We’ve all heard that a relationship “takes work,” but what does that mean exactly?

When you’re having problems with someone you’re in a serious relationship with, advice from well-meaning friends and family who don’t know the particulars of your situation sometimes aren’t as helpful as you’d like them to be. You might be willing to try anything to strengthen a relationship that means the world to you, but if all you’re hearing is Say I love you more and Don’t go to bed angry you won’t have a lot to go on.

 

If you’re looking for effective relationship advice you can use every day, check out these seven ways you can strengthen your relationship:

 

Accept.

None of us is perfect. The first prerequisite for a long-lasting relationship is to accept your partner unconditionally with all the characters, qualities, flaws and behaviors. This should be mutual, so that it avoids conflicts in the first place, and moreover helps in understanding each other better in any situation. Gradually try to adapt to the qualities of your partner for a better understanding.

 

Soften your “start-up.”

Arguments typically escalate when one partner makes a critical or contemptuous remark in a confrontational tone. Bring up problems gently and without blame.

 

Be Honest.

Being Honest and expressing your views and opinions is very important for a relationship to be healthy. Suppressing and bottling up your feelings to avoid fights at that moment, will only make them grow heavy and ugly. Later, the outburst will be terrifying. Being open and honest in a relationship reduces negativity and makes it stronger.

 

Don’t argue over money.

It’s practically a guaranteed relationship killer.  If you haven’t yet had a conversation about how money is earned, spent, saved, and shared, do it now.  Try to get an understanding of how each of you sees your financial life, and where the differences are.  Then address them.

 

Learn what pleases your partner sexually.

Make it clear that his pleasure is your pleasure, and you want to discover everything about what turns him on. He’ll be happy to have you experiment with him.

 

Say Sorry and Thanks.

However close you may be with your partner, small gestures like saying Thank you and Sorry makes your partner happy. This is a small way to convey that you care and respect their emotions. This helps the relationship stronger and healthier.

 

Go to bed at the same time.

It is important to maintain physical and emotional intimacy with your partner, which is often difficult when we are tired from working all day. Couples should hit the hay together at least one night a week. Doing so will provide you with extra time to cuddle and talk about each other’s days.

 

This is how to keep a relationship strong and happy. Following these tips will get you closer to your partner and improve the quality of your relationship. Relationships, against what is commonly believed, are not as difficult to maintain as they are made out to be. Inculcating some habits and behaviors in your day to day life is sufficient to keep your relationship strong, healthy and happy.
