You may or may not agree with all of them, but hey; freedom of speech, right? I am not going to go into further details but will give my insight to all of them listed and ill be brutal about them so don’t hold it against me. 1.      Gratitude . Focus on what you have and not on what you don’t. Be grateful for your partner and be mindful of how lucky you are by having someone by your side, take me for example; I’m still single, no one loves me. 2.        Communication . Talk, talk and talk again. If there is something bothering you don’t give your partner the silent treatment as far as I know we are not mind readers?

Before I start, let’s ask ourselves what are friends with benefits?  Simply (but complicated enough sometimes) they are friends or acquaintances that you just happen to want to sleep with, no strings attached. What does no “strings attached “mean? Well I don’t want to be in a relationship, or meet your pals and family, etc. I just want to have a good time with you and only you at a certain time and then get on with my life.   Let’s be honest, this is not how it usually goes. There’s always some type of inflicted drama going on and therefore people just lose hope about having FWB.

Follow these tips and you will be sailing away in the right direction.  I have put it out there for you brutally but with all honesty, it is what it is and that's how we speak when we speak about it, so let's get started.  BEING TOO NEEDY Do your own thing, meet up with your friends, enjoy life and stop *insert here* him. He is doing him, working, occupying himself with his hobbies, passions and other life responsibilities.

Of course you can *insert here* but just keep in mind that just because he doesn’t reply to you fast doesn’t mean he is patching you, give him a break. And you, have a kit kat. *Calling *Texting *Instagramming *Snapchatting *Messaging *...

Quick guide on what to look out for if you think you are being played.  But before I begin I have to say that you will never know! The one you are with can love you and be with you and have normal behaviour but also have an affair on the side or some sort of infidelity going on. You can’t just rely on these hints. Sometimes you will never know. Trust your sixth sense and sometimes it’s just better to be honest and ask face-to-face if you think something is going on. last minute plans These plans, that he didn’t have when you asked about what he was going to be doing earlier on this morning. But a “mate” just got in touch and they are meeting up. If, when you ask he doesn’t want to talk about it as much as he would do when he would really go with his mates then he is probably lying, straight to your face. Defensive attitude If when asking him about his day to day and the things he used to say to you don’t make sense and you happen to question it and instead of ju...

CASUAL CONVERSATIONS He sure doesn’t ask about what you were up to last night and sure is not interested in knowing.
