Video Transcript

"Today we're going to be talking about how to attain that next level of perfection within your relationship, specifically how to be the perfect boyfriend. Hi. I'm Joe Cuenco and I'm with Family Resources. Well just how do you become that perfect boyfriend? Well, first thing that women really understand that they want is communication. They want somebody that they can talk to, but they want somebody to listen as well. Communication is full duplex, it's back and forth. They want you to understand that you understand what they've talked about. Also, there is other attributes that are very important to them. Are you considerate? Are you kind to them? Are you demonstrating that you're thinking about them all the time? There is also the soft side, flattery, just pay attention to her and make sure that she feels that she's the most important woman on the planet. There is also the physical side. Are you affectionate? Do you hold her hand? I know this seems kind of antiquated but hey, opening up a door for her every once in a while is a nice gesture. Also, make sure that you kiss her and also take care of her physical needs. Give more of yourself. Successful couples have learned that a relationship is not a fifty-fifty proposition. If you give more of yourself than you expect you're going to get that ultimately in a relationship back from your girlfriend. There is also special things that you can do. Buy her flowers, send her a text saying I'm really thinking about you, I really miss you and give her a back rub from time to time. Just show her that she's really special. There is also the key dimensions that successful married couples have determined, love, trust, respect, friendship, communication as I talked about are very, very important. They're an important key and if you want to learn more there's relationship workshops that you can attend, marriage education classes. I know that's the M word, but marriage fundamentals are almost the same as single relationship fundamentals. It all involves work, but it's worth it at the end of the day, and that's how to become the perfect boyfriend. I'm Joe Cuenco with Family Resources, Relationships for Life."
