Worth Reading If You Want A Healthy Relationship
It is no surprise that most relationships don’t last these days. Everyone wants that one person they can hug, kiss, cuddle with, & go to places with but they do not know how to keep the relationship sparking. Everyone wants to be in a great relationship, but don’t know how to keep/make it STRONG/GREAT!
How do I plan on keeping my relationship strong?
1. COMMUNICATION - You HAVE to communicate. This is where a lot of people mess up because instead of communicating with their partner, they always talking to friends & family about their problems when in reality, sometimes that only makes it WORSE. Communication with your partner is needed in order to keep the relationship strong & healthy.
2. TRUST - Without trust, a relationship is pointless. No trust will make you become insecure, want to look through your partner’s phone all the time, & eventually become a semi-stalker which will cause the relationship to become weaker & weaker. Instead of trying to become an investigator, communicate. Let your bf/gf know how you feel & if they really care about you, they will let you know what the deal is.
3. RESPECT - You must respect one another to keep the relationship strong. If you out somewhere & someone tries to holla, let them know you are “happily taken.” Most will say, “well we can be friends” & stuff like that, but you have to RESPECT your bf/gf enough to say, “no I have the only friend I need.”
4. PRAY - Pray with your partner, that ya’ll will continue to stay strong, ask God to break all temptation of cheating, & help each other grow as individuals. A family that prays together, stays together
5. Be THOUGHTFUL- Do things for each other, its the small things that usually count the most. You passing by their favorite restaurant, get them they favorite meal. You in the mall shopping for yourself, every one in a while, grab something for your loved one. Surprise them by doing things, love, and love hard! Keep yourself up. Ladies: Keep your hair did, nails did, nicely dressed, fresh like you did that first date. Fellas: Keep that fresh cut, dress nice, smelling good. Sometimes we get too comfortable & stop doing that.
Most will say SEX - Some will say “true love waits,”, but regardless of anyone’s opinions, couples are going to do what they choose. I separated this from the 3 above because the top 5 are NECESSITIES in making a relationship work, sex is an option. You & your partner need to talk about this & decide what’s BEST!
If you’re doing all of this & the relationship still doesn’t make it, it just wasn’t meant to be!!! But remember, it doesn’t take 2 people to make it work. It takes 2 LOYAL, DEDICATED, & COMMITTED people to make it work. (:
