There is no such thing as standards or infallible rules to follow to become successful in handling a relationship. So if you are trying to find the perfect formula for success in relationship you will very much end up in disappointment because "ideal relationship" does not have a formula to follow.

But there are things that you can do in order to help you find success in your relationship. Remember this: the success and failure of the relationship, whether it is on the dating stage or after you have exchanged your vows, depend on how you treat yourself, your partner, and the things that connect you together. Therefore, knowing exactly what to do to make relationship work will give you better chances for success. Here are the top ten tips on how to achieve success to your relationship.

1. Learn to compromise. Many relationships fail for lots of different reasons. One of this is clash of egos. Couples act the way they want to as if there is a power struggle. Women are often submissive to men when it comes to who should take the helm of the relationship. But women decide more on emotion rather than logic. Men on the other hand take control and are more logical when it comes to decision making. Now, relationships tend to be shaken the typical type of command is not applied. Although this "norm" is not and should not be treated as gospel truth, there seems to be a great issue if couples go out of this "norm". The tendency is to have conflict. What couples should do is to learn how to compromise and understand each other to solve what needs to be solved.



2. Be productive. Being financially stable of both couples is another great factor to the success of the relationship. Although not all men and women are "gold-diggers", the truth is that it is important for both to generate money for financial survival. This may be nowhere near the ideal foundation of a good relationship but reality dictates that one of the reasons why many couples break up is because one or both of them have reduced or lost their sources of income.

3. Act maturely. This may be a no-brainer but most couples act thinking that they are mature enough to handle relationship and to decide on things that are crucial to the success of the relationship. Not because you're old means that are mature. Maturity is a vague word and maybe can be interpreted differently by different people but one thing is certain: knowing that you have acted maturely on things will take a look back from yesterday. What you can do at "present" is to judge cerebrally and not emotionally the issues, actions, and decisions you and your couple should make.

4. Provide support. Knowing that there is someone he or she can lean on will help the relationship during times (it strengthens emotional connection). It also builds mutual trust among couples.

5. Show trust / Do not cheat. Another deciding factor to the success or failure of a relationship is the trust given by the couples and the honestly they show to their partner. Trust your partner and you will receive the same amount of trust from him / her. Never commit any act of cheating. This will ruin your relationship. As the saying goes, "cheaters never win."



6. Take / share responsibility. It takes two to tango, so as to a good relationship. And taking responsibility on things is one that you should both agree on. Responsibility, however, is not limited to the money, but also on the emotional support among other things.

7. Admit mistakes. First things first: It is okay to commit mistake … as long as you recognize and admit it. It is okay to become vulnerable sometimes especially to men who thinks that admitting mistakes makes them less masculine.

8. Say "sorry". And once you have recognized your mistakes, say "sorry". Do not fight ego with read more...
