3 Mistakes to Avoid While in a Relationship

Avoiding these mistakes can make a world of difference for your relationship.

We all get tips on how to make a relationship work. Usually in the form of things you ought to do. Well, how about what you shouldn’t do? I’ve got a short list of the most important things you SHOULDN’T do if you want your relationship to succeed.

We humans are often self centered creatures. Our world tends to revolve around ourselves and what we want. It makes sense but it isn’t a great attitude to have in a relationship.

When you go into a relationship there’s absolutely nothing wrong with knowing what you want. Having expectations is a good way to avoid being with the wrong person. When you find a good person that you want to be with though, you need to stop thinking in terms of “I” and start thinking in terms of “We”.

We all want and need support and care from our significant others. What we often forget though is how are we going to get it if we aren’t giving it? How can you expect your partner to consider your feelings if you aren’t considering theirs?

Luckily, this isn’t too difficult to fix. You just need to start thinking about what would make your partner happy. It’s a great idea to communicate with them so they can tell you as well. Then, with this information handy, do your best to make them happy.

Remember, there’s no I in team. Consider the needs and wants of your significant other. If you do this I think you’ll find your partner is more likely to also consider your needs and wants more.

Communication is a huge factor when it comes to successful relationships. The thing about communication is that it’s more than talking. You have to be able to listen.

Listening consists of stopping what you’re doing, giving your partner your full attention and actually hearing what they’re saying. You want to avoid getting defensive. You also want to hear them out. That means that you don’t start thinking about your response while they’re still talking.
