Every begin is filled with hope and trepidation. But then the relationship deepens, the excitement slowly goes away and the problems begin. Still experiencing moments that are reminiscent of your first days together, but they are becoming increasingly rare. You know for years and you think you already know everything about each other. But is it really? Of course, that relationship requires effort, but it does not mean it has to be dull and monotonous. In Relationships beauty lies in the little things you do for each other. And although it is not easy to keep a long relationship and achieve that harmony which so couples dream, there are several rules that will help you in this regard:
- Find a common dream and make a plan. Do you remember what you dream with your partner in the beginning? For a trip? Total hobby? Dog? According to experts should not forget about those dreams. The general plans and objectives are the foundation of communication.
Do not forget about intimacy Physical attraction decreases with time and it is normal to feel as if something is missing. Well, your task is to find the missing part. Intimacy plays a very important role in any relationship, so it should be among your priorities. Much easier to go through the problems that occur in any relationship if you saved intimacy with each other.
Do not stop communicating Communication is essential for your relationship. When you are together for a long time, you have to share everything with each other - problems do you think accounts, failures, successes, and awards. Effective communication is one that is based on honesty and increases your sense of intimacy.
Evaluate moments Nobody is perfect and after a while, you start to notice some flaws that in the beginning were not impresses you. But past shortcomings is very easy to forget about the positive aspects. Is there anything he does (they kiss before he left to work; you open the door?) And what you really like? Tell him! Very often relationships become monotonous and disintegrate because people take the other for granted and thus not encouraged to behave.
Both will change and you have to accept it Scientists say people change every seven or eight years. Sometimes the change is small - in hairstyle or style of dress, sometimes much more drastic and affects the character. When this happens, the other partner should not be turned into a critic. Support in these moments is very important.
compromising when necessary Compromises are an inevitable part of any relationship. It is normal to not share all views of your partner, so you must learn to accept others' opinions peacefully. A relationship in which one always expects to be imposed could never withstand the test of time.
Learn to say "sorry" Each of us has made mistakes, who later regretted, but not everyone has had the courage to acknowledge them and apologize. If you have a connection and make a mistake, there's no reason not to excuse your partner. Stubbornness is a big enemy of happiness and long-term relationships. So forget about pride. Moreover, you yourself will have to learn to accept excuses and to forgive.
Never give up Each connection problems occur and many of them are solvable if efforts. Yes, it is easier to simply opt instead to make sacrifices, but if you really love that person will fight for your relationship and it will pay off one day.
