Avoiding the three mistakes in a relationship.
Notes From Dad
We all want a happy and strong bond within our relationship, however, sometimes we allow our alter ego to create havoc and cause unnecessary problems; this article will look at three possible causes that may hinder a successful relationship.
First- jealousy; jealousy is found in many scenarios. It may emerge from the attention your partner receives; it may be from your partner’s success or it may be you feel that you feel less important than your partner. Jealousy really is about how you feel; it can be a sign of low self-esteem and expectations as well as being in control. Jealousy and love do not go hand and hand, in fact it may be quite the opposite and needs to be addressed in some form of communication.
Second, lack of compassion; it may come in many forms but showing none or very little may cause a strain and/or break in your relationship. Some examples of non-compassion could be lack of kindness (i.e. not caring if someone is hurt or struggling), not being thankful ( cleaning house, making dinner, having dinner ready after a long day at work) and making little or no effort to be with family and enjoy special times together; when lack of compassion exist it may create a very turbulent relationship.
Lastly, the absence of communication; Life can be difficult and there are times we act like turtles and crawl into our shells, however, that just alienates our partner and pushes them further out of your life; most people cannot read minds so it’s important to share your world with one another, the good and the bad; by doing this together you are sharing a bond that is difficult to break.
Good Luck !!
