Happy weekend to everyone in the community, as always I like to participate in the engagements, this time I chose the theme about the five things that make a good marital relationship.
And in the first place we have to place ourselves in what is for us a good marital relationship, on what is based the choice of the person with whom you decided to share your life, (love or economic interest) I will not go into details, but I say it because today more than ever I am seeing marriages in which the primary thing is the economic aspect and then I guess they do not have much in common in the relationship that is established when the union is based on love.
For me the most normal thing is that couples come together because they have a good connection based on love and mutual respect, from here we must lay the foundations to foster a good relationship.
First of all COMMUNICATION and TRUST are important pillars, good communication is the basis of good relationships in all aspects of life, both social and personal, in couples it is very important to speak honestly, be transparent at all times and listen to the other, look for ways to solve conflicts in a healthy and constructive way.
There is nothing more harmful than hiding things from your partner, no matter how difficult or problematic they may be, because the two of you form a unit and this becomes firm with the trust and loyalty of both.
All of the above requires RESPECT, this ensures that both spouses feel heard and valued, regardless of their differences we must consider the person we chose to be part of our life and to carry out our projects together, for me that implies SUPPORT and FREEDOM, in this sense it is important that the other has its space, because everyone has very personal tastes or interests, which do not have to interfere in the relationship and that we can even support this personal realization.
The couple has to feel that the other is their complement, is the one who will support you unconditionally, is that person that just by talking to you you feel that everything will be solved.
A good relationship is not achieved from now to now, it requires love, understanding and forgiveness, we can make mistakes in simple things or not, but if we talk sincerely, without secrets, we recognize the mistake and we commit ourselves to amend it and not repeat it, if we agree to move forward, the past must be buried, there can be no resentment and can not be resumed under any circumstances.
The latter my friends is truly a healthy principle that helps to strengthen the relationship.
My relationship dates back more than 25 years, we are both seniors, without talking, without looking we already know how we are going to react to any situation and we are always there for each other, we need each other to keep going, I thank life for having put him in my path.
