You think you are not a stereotype, but yet, every morning you must first have a cup of coffee to enjoy in peace while reading a magazine?
Yes, if you do this regularly, I must inform you that you also show stereotypical traits.
However, there is no point in agonizing over this fact and trying to change it. A small amount of stereotyping does no harm, and it gives us a feeling of security and safety.
Of course, the stereotype should not get into our whole daily routine.
You have to have coffee and a magazine in the morning, lunch at noon sharp, a book towards evening, but first you take a shower, then you lie down, fold your robe, and turn on a lamp?
In this case, try to break your daily stereotype a little. Take a book with your coffee instead of a magazine, and have lunch half an hour earlier or later. And in the evening, read a magazine instead of a book, and take a shower afterwards. Even these small changes can make a crazy difference to a very stereotypical behavior.
However, the stereotype can get to us in other areas as well .
Particularly the stereotype in a relationship is a very common occurrence. A certain amount of stereotyping in a relationship can be tolerated. It would probably be an art to avoid it, for example, after ten years of cohabitation. People get to know each other well and it\’s easy to gauge their reactions. You know your counterpart, and you know what to expect. You know what he likes and what he hates. On the other hand, he doesn\’t surprise you with anything and every day with him is the same as the day before.
Spicing up the relationship with small changes is a good start. Such surprises often work wonders. These surprises can also be used in the sexual sphere. Change your sex life a little. Surprise your partner with something new. Don\’t be afraid of change!
Discover new experiences.
Take your lover to a spa hotel for a weekend, but don\’t make complicated arrangements a month in advance. Just make sure he has a free weekend, load him up in the car, blindfold him, and let him look forward to what\’s in store.
However, this advice doesn\’t quite work for everyone, there are types of people who don\’t like surprises. But you surely know what your dear half can tolerate and what he can\’t.
For example, start going to the cinema, the theatre, for walks. If you do all this, think of something else that would change your life together for the better.
