Significant Other Instruction Manual-INT

This will be a journal style project. It can be hand written or typed. I personally will be typing mine and then making it into a book. You can just straight up write it or you can prettify it if you want but it’s not required. Make your journal 4x5 or bigger with at least 15 pages. The smaller the book the more pages its required to have. Since I’m typing mine I will probably fold a regular 8.5x11 page in half to make my book but it will have at least 20 pages.

All the following prompts must be included (in any order):

• Intro: This should be the first page in your book. Tell your partner about yourself and your SO. Include how long you’ve been together and how you met. This prompt must be at least 1 page typed or 2 pages handwritten. It’s about the details!

• Wonderfulness: What makes your SO special and wonderful?

• Favorite Pass times: Sports, TV, hobbies, video games, crafting (oh lucky you!!!)

• Excesses and Vices: Things your SO overindulges in. This is your chance to VENT!!

• Favorite Food and Drink: Tell your partner what pleases your SO’s belly. Include his/her favorite recipe.

• Sleep Habits: Does your SO snore? Morning person or night owl? Does he/she hog the blanket? These are just to get you started.

• Absolute Must Haves (like football!!): Include any and everything your SO absolutely MUST have in order to be a happy camper and why.

• Quirks and Eccentricities: We are all oddballs in our own special ways. Tell your partner what makes your SO weird and unusual.

• How to Win an Argument: Self explanatory methinks… This one should be interesting hehe...

• Who’s the Boss?: Who runs the show? Why and how? Hehe don’t worry… Your SO will never find out… unless you want em to ;)

• Things to Look Out For: What sets your SO off? What buttons do you avoid pushing? Why? What makes your SO unhappy? What are his/her biggest gripes about YOU?

• Troubleshooting: How do you deal with issues?

Make it AT LEAST one page per prompt. No one line answers. I want you to elaborate as much as possible. If you need 5 pages to respond go for it!! Also please be sure to write the prompt somewhere on the page so your partner knows which prompt you are talking about.

I’m totally open to suggestions for additional prompts. I have given plenty of time for sign ups so I can add more prompts if the collective deems it so. But please note if I add more prompts the page number required will go up.

All members in good standing are welcome to participate. Straight, gay or somewhere in between. I will be happy to angel but I expect I won’t have to in this fabulous group. If you do flake the swapping gods will repossess your SOUL!! And the Queen will boot your ass from the group… You have been warned!

Have a blast and thanks for joining my swap!!
