Relationships are not easy. As they say falling in love is easy, staying in love is what that requires the maximum effort.
Some unsaid rules of relationships –
- Communication – It is the most important part in any relationship. It is necessary to communicate to your partner how you feel. It helps to keep the bond stronger and makes you and your partner feel that someone is there for them to talk. During lack of communication in a relationship, you become strangers to each other while living under same roof.
- Understanding – You have to be respectful and understanding towards each other’s personality. It might be possible that one person likes to be upfront about things while the other doesn’t. If the extroverted partner feels that he/she is not heard, they will start developing resentment and might start feeling alone in the relationship of two people. If the introverted partner feels that his/her silence is being misunderstood every other day, he/she might feeling distant from their partner. And to solve this – read the point # 1. It’s the key, buddy 😉
- Romance – Never let the romance in your relationship die. Find ways to surprise your partner every now and then. It is not about fancy dates, trips or expensive gifts. The key is to make each other feel loved. Hold hands while working, give each other hugs, speak nicely to each other, make each other feel that you are there for them!
- Me time – It is equally important to give each other some space. Sticking to each other all the time can be overwhelming at times. Make sure that you respect each other’s privacy and space.
- Intimacy – Last but not the least, just like romance, it should always be there is your relationship. You should always be available to your partner for their emotional and physical needs.
It takes efforts of two people to make a relationship work. There is never “you” and “I” in a relationship, it is always “we”.
If you are reading this, don’t forget to kiss your partner and ask them how are they feeling lately! 🙂
