Keeping A Good Relationship With Your Partner

 

"It’s not my partner’s job to make me happy. It’s my job to make me happy." 

Of course it’s easy to feel good when your partner is acting in a way that you want, but needing them to be a certain way in order for you to feel good; that’s bondage.

 Relationships are always hard to maintain. They take a lot of dedication, focus, and work. At times, Finding the right person to settle down with can often feel like a very frustrating game of chance. And even when you do find the right one, you’ll still have your work cut out for you as you make an effort to maintain your relationship.

If you’re looking for a little guidance when it comes to Relationships, you’ve come to the right place. 

Keeping a good relationship with your partner requires that you maintain open communication and honesty. This is actually the key and fundamental part of any healthy relationship because good communication enables the two people involved to know what they really want from the relationship and feel comfortable expressing their needs, fears, and desires, it can increase trust and strengthen the bond between them. 

Constant touch as well as face to face contacts also play parts in sustaining the "falling in love" experience over the long term. Though research has shown that as time goes by, the demands of work, family, other obligations can make it harder to find time together, No matter how busy you are, take a few minutes each day to put aside your electronic devices, stop thinking about other things, and really focus on and connect with your partner. You can sometimes think of something that you enjoy doing together, whether it is a shared hobby, dance class, daily walk, or sitting over a cup of coffee in the morning or you could also try something new together. Doing new things together can be a fun way to connect and keep things interesting. It can be as simple as trying a new restaurant or going on a day trip to a place you’ve never been before.

Touch (physical intimacy) on the other hand boosts the body’s levels of oxytocin, a hormone that influences bonding and attachment.

While sex is often a cornerstone of a committed relationship, it shouldn’t be the only method of physical intimacy. Frequent, affectionate touch—holding hands, hugging, kissing—is equally important. However it’s important to be sensitive to what your partner likes. Unwanted touching or inappropriate overtures can make the other person tense up and retreat—exactly what you don’t want. As with so many other aspects of a healthy relationship, this can come down to how well you communicate your needs and intentions with your partner.
