100 things you should know about your boyfriend

Sometimes it’s hard to know for sure what you can reasonably expect from your partner:

• Should she return every text at the earliest opportunity?
• Should he make time to hang out with you every weekend?
• Should you split the bill 50-50 every time you go out?

But before you can resolve these specific questions, you need to establish the basics—the things you can ask, with confidence, from every relationship.

What are your expectations in a man

Following are 8 such "basics" you have a right to expect from every romantic relationship.

1.Affection

Your partner may express this either in words, behavior, or both, but physical affection, such as hugging, kissing, back or foot rubs, or holding hands is especially important in romantic relationships.

Your partner should like you as a person, and be able to demonstrate that in a way that reaches you.

2.Compassion

When you’re hurting, you have a right to expect your partner to be, in the words of Phil McGraw, "a soft place to fall." He or she should be tender with you if you’re in pain.
