Points To Consider If You’re In Relationship
Relationships are the most important part and phase of a person’s life. The best feeling in the world is being loved back by the person you love. People mostly see a relationship as two people being involved with each other in romantic and sexual ways. But there are other relationships too like the one between a brother and a sister, between the child and parents, between two friends and these too are important in one’s life. If you have family and friends around you there’s no need to be involved in a romantic relationship.
If you are involved in a healthy and romantic relationship that’s good. If you are happy with what you two have and pretty much sure about what you’re doing is right for your age then take it forward. But even if one of you is not happy, having second thoughts about your relationship then it’s time to rethink upon your relationship. A relationship cannot work forcibly and below here are some points you need to consider if you’re in a relationship:
- Think about whether you and your partner are on the same page right now, or is one of you too ahead in his or her mind about the relationship. For example, if you both want to take the relationship forward or are just together for the time being and don’t think of any future together.
- Think about whether any one of you is forcing the other in some way or the other to continue your relationship. For example, if your partner blackmails you or threatens you or beats you up or forces you to get sexually involved, it’s time to end the relationship.
- Get your priorities sorted and tell about it to your partner. This will give you both a clear picture of your relationship. For example, discuss with your partner what’s more important to you: him/her, your family or your career or anything else.
- Make sure that you give each other personal space because if not then you both are going to get bored of each other after a point of time or get possessive of each other. For example, if your partner doesn’t let you go out with your friends or doesn’t let’s you talk to other boys/girls then you need to rethink upon your relationship.
- Think about whether your partner is not controlling your life and the decisions you make. He or she should not have an upper hand in the decisions you make about your life because after all it’s your life and you have a full fledged right to do whatever you want to do. For example, your partner should not be asking for your social account passwords and decides what feed you post up there.
- Always respect your partner and make sure that he or she respects you and your choices. In a relationship, respect is the most important thing also try to understand each other in every situation.
- Trust is something that builds a relationship and helps it grow stronger. You both should have trust on each other and be true to each other. If there are trust issues you both need to sort it out and then take the relationship forward.
- Loyalty is the key to a healthy relationship. Never cheat on your partner or let him or her cheat on you. If you ever feel like your partner is hiding something from you discuss about it and even then you think he or she is lying, show some skills and try to get the truth out of him or her.
- Display your emotions and never compare your relationship with others relationship. Different people have different way of showing love and others are not good at it. A relationship is not about expensive gifts and lavish dates, it’s about what you two have in between is true and priceless.
- Never tell anyone about your relationships privacy and intimacy because this might affect your relationship as one person tells the other and soon the whole world knows about it.
- Don’t keep any secrets (about the two of you) from your partner as this might lead to misunderstanding and miscommunication between the two of you. Don’t let your ego come in between your relationship, ego clashes are the worst.
- Never ever ask your partner to change anything about him/her or let him change anything about you unless and until it’s too bad. Remember you both liked each other for what you are so why to change it.
There is no foolproof method for building successful relationships but always listen to your heart and go with it because if you do so you won’t have any regrets at the end. Never believe that your relationship will be as perfect as the fairytales you read or the bollywood movies you watch because they all are just fiction and are there to ruin our lives somehow. For the ones who are not involved in a romantic relationship, don’t worry and stop feeling bad about yourself. Life is not all about relationships, it’s your life and you can choose what you want to do with it. Stop looking around for your soulmate and start thinking about your own self.
Life is too short to sit and think about that one day your Mr. Perfect or Ms. Perfect will come to you just like in fairytales, go and get a life. Display your emotions and show affection to the people who love you now rather than waiting for the one who will love you. Also to the choosy one’s, nobody is perfect so stop making a list of what qualities you want in your partner. Such people are going to remain single for the rest of their lives. Accept a person for what he is rather than looking out for what you want in him, who knows he might be the best one you’ll ever get.
