    Home Improvement! (in your relationship)

    Today in one of my classes, we were assigned to essentially create a bucket list. Just some goals and dreams we want to accomplish before we die. One of mine was "do something that scares me".
    When I got home I started thinking about some things I would like to do or change to improve myself and my relationship with my SO. No person or relationship is perfect.
    The biggest thing? I want to work on "crossing that bridge when we get there". I get anxious about things so far in my future they may not happen. Its a lots of unnecessary stress for me and my SO. I need to work on living in the now.

    So what is something/are some things that you want to try to improve in yourself/your relationship?

    I make slick sarcastic comments a lot, that often come off as hurtful even if they aren't meant to be. So that is something that I would want to change, not just in my relationship, but in general.

      NAGGING!!!! I am horrible at it. OMG. I will nag Chris to death to get things done. He hated it in the beginning and now appreciates it since he gets stuff done, but now that i know i do it, i annoy myself!!! That is a relationship thing that I personally need to work on.

          I want to not be such a procrastinator. My SO is a procrastinator too so with the both of us, nothing ever gets done xD we try to encourage each other but then I feel hypocritical.

            I need to work on my temper. I know that it's not helping anything in our relationship.

              I personally need to work on my procrastination.

              In our relationship I need to work on being more patient. Its hard cause I miss him so much. I'm very patient with him, but when I wait to hear from him I just get myself so worked up when I should wait calmly because stressing out doesnt help anything.

                I need to work on not over-thinking everything. Often times if I don't hear from him all day, or he takes FOREVER to respond to my texts, I can be kind of bitchy and get really irritated. I have to remind myself that he loves me and I love him and I shouldn't let a phone get me so worked up all the time.

                  I need to work on not snapping at my SO. If I'm frustrated with something I'm doing and he asks a question, I sometimes snap at him, even though I don't mean to,

                          I need to learn to stop procrastinating and learn to live in the now or at least just plan ahead for one year, but no more five-year-plan! I'd just set myself up for a lot of disappointment and get really anxious on top of it, too!

                            I do this too. I find myself so amusing. Others... not so much.
