These are some suggestions that are good for both sides of a healthy relationship.
Steps
1. Enjoy pleasing him.
Men like to be appreciated even after you've married them. To do so well, be a well-rounded, pleasing person yourself.
2. Have as your goal for each small interaction of your day, to leave him with a good feeling. Be supportive. Be nice. Be kind.
3. Listen to his day and share yours. Being together also means being intimate. Intimacy does not always have to include sex. Intimacy is listening to one another and feeling comfortable enough to tell one another anything.
4. Support him and try to understand his needs, a man likes nothing more than an understanding and an equally compromising wife/girlfriend.
5. Don't show him even the mildest forms of contempt. Contempt is poison in a relationship. It is fine to disagree with him, but do not take on an attitude of superiority, even subtly in passing, such as momentary smirking, sighs of disgust or eye-rolling.
6. Don't do everything for him, but do things for him often. Don't let yourself be taken for granted, though!
7. Don't be too insecure. Putting yourself down in front of him is another way of insulting his taste in women. If he is with you, its because he wants to be.
8. Expect the best from him, too. If he wants to be treated well then he needs to do the same for you. You aren't his doormat!
9. Don't expect the moon. Do not expect your husband to exactly follow wikiHow's "How To Be A Great Husband". He needs to keep trying, you need to keep trying, but neither of you is perfect. Unmet expectations tend to frustrate everyone. However, if you both plan on giving seventy percent of what is required to make the relationship work, you will always be covered, even when one of you comes up a little short.
10. Give each other space. Go out with your friends. Let him do the same.
11. Love him, care for him when he's sick and needs help. Don't obsess over him, but don't leave him entirely to himself. He does need love, just like you do, and many men especially appreciate attention when they are unwell.
12. Compliment your husband. Everyone likes compliments, but you have to mean them.
13. Ever so remind him that no one can take care of him like you can (even though He relies on his mother and grand-mother sometimes) by all means dont get offended by that.
14. Sense of humor is always best - find his inner child,laugh and relax with him
15. Teach your children how to honor and respect him (by doing so yourself)
16. Don't be afraid to challenge him (if you know that you know that you know)He'll find it sexy that you're willing to show him your strengths.
Tips
* Always expect the right to have an orgasm during sex. If he does, you can too! It's only fair - sex is something both of you do, so you both get to reap the rewards! Besides, many men find their wife/girlfriend's orgasm to be as emotionally rewarding as their own - it's not a competition!
* Remember to take time for yourself as well!
* Accept his faults, and embrace your own.
* Do your share of the work, not just the housework.
* Have a cheery disposition. No one wants to be around a crabby person.
* Learn something new, and encourage him to learn it with you.
* Work out financial plans together - maybe open a joint bank account or write your will together. If he won't do this, don't be afraid to save money for yourself. Do not rely on your husband to support you should he die or divorce you. Be a smart, modern woman, but a balanced wife/girlfriend in a good relationship does not "start saving for the divorce the day after your wedding" - if you expect to get divorced from day one, you probably will!
Warnings
* Nagging can damage a relationship. Instead of nagging, ask once, then leave it be. If he won't do something, then you shouldn't do it, either.
* If your expectations are truly too high or unrealistic, then set standards that are obtainable. It is unfair to expect to be lavished with possessions and have the love of your life home for every meal. Should you want more together time be prepared to have that desire fulfilled at some expense.
* Don't lie to him. Ever. Not even a little.
* If he really is lazy then be prepared to lovingly but firmly tell him - don't just pick a fight over it, but realise that if you won't pull him up for it, who will?
* Submission doesn't mean rolling over and dying every time you disagree - it means preferring his happiness to your own. Of course, this only works in a relationship if he prefers your happiness to HIS own too!
* Don't over spend. Even on groceries. Be responsible together with your money.
* Except in the rare event that your husband also happens to be psychic, don't expect mind-reading powers. If you want something, ask. If something is wrong, say so. Don't drop hints or figure he'll "come around", communicate calmly but clearly and directly.
