Relationship Advice – 10 Quick Tips

  1. Do not, I repeat, do not take each other for granted.  That is a slippery slope….south.
  2. Be mindful, every morning you wake up, to set an intention of how you want to show love and care to your partner and then actively show it.
  3. Remember that you and your partner came from entirely different backgrounds, have entirely different experiences and see life through a very different set of lenses.  Be open to listening to your partner’s thoughts and opinions. 
  4. Have fun – be fun – create fun.
  5. Share in the load of domestic responsibilities.
  6. Before saying something in anger, stop yourself and think through what and how you want to say something.
  7. Be kind.
  8. Seek help when there’s first sign of difficulty.  Don’t wait.  Problems are more difficult to repair, the longer they go on.
  9. Work on your own development.  Stop thinking that your marriage would be ideal “if only your partner would……” Ask yourself the following questions:  “is there anything I can be doing to help the relationship?”  “What is my role in the problems we are having?”
  10.  Do not assume you know what your partner is thinking or feeling.  It is much wiser to ask – check it out – be curious.

Namaste,

Barbara
