A relationship is hard enough. It's even more difficult when you feel you are not been respected in it by your partner When you start with a foundation of love and respect, you and your partner can build a relationship that builds you both up to be stronger, happier, and more fulfilled. It all starts with respecting your partner.
Everyone knows what love is. The problem is, we don't all agree. Several people have developed theories to explain love and what it means in our lives. I see true love as finding your soul mate that one person you are compactable with, that one person you blend with which i described as a substitute for one's perfect image of oneself.
Most people seem to have an ideal vision of what looks like that includes give-and-take, mutual attraction, compassion and caring, and respect for each other. While no relationship is ideal, it is possible to have a healthy satisfying love relationship.
Respect is a feeling you have about someone, but it's also the way you behave and express yourself regarding that person.
Respect is a feeling of admiration you have for someone. It means you deeply admire their abilities, treasure their qualities, and appreciate their achievements. To feel respected is to feel safe, accepted for who you are, valued, and encouraged to be your highest, truest self.
What would love be without respect? You've probably had some experiences that would qualify. Most people have, especially when they were young and just learning to navigate the dating scene. The kind of love that might happen without respect could only be an unhealthy kind of love.
Going back to Sternberg's theory, you love someone if you feel close to them, passionate towards them, and decide to love them. So, you can love someone without respecting them by that definition. What about respect, though? How does it fit in?
For many types of love, such as infatuation or love, at first sight, respect might or might not be a part of the equation. But, if you want true and lasting love, respect is vital. In fact, for those who want the best love life has to offer, love your partner as u love your self they say to whom much is given much is expected love and respect your partner and receive love and respect in return
