8 Popular Relationship Tips You Should Totally Ignore by Okimski(m): 6:39am On Jan 27, 2015
Over the years, some relationship tips have
been repeatedly offered by those who think they
know, to those who feel they need them. That
these tips are popular does not mean they are
actually true or effective.
Every relationship has its ups and downs, and
there are always friends and family on the side
with endless tips and pieces of advice to share.
Over the years, some relationship tips » have
been repeatedly offered by those who think they
know, to those who feel they need them. That
these tips are popular does not mean they are
actually true or effective.
Here are 8 common relationship tips which you
would do well to ignore if you really want your
relationship to succeed:
1. Love Is All You Need: Sure, love is crucial in
a happy and successful relationship. But
having the idea that love is all you need is
semi-ridiculous. Have people forgotten about
respect, trust, loyalty? Love doesn’t conquer
all. It’s one of the main ingredients in a
partnership, but to say that’s all you need is
misguided. The recipe includes much more
and without the other ingredients, the
finished product won’t come out just right.
2. Love Doesn’t Happen When You’re Looking
For It: Tell this to the millions of people
involved in online dating. Who even started
telling this lie? This statement is not only
annoying, but it’s infuriating to the people in
the world who are actually looking for love.
Just because a person is open and ready to
find his or her match means that it won’t
happen? False.
3. Wait Three Dates To Have Sex: Planning on
when to have sex based on the number of
dates is just plain silly. Dating is not a game
where one plus one equals two. There’s no
exact science. Having sex shouldn’t be
contingent on how many times you’ve seen
your date. It should be whenever you WANT
to. Whether that’s the first date or the
fifteenth, it’s your decision to make for
yourself.
4. Couples Shouldn’t Argue: We're not saying
couples should be down each other’s throats
every single night but it’s normal to have
some arguments here and there. Couples
that don’t fight at all probably aren’t truly
communicating. It’s healthy to have
arguments because it means you and your
partner are talking things through. You are
molding two lives into one, so there are
bound to be some moments of tension.
Embrace it in a healthy way.
5. Never Go To Sleep Angry: You can throw
this old relationship advice out with
yesterday’s junk mail. The idea that you and
your partner should never go to sleep upset
at each other is outdated and nearly
impossible. There will be times you two are
upset with one another, and that’s okay. You
don’t need to rush making things “nice”
again just because it’s bedtime. Sometimes
a little sleep can do the body good.
6. Everyone Deserves A Second Chance: The
only people that say this are probably the
ones that want a second chance. Sure, some
people deserve another chance. But, to say
everyone does is absurd. You have the right
to decide that for yourself.
7. If Your Partner Is Jealous It Means He/She
Loves You: Feelings of jealously in a
relationship can be normal, but acting on
that jealousy is another story. One that
reads like a final chapter. If your partner is
looking through your phone, that doesn’t
mean he or she just loves you so much, it
means he or she has trust issues. It’s
speaking to a bigger issue within the
relationship.
8. The Best Way To Get Over Someone Is To
Get Under Someone: Indicating that the best
way to get over a previous lover is to have
sex with a new person is foolish. Sex can be
a fun distraction in the moment, but it’s only
temporary. Getting down with someone new
won’t help you in the long run. You need to
deal with your emotions about your previous
partner before moving forward. The best
way to get over someone is to actually do
the work of getting over that person.
