Improve Your Marital Relationship
According to a recent study on
relationships conducted at the University of North Carolina, when you start
trying to avoid fights or disagreements with your partner, you unconsciously
begin to feel fearful of them. At this point, your relationship starts to lose
its true meaning, and you find yourself, whether you want to or not, drifting
apart from your partner. You begin to lose sight of the positive aspects of
your relationship, and even when you are physically close, you feel very
distant.
Refrain from constantly blaming each other. Don’t focus on proving yourself
right while your partner is wrong; instead, sometimes own up to each other’s
mistakes together. Avoid getting into the habit of proving one person right or
wrong, as once the blame game starts, it does not easily end. Whether someone
is proven right or wrong, a crack will inevitably appear in the relationship.
Don’t Insist on Changing Your
Partner's Habits
Avoid insisting on changing your partner’s habits, especially if you’re not
making positive changes in yourself. Don’t turn unfulfilled desires into
stubbornness and repeatedly bring them up. When pointing out your partner’s
shortcomings or mistakes, never give examples from a third person. This
unnecessary hostility, hatred, and jealousy will eventually take on a permanent
form between you both.
Avoid Arguments Based on Personal
Assumptions
Never initiate arguments based on your personal suspicions or doubts, as your
thoughts may later turn out to be incorrect. Therefore, don’t be overly clever.
Listen to Your Partner’s Concerns
Take time to listen to your partner’s worries and issues. Make your partner
feel that you are ready to hear them out and that you are serious about solving
the problems that are troubling them, no matter how trivial or insignificant
those issues may seem to you. This will foster a sense of belonging and
importance in your partner.
Participate in Your Partner’s
Favorite Activities
Even if it’s just a little, make sure to participate in your partner’s favorite
activities. This will encourage them. Keep your partner informed about your
outdoor successes and joys. This will bring them happiness and confidence, and
they will feel a sense of ownership in your happiness.
For Mental Harmony
Be sure to help your partner with tasks that only you can perform as a marital
partner. Assist in solving a problem that you are skilled at, and your partner
is aware of your expertise.
These small tips can play a
significant role in strengthening your relationship. Remember, a home is built
on these small things.
