Traveling

Traveling, it seems like it shouldn’t be a big deal or an issue; in my experience, traveling has become a kind of magnifier of a relationship.  If you and you partner are placed in a different environment, are experiencing new things with each other, are spending time together, and are managing to do all this without killing each other I think it’s a good starting point and foundation for a great relationship.

On the other hand, while my significant other and I agree on the fact that life is too short to argue over or let little things bother us-it seems like some people just can’t let those things go.  While each individual has to make their own decisions, sometimes it’s the little things that become clear, the little things that can potentially turn into bigger things that we begin to see and understand when we aren’t clouded with our day-to-day lives.

I’ve watched the Amazing Race for several years, and in the back of my mind have always thought that it should be a requirement to further a relationship-especially a relationship that you want to grow into something more-in terms of dating, getting married, etc., the race, while kind of quirky at times with some of the tasks, allows the contestants/partners to build on their relationship.  It brings up all the important parts of that relationship, and tests that, and while pointing out faults that a relationship may have, it allows the partners to grow stronger and build more trust because they aren’t in their typical setting.

Would you trust yourself enough to travel far and wide to test the strength and potential of your relationship? 

From the Other Side of the Fence-Some Deadly Words

Again, no offense is intended-but as a female I feel most of these are dead on...Take a look and see what you think!

FIVE DEADLY TERMS USED BY A WOMAN:

(1) FINE - This is the word women use to end an argument when she knows she is RIGHT & YOU need to SHUT UP.
(2) NOTHING - Means SOMETHING & you need to be WORRIED.
(3) GO AHEAD - This is a dare, not permission, do NOT do it.
(4) WHATEVER - Is a woman's way of saying SCREW YOU.
(5) THAT'S OK - she is thinking long & hard on HOW & WHEN you will pay for your mistake. 

The Man Rules

I thought these man rules were hilarious, so I thought I would share. Some of them are very true and I think the girls will agree too. Please comment and don't be offended!

How long is too long for being away?

So Regan and I were apart for almost 5 weeks while I travelled with work. I must admit it was some of the hardest days I've had in a long time. However, we kept in touch using Skye, but we missed each other pretty badly. If fact, at the back end of the 5 weeks, it almost became intolerable, as we began getting snippy with each other, mainly because we just wanted to see each other. So the question is low long is too long? Blog us your answers.
