New Year's resolutions are a great way to show your significant other you care. Set goals, be bold, and start with these 2022 goals for your relationship.

1. Stop expecting him to be Prince Charming

Come on, ladies. You deserve a guy that would be chivalrous on his way to work and whisk you off on an amazing date. Let him know how you feel. Once he gets the hint, get him out on the town on a budget.

2. Stop making him choose between you and his friends

This is not a situation where he should choose a girl who takes care of herself. The girl he's with should also be that kind of girl.

3. Stop making him choose between you and his job

Remember to keep a balance in life. You need to let him go to the game, be a part of his journey in the movie industry, and still nurture your career. You have to be okay with the fact that you both need to work on this relationship.

4. Don't take your partner for granted

When he comes home from work, don't automatically ask if he had a good day. Remember, your significant other isn't a robot. Sometimes he just wants to vent or be held.

5. Don't make him choose between you and his family

Family comes first. He has to put them above everything else. You are always welcome to join his parents and siblings. Be patient. You'll find him.

6. Be a little selfish

There is no point in you spending money on a man if he's not thinking about you. He's going to spend what he earns on you, not his family. As a romantic gesture, offer to buy the groceries when he gets home from work.

7. Don't keep on talking about your ex

Nobody is perfect. You two might still be friends but make a promise that you will do everything in your power to stay away from each other.

8. Stop over-planning your dates

There is a simple saying about fish and guests: "They should only be together if they know their place."

9. Don't talk about marriage too early

Marriage is not that big a deal, for now. Set the tone of where you two are at the moment. If you are both in a good place, it's a good time to talk about marriage. If you are not ready yet, you will get married in a couple of years anyway.

10. Don't neglect your own well-being

Women want to feel sexy in their marriage. We want to feel our partner is looking at us in ways only a wife can. Women will feel happy about the way their husband dresses and what he drives.

However, in no time at all, you will start treating yourself better, take care of your skin and figure out a way to do things on your own.

11. Keep your New Year's resolutions

The ones you make at the beginning of the year, stick to them for the entire year. Life changes so fast. You'll meet your soul mate, fall in love, get married, have kids, and build a family. Have a set of New Year's resolutions for your marriage and also, if you get married, for your family.

12. Consider taking up a year-long paid course for marriage counseling

You're going to need help from time to time. There are many couples going through challenges, so the idea is to learn how to handle and have an effective relationship.

13. Start learning how to be a wife

If you want your marriage to last, you need to work at it. Learn what it is like to be married to another woman. Learn how he expresses his emotions, what she wants, what he likes, and so forth. Educate about each other and take each other on as people. It will make your marriage a fulfilling one.

14. Talk about everything

Give each other the space to express and talk about everything they feel. Don't say anything about your feelings until you both get comfortable and trust each other.

15. Treat your partner like a Queen

You're in this together. Be on your best behavior. Take care of each other, and be your spouse's support system.

This list might seem like a lot. However, the key is to remember that even though you're a team, you are individuals as well.
