Soul mate, lover,
call it what you will, there will come a time when love reaches its hands and
touches the romance in the air and you can’t help but breathe it in. Being in a
relationship takes effort and time to cope through confused feelings and sometimes
it will end in heartbreak. Appreciation plays a role in keeping a love story
together.
Here are mainly 5 tips from yours truly, as to how
appreciation can go a long way.
1) Listen to your lover.
Your partner might not be able to speak out
their mind most of the time, but once they bring down the walls around them to
let you in, listen attentively to what their words mean. Do not simply lend an
ear just for the sake of replying. By being around them when their whole world
is suffocating can help ease the pain. Listening is not the same as hearing.
They might not always want a solution, sometimes by talking things aloud can
brush off some burden from their shoulders.
2) The simple give and take.
In every relationship, there will be
situations where we would have to give our arms and leg for our partner.
However, if it is one sided, be aware that your relationship is at risk. No one
should have to feel as though they are chasing the other. Give and take in
order to help keep the love alive.
3) Respect their decisions.
Even if you do not approve of their decision
making method, at least respect and understand the reasons as to why your
partner has set their minds on certain issues. See them as an independent individual,
stop trying to mold them into something only you want.
4) Be involved.
The best way to be involved in their life is
to always have the curiosity for how their day went. Constantly make sure you
are interested in what ever has occurred in their day. In contrast to that,
tell them how your day has gone as well, this is so your lover knows how much
effort you put into letting them into your world.
5) Never doubt your partner.
Insecurities are normal in every
relationship, however, it can become bitter once you use your insecurities to
hurt your partner. Never assume your partner is not being faithful to you,
instead tell them what has been on your mind lately. This can dodge any
problems that can occur.
Even with these tips, I am not an expert in maintaining good
relationships, however, it is common sense to obtain all these qualities. Reevaluate
yourself and constantly remind you appreciate your partner in crime by always
being interested in whatever they do. In the process, you can learn every
details about them every day. Remember, you are partners and equals, never
settle for anything less.
