During the early part of any relationship when both parties are wonderfully blissfully in love there is a tendency to believe that feeling is all that is needed to carry them through any and all situations.
That feeling of walking on air can be very pleasant and all too often very deceptive. When some couples run head long into reality they are surprised to find out that they are not ready to handle certain difficulties. Inevitably there is a breakdown with in the relationship and before long both parties are ready and eager to call it quits.
Every couple of course wants to live the ideal romantic relationship but what many do not understand is that the process is ongoing. There is never really a day you can take off when it comes to working to make the relationship better.
And how do things get better?
1. Talking It Out
Over the course of your relationship the two of you are going to experience trial by fire. If you profess to love each other you better believe the world is going to put that love to the test. That is why it is essential to keeping the lines of communication open at all times. Finding out where your significant other stands on different issues no matter how major or minor can be a significant boost to the health of the relationship.
2. Got Their Back
Marriage and romance mean you are in it together. Few things can threaten a relationship like believing you can count on your spouse only to find out they are nowhere to be found because they do not have the resolve to deal with the obstacles. When trouble strikes they bail out and leave you holding the bag. If you cannot trust them and vice versa the chances of building a strong romantic relationship will go down the tubes fast.
3. Humble Pie
Things cannot be your way all the time. When for instance a disagreement looks like it may escalate take the high road and let your spouse have the final word on the subject. See if you can find an area of agreement. Most arguments are about ego. The strong desire to justify ourselves. If you can let it go then let it go.
