A reader, I Dont Lie +, writes (4 June 2007):

I Dont Lie agony auntYou havent really asked a question so I dont really know where to start. But Im going to try this at an angle I think you're stuck at.

You are right in saying that there are no perfect relationships. There is no perfect anything, period! But having said that, defintions of being in a perfect relationship vary from one person to another. Your perception of 'perfect' might not be the same as her 'perfect', if you see what I'm getting at. And her definition of 'perfect' might not be 'perfect' to you, which means it would be easier to be that 'perfect' boyfriend for her. I hope I havent lost you yet. You need to know what her perception and thoughts are about her ideal relationship, and once you suss that out, then only can you start making her feel like she is in one.

However I dont really recommend you do everything in your power to please her so that she can feel special. Just be yourself, and if thats too much for her to handle or if she feels you're not special enough, then I dont think you're in the 'perfect' relationship yourself!!
