I am sure that, at some point, you have been in a relationship with a man or a woman that you thought you would spend the rest of your life with. However, I often hear the same story come from most men and women, in relationships: "I need something new and I am losing interest." This is when you start taking him/her for granted and not being appreciative of the little things that he/she does.

A very special person taught me that I was under-appreciated in all of my previous relationships. I did not realize it until I started seeing the way this person treated me. He always sees the things that many men did not take the time to see. He sees the way I analyze my thoughts, how I react to situations, body language, and the way I look at him when I see him doing the little things that I appreciate just as much. He shows interest in my intelligence and my life experiences. He wants to know what makes me tick and what makes me happy. We never argue; we just agree to disagree. We can sit down and have a three-hour intellectual conversation and not get bored because we appreciate the sound of each other's voices and intelligence. He literally appreciates every little thing about me. I remember being in complete shock for two weeks because this was not something that I am used to. Now, I can't really do anything but be amazed by him. He sees the little things in me that even I didn't see.

So whatever problems you are having with the one you love, remember that something so little is so admirable. Do not take each other for granted and never forget the reason you fell for them in the first place. We often let go of that and focus on what we think is a bigger issue when that's not even the case. The little things are usually the biggest things at the end of the day. The way your person walks, talks, blinks, sleeps, kisses, thinks and loves is something worth appreciating. Do not let the harsh thing we call life cloud your judgments and thoughts about him or her. It's the little things make loving someone so easy.
