Hold The Door For Your Man, Too

Equality starts with this.

Us girls were all raised to believe that when we grow up and get into a relationship, the men should take care of the lady. The man should hold the door, pay the dinner bill, make that bread... the list goes on and on.

I mean, yeah, the man should treat his lady right, but the woman should also treat her man right, too. It works both ways.

Nowadays, as the woman is becoming more equal to the man, that means that BOTH partners should be treated equally, meaning that BOTH should be pampered and cared for.

Your boyfriend shouldn't be expected to pay for your meals every time you two go out. Give him a break and pay for it once in a while, too! Show him that he doesn't always have to take extra responsibility.

I get it; it feels nice to be taken care of, but make sure that they are feeling appreciated, too. Hold the door for him every now and then to remind him that he comes first in your eyes.

Give him that back rub. Make him hot tea. Be his shoulder to cry on if he has a bad day.

If he treats you like a queen, treat him like a king. It's only fair.

You can't expect to receive the love you give out if you only make a half-hearted attempt, so love the way you want to be loved in return.

If you want to grow with your partner, make it known by your actions. The two of you couldn't possibly grow together if only one of you gives more than the other. That would make it a dependent relationship and would fall apart instantly.

It takes two to tango, so make that effort, too, ladies.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
