Lets say you meet your perfect match. What if anything have you learned from past relationships and what if anything would you change to help make this one last?

I have grown a lot and know myself so much better. I would say "No thank you" more often. I would not try to be "superwoman". I would continue to be myself and not be so serious! I would continue to laugh at myself every day and focus on the lighter side of life. I would push myself to ask for what I want/need. (That's my challenge but I'm working on it!)

I would keep him at arms length for awhile wait until I know him quite well before becoming intimate I would take time to make sure he is right for me before making any commitments or agreeing to any changes but as far as myself - eh....I have always needed a fair amount of rechrge time I'm pretty introverted....so9 maybe identifying that and acting on it so he doesn;t see me as moody

If it were a perfect match you wouldn't have to change anything to make it work. It would just work on it's own with no help at all. There's no such thing as perfection. Everyone has their flaws as well as their good qualities. It's being able to accept each other for the flaws as well as the good qualities, & perhaps changing some behavior or thinking that could become problematic, along with your attraction towards one another that all goes into a successful relationship. No one should have to change who they are happy being just to be with someone else. No one should have to "make" a relationship work. A relationship should be able to function on it's own, along with open communication. Remember this. As long as your hearts remain strong, you will remain together. The moment that you allow your light to fade, so will your attraction.

Yes a relationship does take work on both parties life isn't always a bed of roses. Things happen, it takes true commitment and hard work of both partners for a lifetime commitment

I will look in Jo's eyes more often and make sure she knows she is the only woman in the world for me.
