For a relationship to truly succeed, both partners must put in a conscious effort, and work hard on it constantly. Only then can you achieve a truly amazing and long lasting relationship. 

Petty misunderstandings and ego issues develop cracks in an otherwise perfect partnership. There will be hiccups as you journey together but rising above the roadblocks is what separates a happy relationship from an unsuccessful one.

Mistakes to Avoid

To deepen the special bond you two share, stay clear of making the following mistakes that can potentially damage your chances at a long-lasting relationship:

Failing to Communicate

A relationship that lacks honest communication leads to its potential downfall. Conversing with your partner throughout the day is a healthy sign. This also includes being an attentive listener.

When you do this, you can ensure that neither you nor your significant other will feel alienated. Use these casual conversations as building blocks to reach out to the other in all earnestness. 

That is the best way to express your emotional support for one another. Any sign of disinterest from either side in having an open conversation is a cause for worry.

Talking behind Each Other’s Back

Complaining about your partner to your friends or other family members is a disrespectful act. If you have an issue with your lover, discuss it directly with them. You can only resolve such differences when you bring them to the other person’s notice. 

It is hard, no doubt but, that is the best way to address and resolve the issue. Your partner will also be happy if you raise the complaint, rather than having a close family member or friend do it on your behalf. 

Distrusting Your Significant Other

The foundation of every serious relationship is trust, and where that is lacking, individuals start parting ways. If you find it hard to have complete faith in your partner’s intentions, spoken word, and actions, your relationship will start breaking down. 

You may have no concrete reason for this mistrust, and it is often just a figment of your imagination. Regardless of whether the doubts are warranted or not, discussing your nagging fears openly with your partner can go a long way in addressing them and putting your mind at ease. 

Carrying this burden within you may lead to your suspicions snowballing and eventually creating a massive disturbance in your relationship. 

Controlling Tendencies

Trying to control what your partner says, does, or how they think is very damaging. You can express an opinion but refrain from calling the shots at every stage. Your significant other is, after all, an adult with a mind of their own. 

Even if they fall short of your high expectations, it still does not entitle you to control their life by telling them what to think, speak, do, or even eat. 

Every individual is unique, and quite often, in relationships, you are drawn to someone with opposite personality traits. Respect your differences, and instead of attempting to change the other’s habits, appreciate them for who they are, and you will be able to have a long-lasting relationship.

Not Spending Quality Time Together

Indulging in couples’ activities like cooking, playing a sport, or watching a show you both enjoy is an ideal way to spend quality time together. When you do something you both like together, it can be a fun way for you to bond with your partner and strengthen your relationship further.