* Make a comfortable place in the house where you both can be together, but almost "alone" at the same time. Not in each other's faces, but there for each other.
* If you're forced to do things (sexual, verbal, and physical) it's definitely not a very good relationship. Talk things out or see a counselor.
* If he turns violent, even once, make sure you're safe. Depending on the situation that might mean moving out, or calling the police, or telling someone what's happening - whatever you do, don't continue to suffer in silence, and don't accept abuse (physical or otherwise) in your relationship.

The best person to speak with about your relationship is your partner.
Sometimes general guidelines can be helpful for the young/clueless/hurt/etc. But if you find a good match, it's usually simplest and most natural to take clues from each another and to ask directly, not fiddle around guessing (esp. based on generalizations and stereotypes).

also from wikihow:
HOW TO BE AN EMO GIRLFRIEND
Being an emo girlfriend can be quite difficult, especially when dating a "non-emo" or pretty much anyone else. You must maintain your "emo-ness" but at the same time, still be yourself.
Steps
1. Make your boyfriend feel like he's important to you, like you really need him.
2. Keep a semi-girly emo look so that your boyfriend doesn't feel like he's dating a guy, or a manly chick. Wear some bright colors, like pink, bright green, neon purple, etc.
3. Try to find things that you both like as a couple, such as going to concerts, shopping for matching (or semi-matching) clothes, shoe shopping, wearing a lot of makeup, etc.
4. Watch movies together. It's alright to cry in the sad bits, and it's fine to laugh when the mood is happy!
5. Writing and reading each others poetry. You can see what's on each other's mind, and get a better insight on each others main feelings, and it also helps you connect at a whole new level.
6. Try to relate to him. He can show you the things he likes and enjoys, and you can find what you like. And try to get him to relate to you by talking about your interests.
Tips
* Be yourself!
* Tell him about how you feel often, like when you're sad, happy, etc.
* When you're really upset, it's okay to cry.
* Never lie about about yourself, or to yourself. Be honest about
everything.
* When you choose a "couples" song, make sure that it has great meaning
and deep insight, and an emotional connection to your relationship.
* No pet names! You can express you love in other ways like matching
clothes, matching underwear (at least no one can see that) or by simply
holding hands in public, its cute and innocent.
* Listening to your favorite bands together, it helps you find more things
you have in common and to enjoy each others interests.
* Find things that you have in common!
* Never act too jealous!
Warnings
* If you do use pet names, remember to invent a new one just for him; it'd
be quite embarrassing to call him something you called your ex.
* Remember - emos aren't always sad or depressed! They are generally
quite happy people.
* Some emos don't like to cry!
Things You'll Need
* Girly accessories like headbands and bracelets
* Dark nail polish! It can be black (preferred) or be creative and use colors like dark green, blood red, dark purple, magenta, or even yellow can be cute.
* Lots of dark eye makeup - eyeliner, mascara, etc.

While I think you can just change a few words around and the original post would apply to both genders, here's the wikihow on being a good boyfriend:
How to Be a Good Boyfriend
There are wikiHow articles that tell how to sweep a girl off her feet, or how to flirt, or what-not, but there are none that explain how to be a good boyfriend. This is an important skill to learn, as it will possibly make both you, and your girlfriend happier.
Steps
1. Understand that every girl is different. This is not a "one-size-fits-all" guide. This does however, give a good starting point for any relationship.
2. Let her know that you care for her by being interested in her. Stick to your own thing, but do acknowledge things she likes to do.
3. Be honest. Being honest to your mate is very important, in a mature relationship, honesty is the best policy. Tell the truth even when it hurts! It may be difficult, but the truth will allow relationships to breathe. No matter what happens, no one can ever challenge the fact that you are truthful, which might mean that the other person also gives you the same respect. If something doesn't suit her let her know, otherwise she will not trust your opinion. But make it sound like a compliment. Suggest an alternative. For example, if she asks you if you like a dress she is trying on (trying on, not already wearing at a party!) let her know that you think the blue one suits her colouring better, or is more flattering.
