7.KEY FACTS TO BEING IN A HAPPY RELATIONSHIP
By: Intervention Date: December 8, 2015, 10:35 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Not all relationships in the world are messed up,
not all of them are dysfunctional and that is what
we tend to focus on; but what about a happy
relationship? Is there such a thing as a completely
and utterly happy relationship? You might not
know what you are looking for if you are in one,
but don’t worry, I’ve got you covered! While every
relationship is different in its own way, these are
just the foundations that every happy relationship
has. Take a look!
1. Communication- The biggest key to being and
knowing you are in a happy relationship is that you
know how communicate with one another! Lyndsie
and I might have our problems with communication sometimes, but
we know how to
communicate with each other most of the time. If
we didn’t, we would be so unhappy and we’d
never, ever be able to resolve anything!
Communication is knowing how the other person
is going to react and really understanding them.
2. Respect- The biggest key to being and knowing
you are in a happy relationship is that you know
how communicate with one another! Lyndsie and I
might have our problems with communication
sometimes, but we know how to communicate with
each other most of the time. If we didn’t, we would
be so unhappy and we’d never, ever be able to
resolve anything! Communication is knowing how
the other person is going to react and really
understanding them.
3. Understanding- What goes hand in hand with
respect? Understanding. You’ve got to be able to
understand your partner, understand their moods,
get their reactions and really know where they are
coming from, otherwise it is going to be a hard,
hard relationship that you’re in.
4. Fair fighting- Oh, fair fighting is a huge one! If
you want a relationship that is happy, you aren’t
going to want to name call or really hit below the
belt with some of the comments you make.
Instead, fight fair, fight politely and fight like you
still care about each other. I know that it’s hard
sometimes, but it’s worth it.
5. Little things matter- Don’t forget about the little
things and don’t forget to tell each other how
much you love each other.
6. Taking interest- One important tip for keeping
your relationship the best it can be is to take
interest in the other person’s hobbies, interests,
desires and goals. Even if you don’t agree with
them 100%, understand them, or find them very
exciting, this is a fantastic tip for anyone looking to
enhance a relationship. Taking interest in another
person’s values and interests not only opens you
up to new experiences, but gives you more things
to talk about with that person. It also shows them
that you care and want to be a part of all aspects
of their life.
7. Say no to secrets- Secrets will ruin a
relationship faster almost more than anything else.
Don’t keep them, and don’t allow them to ruin a
happy relationship. Even if something is hard for
you to talk about with your partner, do it. Keeping
secrets will almost always turn out badly. You’ll
instinctively migrate away from them, even if in
small ways, out of guilt for the secret, or because
you’ve got to work harder to cover it up. Be honest
and open with anyone you’re looking to maintain a
good relationship with.
