For example if you are contributing to the household financially and don't have a key it might not be your woman. Russell's new book: Is He Your Man Or Is Your Head In The Sand a pocket guide to empower women to know for sure.

Relationship Reminders for women

Great talk show topic.

Always good reminders!! for women

1. If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn't want you, nothing can make him stay.

2. Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.

3. Allow your intuition (or spirit) to save you from heartache.

4. Stop trying to change yourselves for a relationship that's not meant to be.

5. Slower is better.

6. Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.

7. If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve then heck no you can't "be friends." A friend wouldn't mistreat a friend.

8. Don't settle.

9. If you feel like he is stringing you along, then he probably is.

10. Don't stay because you think "it will get better." You'll be mad at yourself a year later for staying when things are not better.

11. The only person you can control in a relationship is you.

12. Avoid men who've got a bunch of children by a bunch of different women.

He didn't marry them when he got them pregnant, why would he treat you any differently?

13. Always have your own set of friends separate from his.

14. Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up.

15. Never let a man know everything. He will use it against you later.

16. You cannot change a man's behavior. Change comes from within.

17. Don't EVER make him feel he is more important than you are...even if he has more education or in a better job.

18. Do not make him into a quasi-god. He is a man, nothing more nothing less.

19 Never let a man define who you are.

20. Never borrow someone else's man.

21. If he cheated with you, he'll cheat on you.

22. A man will only treat you the way you ALLOW him to treat you.

23. All men are NOT dogs.

24. You should not be the one doing all the bending...compromise is two way street.

25. You need time to heal between relationships...there is nothing cute about baggage...deal with your issues before pursuing a new relationship.

26. You should never look for someone to COMPLETE you...a relationship consists of two WHOLE individuals...look for someone complimentary...not supplementary.

27. Dating is fun...even if he doesn't turn out to be Mr. Right.

28. Make him miss you sometimes...when a man always know where you are, and you're always readily available to him- he takes it for granted.

29. Never move into his mother's house.

30. Never co-sign for a man.

31. Don't fully commit to a man who doesn't give you everything that you need. Keep him in your radar but get to know others.

Earn more than your man? 5 relationship tips

How high-earners can keep a happy home

Earn more money than your mate?


A recent “New York Times” story focused on the problems some high-earning women are having in the dating arena. The men they have been going out with are, to some degree at least, having trouble with the fact that these women are now the breadwinners.

This is understandable. Women as the primary wage earners is a big shift. On average it is true that men working full-time still outearn women working full-time. But it is also true that since the 1970s almost all the income growth in this country has come from women. Today, 30 to 40 percent of women earn as much or more than their husbands. The younger a woman is, the likelier she is to outearn men her age. And research predicts that by the year 2030 the average woman will outearn the average man.


In 1981, 16 percent of women outearned their spouses. In 2000, it was 22 percent. Today, it's 30 to 40 percent.

And it's a problem. We like our traditional roles. Men and women are happier in marriages in which the husband earns more money. Men and women are happier in marriages in which the woman does more of the housework.

What happens in these situations? Unfortunately, too much of the time when women start outearning their spouses, they begin to compensate. They try to hide it by putting complete financial control in the husband's hands or earmarking the woman's income to pay the bills so that there's no money left to spend as she sees fit. Other times, the woman feels so guilty about outearning her partner that she takes on more and more of the housework. Rarely will either spouse admit that the woman is the breadwinner to their friends or family. And more of these families split up than average. Is there a solution?

Talk and listen to each other
Paychecks and housework aside, a new study from the University of Virginia shows that the factor that contributes most to a happy relationship is whether you and your spouse are engaged emotionally.

Be his biggest cheerleader
Make the effort to understand why your husband gets such a kick out of his career (even if he doesn't get as big a paycheck). Tell him you admire what he's doing. And if he's home with the kids, tell him how you believe it's helping the family as a unit. You have to believe deep down that what your partner is bringing to the relationship is just as valuable as what you are bringing. Otherwise it's destined to fail.

Open yours, mine and ours accounts
This allows you to pay for dinner out of the ours account without discussing whose money it is each time. You can do the same with family vacations, cars, groceries, things for the kids, etc. The separate accounts allow you to maintain a little financial independence — a chance not to ask permission about the things YOU want to buy.

Focus on the endgame
No matter who is earning the money, take the time to dream financially. Set short, medium and long-term goals — vacations, buying a house, etc.

Recognize that marriage changes things
Interestingly, researchers have seen a marked difference between the money habits of people who just live together and people who are married. When people are living together, they operate as two independent souls who just happen to reside under one roof. They both wash dishes. They both pay bills. Women feel little pressure to give up work that is meaningful to them. But when those people marry, they start carrying the cultural weight that comes along with being husbands or wives and behaviors change. Husbands hand over the social calendar (again, generally). Wives all too often cede financial control.


