I am a Christian young woman who is in a very good relationship with a nice, Christian young man. But, I struggle with knowing how to treat him right and I often let my attitude get in the way of what could be an even healthier relationship. Our society doesn't stress on how we should be a good partner in relationships. So it is no surprise that the majority of us don't know how to treat our partners. We just "cooperate" with them but we actually don't have any knowledge on how to evoke the best in the them. Any advice?

This question has nothing to do with being a good Christian or a mediocre Christian. I am clearly stating that I have a good man in my life and I won't him to stick around if the Lord says the same. And for those with negative comments, you'll be in my prayers. God bless.

The key to any healthy relationship is for you to first pursue those things that are good for you. In the case of you being a Christian that would include reading your Bible each day, spending time in prayer, dedicating yourself to pursuing the things that God desires for you. As for this person that you are dating, be supportive, share scripture with each other, attend services together, be involved in Christian activities together.
As you both grow closer to God you should grow closer to each other with the skills and habits to cultivate healthy deeper commited relationship grows in each of you.
Passion is always a problem and not just in Christian relationships. But as I Corinthians says, "It is better to marry than to burn with passion." Passion in and of itself isn't bad. In fact it is the evidence of a desire to be with someone. But before you enter into that kind of a relationship you will want to have that band on your finger. In this way God can bless you both in ways that He cannot otherwise.
Hope this helps.

How would you treat a mediocre Christian man? You treat people the way you want to be treated, with kindness and respect. If you're really a Christian, as you say, I think your religion says that very clearly. But I find that most Christians don't follow your religion too closely anyway. What's up with that?

Go to your local bookstore and buy "His Needs Her Needs" by the Christian Marriage Counselor William Harley. It's worked magic with millions of couples, and my parents relationship with each other has sizzled ever since they read it 6 months ago! It seems like they are happy all the time!

Have some open conversation with him.
Straight up ask "what can I do to make our relationship even better?"
Then, just listen.

DON'T LISTEN TO THOSE HEATHENS THEY ARE NOT CHRISTIAN.
READ GOD'S WORD [ THE HOLY BIBLE] IT INSTRUCTS YOU HOW TO TREAT YOUR HUSBAND IN GODLY MANNER AND HIM AS A HUSBAND TO YOU HIS WIFE IN A GODLY MANNER.
GOD BLESS!!!!!
