Big relationship error
#1:
Moving too fast, getting overly attached too soon. Are you sure you really want to spend your life
with someone you met, like, a month ago?
Big relationship error
#2:
Taking your partner for granted. Letting yourself go.
Big relationship error
#3:
Broadcasting the goings-on in your relationship to everyone and his
brother. Some things are sacrosanct!
Big relationship error #4:
Thinking it's no longer necessary to keep the romance alive. Because boredom
and indifference can trigger dissatisfaction, annoyance, and even infidelity.
Big relationship error
#5:
Losing your dignity and composure. Over-emotional behaviour. Volatility.
Big relationship error
#6:
Giving too much. Because you're in it to get something out of the deal too.
It isn't only about your partner.
Big relationship error
#7:
Pleading for time / attention / respect / commitment. If it isn't given freely,
it isn't worth pursuing. Period.
Big relationship error
#8:
Giving an errant partner too many chances. Sometimes, even a second chance. Because something that is fundamentally off-track won't get better. It never does.
Big relationship error
#9:
Trying to change your partner. Be with them for what they are, not what
you can mould them into.
Big relationship error #10:
Avoiding confrontation. Sweeping something unpleasant under the carpet doesn't make it go away.
Big relationship error #11:
Using a harsh tone of voice on your partner. Forgetting that your partner is entitled to courtesy and respect from you.
Using a harsh tone of voice on your partner. Forgetting that your partner is entitled to courtesy and respect from you.
BiggEST relationship
error:
Giving up who you are, to fit into someone else's definition of an ideal
partner. "To be with you, I gave up me". Trust me, it can never last.

ReplyDeleteThank you.... #8 is also important, I would say, i.e. recognizing when things are beyond redemption is necessary, else precious time and sanity are lost!

DeleteAll r valid points
ReplyDeleteSpecially we women wear emotions mostly on sleeves 9 out of 10 times and have too many expectations ! One more relation ship mistake is hoping him to behave like a mom or dad but he never will atleast not till some years ;)
Hehe, true...
