It's also important to recognize that there
are ups and downs in every relationship.
You won't always be on the same page.
Sometimes one partner may be struggling with an issue that stresses them, such
as the death of a close family member. Other events, like job loss or severe
health problems, can affect both partners and make it difficult to relate to
each other. You might have different ideas of managing finances or raising
children. Different people cope with stress differently, and misunderstanding
can rapidly turn to frustration and anger.
Don't take out your problems on your
partner. Life stresses can make us short tempered. If you are coping with a lot
of stress, it might seem easier to vent with your partner, and even feel safer
to snap at him or her. Fighting like this might initially feel like a release,
but it slowly poisons your relationship. Find other ways to vent your anger and
frustration.
Some problems are bigger than both of you.
Trying to force a solution can cause even more problems. Every person works
through problems and issues in his or her own way. Remember that you're a team.
Continuing to move forward together can get you through the rough spots.
Be open to change. Change is inevitable in
life, and it will happen whether you go with it or fight it. Flexibility is
essential to adapt to the change that is always taking place in any
relationship, and it allows you to grow together through both the good times
and the bad.
Don't ignore problems. Whatever problems
arise in a romantic relationship, it's important to face them together as a
couple. If an aspect of the relationship stops working, don't simply ignore it
but address it with your partner. Things change, so respond to them together as
they do.
