If You Call This Princess Treatment, We Need To Talk – Rate These 30 Relationship Gestures

Overall these questions, one thing isn't being counted: Sometimes a 'princess' thing is bare minimum. Like after a fight, or if you know she's had a bad scare (like a car accident) or something, a lot 'princess' things become bare minimum just to help her (and yourself) have a better day.

EVERYTHING??? Nah. Know them well enough to know which things are actually important and which things are random.

You have all kinds of "to do" lists at work. You have shopping lists for yourself and grocery lists for home. Still, almost half o the people who voted believe that keeping a list for what their partner likes is "princess treatment". Grow up, people. And it doesn't have to be "mental", just write it down or type it in your phone.

Surely if you have the remotest interest in someone, this should go without so much as a mention.

More on the side than of bare minimum, I’d say. We need to know what our partners like.

Sort of depends what the order is. If it's very complex, that's princess territory. If it's a latte rather than a cappuccino or black rather than white, then it's the bare minimum.

I consider it bare minimum simply because my coffee order is "Light roast black coffee"

at home knowing should be a MUST coffee shops ,meh forget it, we don’t always have same things lol so that’s an impossible ask , but I like my coffee like real ie COFFEE lol n very strong ,so cappuccino three shots oat milk (can’t drink cows milk ) and very. Hot to lol other than than easy ,

You do this this no matter who you're watching with , gf /bf /friends/family

I can't believe 12% of people think that's Princess Treatment. It's surely natural, if you want a watch a programme with that person again in the future.

what about watching the next 8 episodes when you are at work and saying do you want to catch up....

Sod that I just do it myself lmao ,(beauty of being divorced bliss ) no bloke ever done that for me ever , I’m more than capable of pausing something 🙄

Anything I vote as "princess treatment" is what I think is so over-the-top ridiculous and unnecessary, and not really a positive.

Any time you do the split, you give the larger bit away!

I always offer the bigger piece, in confidence that she'll politely insist I take it.

Get your freaking own dude ! if I eating it it’s mine ! Loath people taking things of my plate ,n as for sharing , ffs it’s taken me decades to learn to eat ( recovering anorexic ) don’t even think about sharing mine , I don’t want urs so leave mine alone !! Pfft couldn’t answer this one

We do this the other way round - whoever is travelling texts when they arrive, so that we know the other person is safe.

She is absolutely indifferent to that. I need that much more than she does, because I worry and freak out much more.

Back when my ex and I were first dating, he drove two hours from college (in San Diego) to see me (in Huntington Beach) every weekend, and then back to college again on Sunday nights. I was always so anxious about the long drive and always asked him to please text me when he got back to his apartment safely. I think it depends on the situation/relationship - some people might feel smothered by the other person's constant need for reassurance. I'd met my ex two months after my dad's accident, though, so understandably I was a little paranoid about wanting constant reassurance that the people I cared about were okay XD

I used to do this for total strangers when staying in backpackers hostels, it really doesn't go beyond basic decency.

That would be so annoying.

When were apart (rarely) we tend to keep in touch just for comfort, I guess. Soppy, but true.

That feels incredibly annoying

My dad did this to my mom and she blocked him for a day. She didn’t like being treated as a princess….. (just a story… just let it exist pls :). )

DONT EVEN F KIN THINK ABOUT IT FFS constantly just HELL TO THE NO ! annoying and ott much not to mention obsessed to eugh

I hate voice notes, it's like someone calling you and monologuing the whole time because they only want an audience, they don't actually care about what you might have to say.

Wouldn't work on me, I detest voice messages, unless they are from small great niblings 😍

It depends on her personality.

Surely that depends on what they would want? My wife prefers that I send her some little pictures to remind her that I love her and am thinking about her, but otherwise leave her to work through the problem.

If you genuinely do it as a favor, it's nice. If you do it because you think you're an alpha male and females are too weak to carry their own stuff, it's not.

Although I don't, because of mobility issues, but would.

To me, the obvious answer is bare minimum, but thinking about it, the person most able to carry them should do it. I find something a bit wrong in the assumption that "she" is less able to carry bags. If I had a bad back or something similar, I know my wife wouldn't let me carry anything (she didn't let me carry anything when I had a couple of broken ribs and a broken collarbone).

She can carry some stuff (the lighter stuff) but still. Not all boys are buff (my bae isn’t THATS for sure)

I would rather we both enjoy the movie and both have a say or even take turns choosing

That's actually really annoying and exhausting. Especially when your bf falls asleep or leaves in the middle of the movie every time.

Well what if he hates the movie? It’s best to just take turns. But however it would be sweet if she picks his fav.

Nope nope nope ,that is princess treatment , and actually controlling! ,share in a relationship,turns to pick ,n if you don’t wanna watch it , go to another room n watch something else there 🤷‍♀️don’t be a bloody princess !! It’s not attractive at all (from a woman lol )

There needs to be a middle option for most of these
