Ask your partner how they slept, how their day was, about work, what's on their mind, why they've been quiet, why they are being sensitive, what they'd like to eat, and where they'd like to go; make it a habit. Never let them feel unseen, unheard, or ignored.
Any n*gga can fuck you and buy you shit but it takes a real nigga to keep you happy & smiling, show you loyalty, respect, and make you feel like you’re the only girl in the world that matters to them.
