Pipit you cannot be perfect in an imperfect world. Have you ever tried to be nice to a jerk? You will be jerked around like turkey. Each situation can only be assesed through our experiences i.e. unique. Instead of putting down particular rules and regulations you should be encouraging certain thinking modes which will apply to multiple instances. Leave particular solutions to really bad cases in which case the couple should seek professional help.
Example: You cannot communicate to an african american guy the same way you would communicate to a kenyan man and the same way you would communicate to a white person. African Americans for example if you are extremely nice and sensitive, that could work to your disadvantage. You have to be pushy and a little mean with them for the relationship to work. With a white guy you also have to be domineering but in a very subtle way otherwise they will run over you like a truck.

Any reasonable person realises that the world does not revolve around them only and has to consider other peoples feelings and interests without having to compromise ones own interests. Thus the need for communication for all those who seem to be down playing the importance of this thread.
Thanks Pipitp..Mashada Brothers and sisters could always use some self-help advice.