4. Remember that girls are often led to be much more emotionally oriented than men. However, remember that unless your mate suffers from physical ailments that affect her mood, the mood swings that appear to be random for you, may very well have very significant reasons that you're just unaware of. After all, your partner is an entire person, with a lifetime of experiences, associations and memories, and not just an empty vessel to play with. Your girlfriend could also be having her period - remember that also this causes mood swings.
5. Don't brush her off. People often find it exasperating when they get the feeling their partner treats them as an inferior in a relationship. Women are no exception. A lot of women have been taught that the only way to get attention when their partner is trying to ignore them is to act more emotional and be louder until the partner finally surrenders and pays attention to her, even if in annoyance. If people feel they're being given the cold treatment by people who are supposed to be important to them, they get worried. Especially as it distinguishes them from you without giving an explanation for why this disturbance has occurred. People aren't mind readers, your girl is not likely to be able to guess that you're cranky just because she wouldn't let you do something that she felt was very trivial, whereas you found it important.
6. Communicate. Do not talk her ear off, however make sure that if you have any problems that will affect your mood, she is made aware of the reasons for your problems and mood, so that you do not appear to merely be a fickle and cranky creature. Make her feel like she is the only girl on your mind. Just zone out everything around you when you're talking to her, she will feel like she is the center of your universe. If you ask her a question, ask her because you really want to know. For example, ask her what types of movies she enjoys, or about one of her favourites. If you know it, talk about it a little bit in an honest way, what you thought of it, and make a guess at why she might have liked it. Even if you are wrong, a girl will love the fact that you are interested enough to try.
7. Give gifts at unexpected times. Anyone can buy a gift for a birthday, Christmas or an anniversary. Listen to her when you are out window shopping, and if there is something she likes, and it's within your price range, remember it and surprise her with it in a week. For no reason at all. Or pick something up on your way home from work, and tell her you were thinking of her when you saw it. It doesn't have to be big or expensive, a book you know she will like, or a CD of her favourite band are ideal gifts.
8. Be accommodating. If there is something she likes to do, but you don't really like it, do it anyway, and don't complain. You will probably find that you enjoy doing the activity because you're with her. Most guys are unaware, but most women love guys with manners. Hold the door for her, pull out her seat, and offer to pay everytime (though allow her to pay if she is insistent).
9. Try doing something unexpected. Go to a new restaurant, try a new nightclub or go to a new part of town. Even if you both end up hating it, it's an experience you can share and that's what it's all about isn't it? Creating memories together. Surprise her by doing something offbeat-- think less maudlin and more personal. This includes anything from racing her to your walking destination, dancing without music, or even bringing her a tub of LEGOS and encouraging their immediate use. You two should grow to be comfortable with each other, and doing things together without self-consciousness. Ideally, she should never feel stupid around you for wanting or doing a particular thing.
10. Compliment her sincerely. Find something particular and compliment her on it, but mean it. Don't just say, "you look nice". Say " that blue dress really makes your eyes flash", "your hair cut really suits the shape of your face" " that perfume makes me want to kiss your neck" ...and then kiss her neck!
11. Don't whine in excess. This applies both to you and your girl. Whine, and then either try to do something about it, and ask her if she has any productive ideas that may help you, or stop whining completely.
12. Tease her. Teasing builds tension which drives girls crazy - for you! Some girls (and guys) find teasing unpleasant. Be sure you know which your girlfriend likes before teasing her. Don't forget: it's better to give than to receive. The major religions got this right, and for a good reason: mysteriously, you gain more in the long run by giving than by getting. While love isn't all you need, it's the most important thing.
13. Be a gentleman. Even the stuff that seems silly can make a great impression. Hold doors, pull out chairs, and generally treat her like a princess. No matter what MTV tells you girls want, their heart will always go to the gentleman.
