A few tips If you are Running out of things to say in your long distance relationship

long distance relationship can be really hard especially when it comes to conversations, If they were physically present then maybe the look on your face could do the talking. At the start of your long distance relationship you talked for an hour on phone without running out of topics, it was so much fun then suddenly those 1hour calls turned to 30mins, then 10mins, 1minute and before you realised it you no longer want to call or pick their calls because it has become to predictable. Well Thank God you came across this because here are some proven tips to create a long and good conversation with Not just your lover But with anyone.

1) LISTEN : when you listen you could create many topics from what your partner is saying even with the simplest and most cliche answers ..   for example __
You: baby what did you eat this morning ?
Him: I had tea and bread
You: what kind of bread?
Him: white bread
You: really you prefer white bread or that was the only kind of bread available?
from there topics will arise, it might Not be about the bread maybe about the milk He used and so on and so forth. sounds silly right? But with this topic you can end up talking about favourite foods, recipes, eating healthy and many more food related topics.
This way you are also getting to know each other better. This can also relate to other aspects of life like why He prefers driving to a long  instead of taking the train.. This can birth other topics like cars, roads, government and politics

2) TEAM WORK: For you to have a conversation or dialogue 2 people should be involved. Relationship is just like a game of football ,each team needs its complete 11 players to function perfectly or in This case the 2players.
You can't be the only one talking and asking all the questions. If you notice your partner is letting you do the talking then kindly ask them to get on board and If they ain't in the right mood to talk then you could call back.
Being the only one contributing is a big conversation killer.

3)TRY NEW THINGS: If you find yourself having the same kind of conversation everyday then maybe its because you do the same thing everyday, try something new, a new experience would bring a new conversational topic. Even as a person having same routine and schedule everyday  could get boring its Not good to be too predictable.

4)PREPARATION: Writting down what you want to say could be helpful, Lol when I told a friend this she said "am I giving a presidential speech or am talking to My boyfriend"
Writting it down doesn't necessarily mean you will use it sometimes the plans change and we just naturally go with the flow. When you write something down even If you are Not with the paper it sometimes sticks to your brain especially If you were thinking about it before Writting it, so it will be a good reminder If you had an important subject you wanted to discuss

5)TAKE A LITTLE BREAK: If all this ain't working Maybe for some days don't call or avoid their calls, you could send short messages indicating you are busy and little I love you messages here and there.
The experience from those days you didn't talk on phone would make a long conversation plus you both will be anxious to talk to each other :-) it will be like talking to an old friend for the first time in years Hahahaha Yes when you miss someone you love even for  some days it feels like months. Once in a while we need to give space for your partner to miss you it makes the heart grow fonder

Goodluck

My husband talks to me without respect

   Some men are fund of flaunting their male ego on their wife, reasons could be as follows

1) He is the only source of income in the home - some men will always respect their wife  whether she brings food to the table or Not, actually they can even ask their wife to stay home and take care of the kids because that is a full time job. While other men will see her as a lazy woman. He goes to work everyday, he has seen top working class married women that can even bring/win contracts for their husband's But his own wife sits at home all day and do nothing because to this kind of men taking care of the home is as easy as ABC

2) He was raised in a home where his father always disrespect his mother - charity begins at home right? The first school of a child is his home and the first teachers are his parents. I dont need to stretch the explanation because i always talk about how parents should live an exemplary lifestyle. Train up a child in the way He should grow and when He grows he will Not depart from it.

3) He thinks she is of less importance - Where & how some men get their orientation about being husbands always baffle me. Hahahaha they think being a husband is finally an opportunity to boss someone around like their parents has been doing to them all over the years or like their boss does everyday at the office lmao . some could be getting the ideas from their friends, your thinking, "My husband was so kind and respectful in the earlier stage and suddenly He has changed What happened?", well like the saying goes "evil communication corrupts Good manners"

             HUSBANDS

Being the head of a family is about being a leader Not a ruler, You lead in the right part and your wife will follow its Not an opportunity to flex your muscle or male hormones. Now i want You to listen to me and delete all those orientation from your memory that has caused your wife pain for so long.
Being the head of the family is a serious and very important job
It's about protecting your family, You need to be a security officer now You have a family and You  probably should learn some karate because you will need to do a little butt kicking here and there..

Being the head of the family is Not just about bringing the money its also about being physically, emotionally and spiritually present and active, your family needs to know You care, You might think they know already But they dont. 
Your wife is just as important as You are in the family, she is the home maker and without her efforts there probably wouldn't be a home so cherish her

     WIVES
You are thinking how do i get this man to start respecting and valuing me well stop thinking and start acting.
People treat You the way You allow them to treat You, they treat You the way You treat yourself. What is your reaction when He disrespects you, do you sit and cry? Do You yell at him to stop? Well If You do any of these then You should stop and follow this steps because it has worked for several people.

1) figure the reason for his actions

2) Decide What You want to do and things You want to change in your personal life

3) Make a list of What You want to change in that marriage.

4) write everything down so You dont forget any detail.

5) Select a Good day/time to have a conversation with him. It might be on a weekend He wont go to work or on a weekday evening when He is back from work, had his dinner and taken his shower

6) Get a grip on your emotions "today You wont cry or get angry, You are going to sit and have a conversation like a matured adult" If You cannot control yourself and act matured then you cant possibly expect someone to take You seriously.

7) remember dont get angry remain calm. When You are both sitted tell him how You love him and want the best for your home, then calmly say how You feel, let it all out, everything You have written pour it all out.
When You are talking He should quietly listen and when He is talking also listen quietly so there wont be tantrums everywhere, when everyone is talking - no one is talking.

Have a great day
