Lessons one learns about relationship after getting into relationship

Source : freedigitalphotos.net
Relationships are complex and sometimes hard. But there is no magical recipe to make them work. But there are often a few little things which can help you stay connected. Relationships always teach lessons and if you are a quick learner, it will help you overcome your weakness (I mean if you have any) otherwise, you will keep on tumbling. So, after getting into relationship we learn that it is important to:-
  • ·         Spend quality time together
  • ·         Respect each other
  • ·         Celebrate together
  • ·         Communicate often
  • ·         Keep physical intimacy alive
  • ·         Get through conflicts before they get complicated
  • ·         Not to make winning a goal
  • ·         Be open to change
  • ·         Find something that you enjoy doing together
  • ·         Co-operate
  • ·         Put equal efforts
  • ·         Trust your partner
  • ·         Recognize your partner’s likes/dislikes
These are a few things which came across my mind and some of which I’ve learned personally. Being in a relationship is like sitting in a roller-coaster, without the seatbelts on. Hold on tight and your life seems to be a blessing. Everyone’s relationship is unique and there are unique ways to keep it alive.

How to Ruin Your Relationship in 9 Simple Ways


Source : freedigitalphotos.net
Making and breaking a relationship is all in your hands and what influences the most is how you behave in a particular situation. And we understand what works by experiencing what doesn’t but not always.
But most relationships fail. There is simply no way to argue with it. Here is a list of few behaviours which might push you to splitsville.
                  1. Stop Listening - Finishing the sentence before the person, thinking you know what the person has to say. Often it is far different from what the person has to say
                  2. Say harsh words – remember memories can’t be erased.
                  3.  Gossip about your partner – Do not reveal secrets that you’re not ought to or been told not to or talking about the bad habits of your partner.
                  4. Be Egoistic – Ego will take your thoughts to a journey of its own and even if you bite your tongue enough you can’t stop yourself from arguing.
                  5. Blame your partner – It might sound awkward blaming others for your mistake just because of everything you don’t like about the person.
                  6. Ignore your partner - No one likes to be ignored and no one stays in a relationship just to ba ignored.
                  7. Tell what to do? And how to do it? – No one likes to be told but,  just think there might be a better way to do that you didn’t know.
                  8. Not Sharing what you feel – expressing your feelings might sometimes help your partner to realise the mistakes. Most of the times it makes you realise your mistakes.
                  9. Show anger – do this often and you are threatening your relationship.
                    If you are practising any of these, don’t panic. Just starting today work on these issues. Talk to your partner about these issues and about what works out for your relationship and what not. Almost anything can be done by mutual understanding.