Tips:
*Playing hard to get doesn't work for most guys. Tell the girl you love that you do and keep reminding her.
*All girls have that time of the month. Be as supportive as you can because your girl might be grumpy and/or in pain but she wants your love and you have to be there for her. Nonetheless, do not explicitly mention the time of the month to her-a girl hardly enjoys knowing that the world can tell.
*If she is agitated, be nice to her, and don't get ticked off. Remember, she is not actually mad at you, or annoyed at you. She is just going through a hard time. Just let it roll off of you, like water off a duck.
*Keep in mind: the road will be difficult. As in any healthy relationship, you will have your share of conflicts, some tiny, some big. Remember to be true to yourself, and try to abandon any significant selfishness. A relationship is a matter of team work.
*Make sure you're clean and looking good...girls will notice if you put some thought into your appearance.
*If she asks, "Does this make me look fat," and it is not flattering to her, say: "I don't think it is as flattering to your beautiful body as ___" and suggest an alternative.
*Treat her like you normally do around your friends or else she will feel like you're embarrassed of dating her.
*Cook her a delicious meal. Any man can pay cash for a dinner at a fancy restaurant but it takes a special man to cook a homemade meal from the heart to his sweetheart.
*Remember, friends and family can be a strong influence on someone's decisions, so make sure you are honest, open and interested in them and don't criticize or make fun of them! It's the quickest way to lose someone.
*If you travel, stay in touch with her so she knows you haven't forgotten her.
*When she is mad at you, kiss her out of nowhere.
Warnings
*Never cheat. It remains perfectly understandable that you'll have wandering eyes, but realize where your heart is and stick to that. One time will be enough to convince a girl to dump you.
*Never hit a girl. Violence is unconditionally unjustified. You can hit them teasingly... Girls DO NOT like to be babied all the time and never be touched.
*Never over-do something. Switch things around a lot and you'll keep the excitement that builds a good relationship, though don't be too inconsistent.
*Give her space. She has friends, too, and doesn't want to be smothered.
*Try not to give her reasons to be jealous. Understand how your actions might look to her.
*Do not push her to do anything physical with you. She will let you know when she is ready.
*Any boy can wait until a girl is ready to do something physical, it takes a man to be chaste even when she doesn't seem to mind. Don't wait for her to tell you to stop: Ask her. "Is this okay?" is all it takes to make the difference between being the best boyfriend in the world and doing something you both will regret.
*Never hold her family's actions against her. No one can help what their family does or says. You can share with her that it bothers you what someone might have done or said but leave it alone after that.
*Try your hardest to do your part of forgive and forget and let it be. No one likes to be reminded of their mistakes.
*Never forget her birthday or other events she will remember. Saying "Happy birthday" does not cut it; girls expect gifts for every holiday. If you do not get her something she will remember and think you're cheap! Late is better than never.
*Go her way but girls don't like guys who apologizes and asks suggestions from her all the time. Sometimes it's just Ok lead the way.
*Don't embarrass her. Most girls, especially if they are teenagers, get embarrassed if you talk about panties, bras, and things like that. Remember, those sorts of things may be attractive to you, but to her they may be something she doesn't want to talk about.

If you're comfortable with each other, those situations should not arise very often...
(1) The ladies should know not to ask potentially loaded questions unless they're ready for a potentially loaded answer due to putting someone on the spot, and (2) His response should be constructive (e.g., "I liked the red one better", or "I think the purple shirt with black pants emphasized the curves better", and so on).

(1) The ladies should know not to ask potentially loaded questions unless they're ready for a potentially loaded answer due to putting someone on the spot, and (2) His response should be constructive (e.g., "I liked the red one better", or "I think the purple shirt with black pants emphasized the curves better", and so on).
Are you always this literal and serious?

