Some recommendations or tips to have a healthy relationship. Below we present them to you.
Some recommendations or tips to have a healthy relationship:
1. Have a common project with your partner, a social project, apart from the family project you have.
2. Do not demand very severe renunciations from the other. If you give in to the demands, then “revenge” will come, and he will ask you to give up things you like.
3. Let the other have their space of freedom and you also take that space. Expecting your partner to cover all your needs, emotional, social, and leisure, is a mistake. In addition to the shared space, each one must have their own space. That will enrich the couple.
4. Tolerate differences. Tolerating is not adapting to the other’s way of being, nor making the other do things the way you do. To tolerate is to think that you are different and that, therefore, you do not think the same. Thinking differently is not an attack on your way of seeing things, it is just a different approach to the issue. If you can achieve this aspect, 50% of the success is achieved.
5. If you have children, they cannot take first place. The first place is always occupied by the couple.
6. Involving families in couple conflicts makes it more difficult to resolve them.
7. Don’t expect him or her to meet all your needs and desires. Sometimes we want our partner to be our therapist, our lawyer, our lover, our friend, our confessor.
8. In sexual relations, do not do to others what you like them to do to you. Find out what he likes and for that you have to talk.
9. Learn to converse. Talking is not questioning. Nor is it reproaching, nor trying to convince. Speaking is showing your opinion and listening to the other’s opinion.
10. And when there are things that you don’t agree on with your partner, you can do one thing: AGREE. And for that it is necessary to tolerate that he thinks differently and talk. Talk a lot.
For the rest, I wish you good luck in your endeavor.
