Today I learned what 3 things make a relationship.
1. Mutual support emotionally - If you donโt support each other mentally during bad times, things are going to get rough in the long run. You guys are partners. You know he has someone to talk to, and thatโs you. So be patient and try to be in your partnerโs shoes. Be emotionally available for the one you love.
2. Mutual respect and respect for boundaries - very very important. Without respect, nothing lasts long. You have to respect each otherโs decisions, choices, boundaries, dreams, goals, everything. If you donโt like something, then communicate. Share what you feel in a respectful manner. Donโt hurl abuses, or make someone feel hurt just because something in their life is not right according to you. You have the right to express your opinions to your partner, just be respectful and have a peaceful mindful deep conversation.
3. Communication - like I said in the second point. But itโs not only about respectful communication, itโs about actively communicating what you feel. Got hurt by what he/she said? communicate. felt something disrespectful or something you donโt like in this relationship? talk about it. Communication helps a relationship blossom in the long run.
Hope this helps. <3
