Here are ways I would like to share with you to nourish your relationship.
1. Solidify your friendship:
How satisfied you feel or connected, to your partner by developing a
deeper friendship. To do that, incrementally spend more l in your
relationship has to do with how connected you feel to your partner. As
an adult, an insecure attachment style is associated with a slew of
relationship troubles, including jealousy, obsession, and emotional
highs and lows. The good news is that, regardless of your present
pattern, you can become more securely attached, time with her doing
something you both enjoy. Also, regularly ask for updates on your
partner’s likes, dislikes, current stressors, and new interests, as
people change over time.
2. Appreciate Each Other:
Remember when you first started dating, how you used to go that extra
mile to impress her? Well, one of the secrets to a long, fulfilling
relationship is to continue to actively appreciate your partner. If
you’re not sure where to start, a good place is by doling out daily
compliments. Tell her she looks hot or thank her for organizational
abilities when she reminds you to call your mother. The only rule is to
make sure that you genuinely mean what you say.
3. Concentrate on the Present to Ensure Your Future:
Interestingly, the ability of your relationship to weather tough times
has a lot to do with your mutual availability in the here and now.
Unfortunately, over time, for a variety of reasons, many couples move
further apart from each other, meaning that when a rough patch hits,
their relationship doesn’t survive. To build a rock-solid relationship,
start by acknowledging rather than ignoring the ordinary moments in your
relationship. If your partner wants to share something she’s reading on
the net, for example, take a minute to listen, even if you simply grunt
in response. It may sound strange, but if you accumulate enough of the
little things, when you really need your partner, you’ll find she’s
there for you.
4. Don’t Distort:
If you find yourself stuck in this rut of distorted thinking, the next
time you have a negative thought about something your partner has done
try to come up with a more neutral explanation for her actions. Another
strategy is to consider whether you would judge yourself so harshly if
the situation were reversed. Finally, remind yourself often of the good
times you’ve spent together recently.
5. Share power:
While hoarding power may have got you ahead in your career, this
strategy will backfire in your relationship because your girlfriend will
end up feeling like her opinions aren’t valuable and she doesn’t matter
to you. To help save your relationship, develop a more accepting
attitude toward compromise. Practice by giving in on issues you don’t
feel extremely invested in.
6. Find Common Goals:
The aim is for both of you to share what you want your life to be about,
where you want to end up and what these things mean to you. Look for
anything that’s common between the two of you and talk about ways to
work toward that aspiration together.
7. Break Negative Cycles:
Troubled relationships tend to follow a demand-withdraw pattern. That
means that one person tends to be more critical and demanding, while the
other tends to withdraw or shut down in response to conflict. To break
the negative pattern of conflict in your relationship, next time things
get heated, let your partner know what’s going on with you by saying: “I
can see this issue is important to you. I’m feeling too angry to
discuss it right now, though, so let’s come back to it once we’ve cooled
off.”
8. Focus on What’s Fixable:
As long as an argument doesn’t leave you feeling like you’ve been through an emotional roller coaster, consider it fixable.
In particular, the initial stages of living together may be especially
fraught with monetary concerns. So that this problem doesn’t spiral out
of control, sit down with your other half and craft a detailed action
plan, consulting any resources that might help to get your finances on
track. You should both be able to live with the new arrangement or it
won’t work. Use this method to address any other problems in your life
that you deem fixable.
