“Can I Help You Be You? Touch Me with Support”
By supporting the ones we love, we are saying to them, “You are not alone.” Men and women who do not feel support from their partners will eventually stop sharing things with them because they don’t feel as if their partners will care. If this happens, you may miss out on some invaluable insight from your mate.

How you make your partner feel when he or she is with you is what makes your partner stay with you. If you show him or her that you don’t care through your lack of support, your partner may be sitting in front of you, but his or her heart could be miles away. Make sure that you consider your partner’s feelings when he or she mentions something to you that may be important to him or her. If you have not shown any support, don’t be upset or surprised when you receive a lack of support in return.

“Summary”
Support your partner at every possible moment to make sure that he or she remains open to you. The minute you fail to give your partner the support he or she needs, you run the risk of closing the door to his or her heart; your partner may never share with you again based on your previous lack of support. When this happens, you may never know what is going on in your partner’s life.

“Daily Interaction”
Find a TV program, movie or topic that both of you would like to watch or discuss. Fill a bowl with scoops of your partner’s favorite flavor of ice cream and feed him or her. The one who feeds the entire bowl of ice cream to the other first has the choice of what activity, topic or movie is watched or discussed the next time you do an “Ice Cream Feed.” Try to do this as much as possible.