lillemur that list is entirely TOO long! # 3 is bunk, example:
"hun, do I look fat in this new dress?" - guy...silent on the outside but internally (holy fuck, what should I say, yeah she look a little rotund around the edges, er those aren't edges, because they are round shit umm, honesty is the best policy fuck, :freakout:)
"not at all hun, you look fine." - guy = :doh: - internally
:shrug: It's not my list - it's the boyfriend equivalent of the original post. Complain to wikihow if you don't like it.

Has it occurred to you that the world doesn't fucking revolve around you? Sometimes when people quote a reply, they aren't responding to that person, they're just using the post as a jumping-off point.
And in response to your lame-o question, no, I'm not always serious. Just because I spend 30 seconds to type a coherent post, that doesn't mean it's SERIOUS BUSINESS.

How to Be Just Friends With a Member of the Opposite Sex
Platonic friendships can be just as or even more rewarding than same sex friendships. However, they can also cause jealousy and other problems in your current or future romantic relationships if you don't set boundaries for the friendship from the start.
Steps
1. Make sure that you want to be just friends with this person. If things go well, are you going to want more? Will they? Be honest with yourself and your friend. They should be honest with you too. Egos aside, address why you both want to be just friends. There's a period in every opposite sex friendship that you question whether or not you should be more. Address it early on. Both of you must want a strictly platonic friendship and understand that's all it will ever be. No matter what anyone says, it is possible to be just friends as long as you have that understanding from the start.
2. Never be too touchy feely with your friend, especially if you're in a romantic relationship with someone. Limit hugs and physical contact to the same amount you share with your same sex friends. If you find the need to hug and touch them more, then maybe you're not just friends.
3. Make sure you do not date your friend! Having a night out together is fine, but don't date your friend or bring them into social scenarios where everyone else has a date. That is called dating, not friendship. You wouldn't ask Your same sex friend to accompany you to your sister's wedding, so don't ask your opposite sex friend!
4. Accept that some flirting is normal. It's called teasing! You have to remember that you are members of the opposite sex and the dynamics will be different than if you were the same sex. However, flirting should never be sexual or romantic in any way. Do it in a playful, friendly way.
Tips
* If you're in a relationship or become involved in one, keep in mind that your significant other may feel threatened at first. It's going to take time, especially if they don't believe in platonic friendships. Be respectful and include your significant other in outings with your friend. Don't hide the friendship, but don't fuel any jealousy either by excessive one-on-one time with your friend or talking about your friend endlessly.
* Make an effort to be friends with your friend's significant other. Find out what they like to do and suggest an outing for just the two of you. Even if you don't like the person, understand there might be a little doubt and jealousy over the friendship. By becoming a friend to the couple, the doubts and jealousy usually vanish in no time.
* Don't meddle in your friend's relationships. If their significant other finds out you gave some "helpful" advice that they view as causing more problems, chances are, they will not want the friendship to continue. Your friend will have to choose and, either way, will lose someone they care about. Don't put your friend in that position. Give advice, but unless your friend is in danger or being abused, never put down your friend's significant other to your friend.
* If you're not in a relationship and feeling lonely, never turn to your friend for physical comfort. It doesn't matter if you'll still be friends in the morning. Platonic friends do not engage in anything physical ever.
* If you are going somewhere that might appear romantic(i.e. a movie or a fancy resturaunt) but you do not want it to appear that way invite another friend of the same sex.
Warnings
* In any friendship, the dynamics change over time. An acquaintance you don't really care for all that much today might be your best friend a year from now. It's possible you and your friend will develop deeper feelings after a long, platonic friendship. But like any friendship, resolving whether to act on feelings requires honesty from both sides. It doesn't mean you were never platonic friends. It just means the friendship has changed like all do. React to the new feelings in a way that preserves the friendship and makes both of you happy.
* If one of you strongly believes this should be a platonic relashionship, and the other isn't so sure, Don't get all awkward or mad right there. Just make it clear to each other that you don't want this to get in the way of your relationship. I'm sure one of you will see it the others' way before long.
