Don’t Avoid Conflict
We know that you don’t want to fight with your partner, but if you’re unable to work through conflicts without them turning into screaming matches, you might need something more serious than a blog about relationship advice.
If you avoid talking about things that matter to you, or avoid voicing your own opinions and thoughts for fear of disturbing the peace, you might end up becoming exhausted of the relationship before the relationship dies down. This is a fatal mistake in all relationships that you need to avoid.
Have faith in your relationship and in the person you have by your side, and work on your own ability to talk through difficult topics without losing your calm as well.
Let Them Know The Real You
We know it’s hard to be vulnerable around someone new, but you don’t want to be stuck with someone who thinks you’re someone you’re not. This is why it’s essential that you let people know who you are and keep communication open, and hope that they’re doing the same.
Letting someone get to know and fall for the real you, without any of your guards up, is one of the most rewarding things ever. Not to mention how it will save you a lot of heartache and pain down the path by driving away people who won’t be able to understand you, much less give you love and companionship.
Know the Difference Between Wanting Someone and Needing Someone
While wanting someone in your life is okay and healthy, needing someone is a recipe for disaster. Your partner is, no doubt, your companion and yoru support system, but you shouldn’t lean on them so completely that you feel crippled in their absence. The right balance is when being around someone brings you joy and happiness, but you’re not completely lost without them either.
Humans are imperfect beings, and putting the pressure of your whole life and happiness on the shoulders of someone else is an unfair thing to do, not to mention how it will never make you happy.
Be Your Own Person
That said, never lose yourself and who you are in a relationship. Remember that y9ou might be with someone, but you are yourself first before you’re someone’s partner. Giving up on your dreams and ambitions and making your relationship the entirety of your life only increases the chances for it to fail, and puts undue pressure on your partner.
The only way a relationship can work is if it is formed of two complete individuals who make each other happy and lift each other up, and you can’t do that if you constantly need the identity your partner lends you to feel good about yourself.
