How to make a long lasting relationship ? 

Many couples wonder how to make their relationship last for ever. More than 50% of marriages end up in divorce.(Assumption). Did you ask yourself why are they happening? What happened to the old times where people used to stay together for ever? Time has changed and now there are many issues that contribute to the failure of a relationship.

To make a relationship last longer, follow the below guidelines:

1. Learn to communicate with your partner.

Learn to listen to what he/she says without judgment. Your partner might have different opinion when compared to that of yours and that is fine. You can’t make your partner accept your opinion if he/she does not want to. Be interested and sympathetic because you should care about your partner's concerns.

2. Appreciate the other person.

If your partner does something special for you, thank him/her. This is a simple thing, which makes a lot of impact in your day to day relationship. Adding sugar coated words to the appreciation would definitely do wonders.

3. Trust.

Building trust between you and your partner is essential to making the relationship everlasting. You have to be honest with your partner about your intentions and actions. Trust is like a glass..Once lost cannot be gained..Just like a broken glass where the broken crack can never be hidden.

4. Spending time together.

Most of us might say that we are busy with work, household activities etc and there is not much time to spend with our loved ones. The truth is that "There is always time". Getting up early to share a breakfast together, sharing daily household works, complementing each other when possible, asking how he/she is feeling which portrays your care & affection play an important role.

5. Keep things private.

Cute little quarrels and fights are the most common in a relation. This is the spice of life. There is not a single relationship that does not have arguments. Remember to keep all arguments private between you and your partner. A lot of couples after having an argument, start sharing it with their parents or friends. Entry of a third person might create a distance between you and your partner. Never let a third person judge your argument. Solve it by yourself and keep your egos aside.

6. Don’t change your partner.

Many couples try to change something about their partner that they don’t like. If you don’t like something about your partner, tell him/her about your concerns, but don’t force him/her to do something they don’t want. Its good to have your opinion heard and understood accordingly but its always incorrect to go against it if your opinion is ignored. Instead try to think and analyse why he/she is against your opinion. 

Remember its always good to have your concerns solved by talking with each other than taking hasty decisions and regretting it in the future.

Hope these tips would be of some help to atleast a few to keep your relationships stronger...!
