way you feel. Start doing this everyday even if it is in your mind and soon you might just find your days are better than you think. Even the bad ones will seem better when you realize that you have something to be thankful for.

The time is right.

The time is always right for a wonderful time together. Take what you have and make the best of it. So what if you don't have a lot of money. Take a wonderful walk together, or rent a movie and make popcorn at home to get your dating in. Build a relationship first and then when the money starts coming in you can make up for those dates where you had to just walk together. Just don't dwell on the fact that you finances are not the best. Work around your monetary situation and move on with the love.

Sometimes a little self starting helps the cause.

Sometimes you might not be quite in the mood to make a little love with you partner. You can see it in their eyes and you want to, yet your not quite in the mood. When this happens take a minute and give yourself some time. Head into the bathroom or a private area where you can start to stimulate yourself. Ladies loosen up that clitoris and men stroke yourself until you are starting to get hard. Your partner doesn't have to know you have done this but they will be the one reaping the rewards of it. Sometimes you just have to prime the engine a little bit and get yourself to that place so that you are ready.

feel the love!

Next time you really feel loved make a point to write down those feelings. No we don't expect you to be the best poet of all time. However we will make you go back and read these feelings when you do feel so loved and see the difference. This gambit can be run many times in the course of a relationship. However seeing how you feel during the good times will help you get through those harder times.

The I got to leave before you get up kiss.

Nothing is worse than having to leave for work before you partner gets up. You don't want to wake them up and disturb their sleep but you still want that exchange of care before you walk out the door. Talk about this with your partner and ask what they would like. Changes are they want that exchange also without disturbing their slumber. Maybe a quick peck on the forehead when you start to get out of bed or a gentle caress of their back will do the trick. The important part is to let them know you want to carry them with you as you go about your day. Figure out what works best for both of you and then start a routine. Soon you will find you are both happy and no one loses sleep over it.
