AHHHH... (sound of sudden enlightment) I see.
Ok, this is quite a challenging post. I find that the real exercise of IM is to clearly and honestly state what you want.
My feeling is that if you say: "I want a better relationship", it's too vague. Why are you frustrated with your relationship at the moment?
Is it because you're not talking to each other?
then you can say "I intend to have an open communication with my SO"
or "a fun communication with my SO" or whatever you like.
Is it because there is some cheating going on?
then you can say "I intend my partner to have eyes only for me"
There is an infinite possibility of intentions. You just need to be really specific and think about what would make you happy. And if you think you really don't know what a heck is the problem, you can say "I intend to have an understanding of my relationship situation"
I do not think you can control his reaction or behaviors. In the end, it is up to him to want to be happy with you. However, you can intend to find the strength to convince him to do this or that, and see what happens.
Good luck!
