The five "A's"

As I was preparing my profile for a possible date (btw, wish me luck), I recall what I read in Steph's cozy apt in Tokyo about the five "A's" that make a successful adult love relationship.

Here are the five "A's": attention, acceptance, appreciation, affection, and allowing others to be as they are. That's how we should love and be loved.

Sounds cliched? I guess so. But this is one of those things that is much easier to say than to do .