25 tips for relationship successby

1. Without quality time, your relationship will not survive. Carve out at least half an hour a night, and at least one day a month when you the two of you spend time exclusively together.

2. You will both need security, comfort. A good relationship is built on compromise and a great deal of give and take on both sides.

3. Keep your dependence and independence in balance. Tell and show your partner how much you need him, but don't cling, as that can make your partner feel trapped.

4. Encourage him to listen to you, by showing appreciation when he does. By the same token, show interest when he talks to you. Be aware that most men aren't mentally programmed for conversation in the way women are. They need more silence and internal time.

5. Make him appreciate you. Don't wait for a spontaneous compliment, but say something good about yourself and ask for his agreement.

6. Teach him, preferably early in your relationship, exactly how to give you a fail-safe orgasm because it's unlikely he'll find out alone. If you don't yet know yourself, find out.

7. Learn to do the one thing that is most likely to restore good feeling in your relationship - giving your partner a genuine, loving and approving smile.

8.Often those subtle quirks that first attracted you to your partner can, with time, turn around and become toe-curlingly annoying habits. Learn to love him, warts and all.

9. Hidden resentments poison a relationship; so if something bothers you, say it. Remember that while men are wary of emotional conversations, they love to find solutions. Express your problem and then ask him to help you find the answer.

Why Do Women Say Yes, When They should Say No.

Sex: It's different for men

I sell an ebook. It's for women about relationships with men. With my ebook I offer a Free 15-minute coaching session to go along with the book. Now I didn't have any idea what these women would want to speak with me and assumed each session would be different. To my surprise, and my assistants, I can tell you what nearly 90% of these sessions consist of. It goes like this....

"We had 3 dates (pick a number) and it seemed to be going so well.....I slept with him.....and now he doesn't call me anymore. I don't know what I did wrong?"

I'm not kidding when I say nearly every call is some version of the above. The problem isn't that the woman in question made a mistake in terms of being mean, stupid or selfish. The problem is that they often don't realize how most men feel about sex. Men live for it, will pay for it, climb a mountain for it, marry for it, etc. It is the primary means for a man to FEEL deeply. Now, if this is such a strong drive in a man wouldn't he be thankful and loyal to a woman who gave her body to him? Actually it depends and what he had to do to have access to her body. If all it took was 3 dates, a couple of meals and some sweet talk, then no he won't be loyal at all because it came rather easy. In many regards, it's like a drug addict doing whatever they can for the high. When a woman gives into a man, or even initiates sex before a man is committed to her she is playing with fire. Whether you agree or not, I've heard it too many times in my office.

When a Woman gives her body to a man exactly what more is there that she can give? Isn't it only fair to expect a man to give the same amount in return? For a man this involves committing for life? I don't think so because after all when a woman (or man) has sex with someone, that person is going to be in their head for the rest of their life. There is a chemical bond, whether they want it or not. When a Woman makes a man work for her heart and offers her body as the prize, a real man will be willing to commit to her for life. He has invested in her because she has acted like sex is something special that deserves his complete loyalty. Otherwise, for most men, it's just something fun to do, no more and no less.

8 Simple Tips To A Successful Relationship

1. Learn that punishing your partner won't work. It may make you feel better to give them a hard time, but it will actually make them dig their heels in more. A better tactic is to reward the things you like and ignore what you don't like.

2. Money is the number one cause of couple conflict. For a relationship to work, you need to address your finances and work out a budget.

3. If the domestic work is not divided fairly between you, it will cause friction in your relationship. Make a list of the domestic tasks, talk it through with your partner and mobilise the whole family, your partner included, to share the work.

4. If you have children, involve your partner as much as possible with the childcare - even if you feel they are not as good at it as you are. It's important to present a united front to your children.

5. Sort out your sex life. The sex may ebb and flow over the years, but if sex starts going downhill, don't just accept it. As soon as you notice a slide, question why and then work at bringing the passion back.

6. Don't assume you won't be tempted to have an affair as almost everyone is. You need to learn to resist. If you do stray, don't feel it spells the end of your relationship. Most couples recover, particularly from a one-night-stand, and often find that unrooting the cause of the affair helps them to get even closer. So, you need to learn to resist. But don't think that an affair is the end of everything.

7. Remember that boredom typically covers up anger. If you feel bored with him, ask yourself what you're angry about.

8. Be aware that men generally feel overwhelmed by emotion more than women do. If he's angry or tearful, half an hour's 'unflooding' time to himself will help get his balance back and make him more able to interact positively with you.
