Becoming a better girlfriend
My boyfriend and I got into a fight the other night and he said, sarcastically, that I was a good girlfriend (the situation is difficult to explain-- why we were fighting) so, basically, he called me a bad girlfriend. I've been trying to find ways to be a "better" girlfriend now so we don't have this problem again.
Do you have any ideas on how I can be a better girlfriend? He's apologizing, saying he didn't really mean it and it was in the heat of the moment but I still feel like it might be true. I simply want to be the best girlfriend I can be because he deserves happiness too.
So, any tips on how can I be a better girlfriend to my boyfriend?

The only way to be a good girlfriend is be yourself. In a relationship the other person has to care about the other person so do that. It was a heated fight so your boyfriend said something he probably would never say. He feels guilty so it is not true. Don't worry so much because your being the best girlfriend you can be.

sounds cliche, but be yourself. If you try to change yourself or go far out to please someone, your boyfriend wont really be liking you, he'll be liking the fake you. And also you pleasing him a lot or changing yourself etc may make him happy, but it wont make you happy, and a relationship is pretty much a two way thing.
I would say as long as your have the main qualities - loyalty,faithfulness, ability to listen and understand, give and take and being able to trust and be trusted, then things shouldnt be difficult
The only way to be a "better" girlfriend is talk to him. Communication is key.
Ask what he wants, ask him what he thinks is best about your relationship and ask him what things do you do that upset him, then you'll know what to improve on. Tell him you dont want to have arguments, you want things to move forward.
If you guys cant move forward, if you never tell eachother what's on your mind.
You cant improve on things, if you dont know what to improve on can you?
Also , like I said, a relationship is a two way thing, so it's alright you trying to be a better girlfriend, but there must be things that he can do to.
If you ask him what he thinks you guys need to work on, dont get into an argument again. Let him say what he thinks - its an opinion, its neither right or wrong. Dont be offended by what he may say, because you need to be cruel to be kind.
Talk to him, thats the only way to move forward.
If your honest, open and listen to him - you're being a good girlfriend.
Good Luck
Sage :)
