There is a movie that is called “10 things I hate about you”, it a cheesy old movie. I often think about the title when my husband does not pick up his plate or when he leaves his clothes everywhere. I can keep on and on the little things my husband does that I don’t like.
Sure, I can do that. But I won’t do it.
My husband might not be perfect, but when my depression kicks in, and I am unable to function, he is there for me, holding my hand and telling me that everything is going to be okay. His arms around me fill me with love and warmness.
A relationship needs a bond that connects them emotionally. But how exactly?
Talk everyday
Talking every day can help the relationship to grow. It seems like a simple thing, but talking every day can help.
Trust
Trust is something necessary to create a healthy relationship. Hiding things from your partner will only create distance.
Share your Dreams and Goals
I love running, and my husband does not, but in every race, he is cheering for me, waiting for me at the finish line. When my husband wanted to attend a hip-hop concert, I was the very first one in front supporting him and dancing.
Sex
Sex is an essential element for a marriage. Tender lovemaking is beneficial for the soul and the heart.
Engaging in a healthy relationship means to value and appreciate your partner. I choose to focus on my husband’s attributes instead of his imperfections. I take responsibility for my happiness, but I also rely on my husband when I need help—keeping a stable connection between you and your partner will teach you how to have healthy relationships with everyone, even with yourself.
