How To Have a Happy Relationship - 5 Tips to Having a Happy Relationshipg a

To have a successful relationship with your boyfriend or girlfriend or your wife or husband, you will need to know how to understand him or her. And in understanding them you will need to know how to resolve conflicts and how not to allow conflicts to come even though they will come up but at least you can reduce the rate at which they come up.

 I know of many happy relationships and i know of some toxic ones too. How can you make your relationship last forever?How can you have a great marriage? And how can stay forever in love with that special someone? Here are some five tips, i believe if you apply them they will work for you.

First, be mindful of how you interact with your mate. We are often reactive in nature rather than taking the time to truly consider what is being said. We are reflexive, often saying the first thing that comes to our mind. This will cause a bad reaction from your spouse and it will eventually lead to arguments and therefore bring marital or premarital trouble. Good communication is very key.

Second, slowing things down, we can respond rather than react. We can practice remaining calm and listening attentively to what our mate is saying to us.Patience is the key here. Don't react immediately. We can "sit with" their comments, deciding how to best respond. Scripture tells us, “A soft answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.” (Proverbs 15: 1) To have a happy relationship, you must be patient with your spouse.

Third, stop when we begin to sense a downward spin. A relationship has no hard and fast rule, what works for you may not work for another couple. We can call a Time Out or request that our mate slow down so we can process what they are saying from a calm spirit within us. Taking a break from the action almost always gives us a fresh perspective.You should be free enough to ask your mate for a break when you sense that you are not enjoying the conversation or when you discover that something just does not feel right again.if you want your relationship to last forever then be sensitive and be willing to express yourself always.

Fourth, use "do overs."Be vulnerable. If you have said something hurtful, and are on a downward spiral, consider apologizing quickly and asking your mate if you can start again. Using a soft voice, a gentle tone and a sincere heart, ask your mate if they are willing to start the conversation over.You should be willing to the same thing if she asks you to come again. Be willing to do anything for her for the sake of a happy relationship.

Fifth, be clear with your mate. Ask for what you need. Be specific about what hurt in the past and what you want different. Openess is the key here. There should be no assumption in your relationship. Don’t be demanding or critical, but rather clear, calm and consistent. Keep a open mind and heart before your spouse. Don't hide anything because if you do, it will easily breed lack of trust and you know trust is very very important in a successful relationship.

Finally, use healthy boundaries. There are some topics that cannot be talked about safely without a trained counselor present. Some topics need significant calm and attentiveness and must be prepared for. Some topics need to never be talked about. Be wise in considering whether you and your mate have the skills to talk about the topic at hand in a healthy manner. Know when and where to set your boundries.

I believe with these few points of mine, you have discovered some keys to help you have a long lasting and a successful relationship. Like i always say, never never never give up, as long as you can read this, then there is hope for your relationship.
