Advice for the Lovelorn, With Dr. Zaius

 

This is in response to a post by Blue Gal, in which she explained her feeling about relationships in general, and illustrated the different points that she made with clips from different films, via YouTube. Blue Gal's post was in fact a response to a post by Driftglass, which was a response to an earlier post by Blue Gal, which was in response to a post at Shakespeare's Sister.

It is a challenge in this day and age to build a healthy and long-lasting romantic relationship, and I think that Blue Gal has offered some sound advice in this important matter. Still, it a broad subject, and I feel that perhaps there are a few points that could be covered in greater detail. I submit the following as series of steps one can take in a relationship that will help you and your current or future mate find romantic bliss.

Just click on each link, and each step will be illustrated by the corresponding video. Trust me, I'm a doctor!

Learn to communicate on a spiritual level. Remember to take time out for yourself. Don't ignore, but explore your differences. Build the relationship from it's component parts. Share at least one meal a day with your mate. Set personal goals for your self.

Appreciate the unique temple that is your body. Be honest, tell your partner how you really feel. Show compassion and empathy for others. Relationships are based on mutual trust. Remember that your love is special and unique. Watch out for evil robot heads!
