A key ingredient for a couple’s existence is the set of values they bring
into a relationship. Each one of us has some type of values that was
instilled into us either by family or friends. There are several types of
values that are important if you are looking for a successful and happy
marriage.
Patience- to me is a key aspect in a relationship for a couple of
reasons; first, it gives your partner a real vivid picture of your mental
status; people with patience seem to have better coping skills and
second, people with patience tend to see the whole picture and are able
to help diffuse the negativity and increase the positivity.
Be observant -This value seems to elude many couples involved in a
relationship; the importance is critical because it gives your partner the
feeling of being valued; ( i.e.- notice appearance/ work quality and the
mind signals that are sent). In a relationship this value empowers you to
understand what surrounds you and what is the importance now.
Have compassion- This shows the kind and loving side in a
relationship; it has so many components such as communication,
empathy and understanding. When we care for another it opens a world
of honesty and love. Showing compassion helps you as a person,
because it presents an inner quality that demonstrates sincerity and
trust.
My last value is a rare one and that is understanding. This hidden
value helps to complete the many components of a relationship. It helps
to identify the inner emotions and thought process our partner may have.
Sometimes, understanding can be difficult, however, it paves the way we
feel and without it the relationship may fail. The more we understand our
partner, the more we are aware of their identity.
