How To Maintain A Relationship by Elijahrona(m): 7:52am On Dec 09, 2016
Courting and/or just dating someone is among the best feeling anyone could have. When the relationship is without flaws, it’s even better. How can you make your relationship as flawless as possible? What are the best ways in maintaining relationships? Read this post

In maintaining relationships, there are two major attributes both parties should express

Both parties need

Communication


To make a relationship flowing and active, both parties should communicate frequently. Find interesting topics so they’d know each other better. Both should make sure their conversations are flowing well and interesting.

Trust

Trust is very important. There’s a saying that if nobody talks about you, you’re nobody. Simply said, what if someone says something untrue about you to your fiancée? How would the case be settled amicably? It can easily be resolved if there’s trust in the relationship. One shouldn’t allow side talks to lead the relationship. If you must, just observe him/her but without suspicion.

These are the two major keys to keep the relationship flowing but there are still many ways

Other ways to maintaining relationships

Be open-minded


If you’ve got something bothering you, perhaps someone’s disturbing you, don’t hesitate to discuss it with your lover. If your lover asks you anything about the past (maybe something you’re not proud of), say nothing but the truth for there lies the relationship.

Be truthful

Continuing the above, it’s important you know that anything that happened to you, and how you express it is what hangs the love in the relationship. For example you’ve once lied about yourself to your lover, he/she loves you that way. If in the future you’re exposed, the love would fall. If this is the case, the best solution is to start afresh.

Tell others about the relationship

This is actually a trick. Am not talking about the problems you face cause it’s better you solve your problems alone. What am saying is that if you guys are dating, tell others. If more people know that you’re dating, you won’t easily break up. The reason is that you’ll feel you have to explain to everyone why you guys broke up one after the other.
Apart from that, when others knows you’re dating, you’ll cuddle and express your love better while at public since you’ve got nothing to hide.

Be lovely and romantic

Calling pet names to each other boosts the happiness within. Kissing and cuddling on the other hand, shows your expression of love towards each other. If both parties know that their love is mutual, the relationship would grow better.

"Tell others about the relationship"

lot of girls dont like this, telling others means chasing away prospective suitors. you know girls always want to keep their option open, especially when they feel you aren't the one.
