Solid Foundations Result In Better Relationships


The average person becomes involved in at least a few relationships before finding one that is right. This is probably a good thing because the failed relationships are really not failures at all.

Like anything in life, when we do not totally succeed we should consider the experience as valuable because we were presented with the opportunity to learn.

If you look back over your own or other relationships that you are familiar with that did not work for some reason you can learn more about what makes a lasting relationship.

For me it seems that honesty is essential in a trusting relationship.

I have even known couples that had open relationships but if the honesty was not complete then there were problems.

When I consider the relationships that I have in my life and relationships of others that I am aware of it appears that the best ones involve two friends.

I am sure that most if not all relationships begin with at least some form of friendship.

We meet someone, we think they are perfect for us, and the relationship continues.

This is where many of us make a mistake.

We assume that because this person seems so perfect for us that things will continue in a positive manner forever without any work on our part.

Whether you consider it work or fun, when the two of you are discussing hobbies, work, families, friends, or anything else you should be using that time to explore any areas that the two of you can use to increase the bond you already have.

For instance, if you both like to read but you like different types of books you could regular trips to your local bookstore and you could explore the shelves together.

I know this does not sound like a lot but if this becomes a habit for your time together it will become a special time together.

You do not have to find extravagant or expensive things that will bond you.

There are low-cost classes for practically any topic you can think of.

Taking a class together means that you are committing to a long term project together. That in itself is a way of committing to one another.

Not only will you spend the time together but something like that helps to build memories that you will treasure for years to come.

Be the best friend you can be to your partner and expect nothing less from him or her.

I hope that you have found some helpful tips here for how to build a lasting relationship.

But you always need to keep learning and researching for more help and expert guidance if you want to keep things fresh and current.

You are a life Saver!!

I recently discovered this site and I can tell you that my life has not been the same. I now come here EVERYDAY and spend at least 1 hour.

I used to spend that time browsing online fashion and beauty magazine which just means that I spend more. Now I have replaced that habit with coming here.

In future I will think about contributing articles as well. Thank you! Thank you!! Thank you!!! and God bless"
