Every couple at some stage or another want to know how to
make a relationship work better. We all face up and downs in our
relationship and we often may look back and remember how
happy we were when we first met our partner and wonder why
we have relationship problems now.
Whether or not we see it, practically everything changes in
stages. Our personal lives can be broken down into stages as we
age, go to school, start working and get involved in a significant
long term relationship or even marriage. These distinct stages
can also become stages within themselves as you advance
through each one.
Our relationships are no different. There are 5 different stages of a
relationship and you will be able to make a relationship work
better once you acknowledge where you've been, where you are
now and where you're going with your partner.
1. The Rose Coloured Glasses Stage.
The first of our stages of a relationship is probably the favourite
for most people and is known by many names. You're head over
heels in love with your partner and he or she can do nothing
wrong. You're perfect for each other. It could be called the Rose
Coloured Glasses Stage because everything looks rosy. You both
are so happy and think this wonderful feeling will last forever as
you're on your best behaviour and do sweet things for each other
just because you can. It is very rare that you or your partner
argue or fall out.
2. The Disenchantment Stage.
The second stage is known as the disenchantment stage. The rose
coloured glasses have come off and you realize your partner is
human and makes mistakes. He or she is not as perfect as you
first thought. Little habits you hadn't noticed before become
annoying. Romance is still there but is slightly muted. It's during
this stage that common relationship problems can first occur.
Good communication between you and your partner becomes
very important because you're wondering where the fantasy
went and what to do about it.
3. The Panic Stage.
The third stage is the panic stage as the disappointments grow
and the relationship is not enjoyable anymore. There are many
external pressures such as work, your partner's family, money
and there may even be young children on scene now. You
begrudge the fact that your partner doesn't see things the way
you do. It's now that you really need to work hard on your
relationship because if the problems cannot be settled in a nice
way some couples threaten to leave and finish the relationship.
4. The Strength Stage.
If you can make it through stage 3, you progress into the strength
stage. Greater feelings of love and trust are felt as you feel more
self-confident and your relationship becomes more peaceful and
meaningful. The extreme intimacy has passed into more of a
friendship as you each drift into your own hobbies and interests.
Even though you have mastered how to have a relationship that
is more calm and supportive, avoid the temptation to become
bored and enjoy the happy relationship.
5. The Love And Commitment Stage.
The last of our stages of a relationship is probably the best as you
accept your partner for what he or she is, with all their faults and
irritating habits. This is known as the meaningful love and
commitment stage. True love has developed and you're both
committed to working on how to make a relationship work.
You're no longer struggling for individuality but functioning as a
team that can enjoy life together.
What stage are you in? Let's know. *winks*
