6. There’s arguing
Do you know what makes a strong relationship? The answer might not be expected, but arguing is a way of strengthening a bond. It can be a family bond, friendship bond, or a love bond. Nobody wants to have negative emotions, and some people hate confrontation, but arguing and conflict are present in all healthy relationships. Start seeing arguments as a portal to change to communicate and re-direction to a better path. The key here is how you both react to an argument. If you overcome it with communication and respect, then you’re on a good path to a long loving relationship.7. No kids
When in a long term relationship, people usually hit you with “When are the babies coming?” or “When are we starting a family?” Even though these people usually mean no harm, they follow society’s guidelines of what a relationship should be, which is marriage, and then a family. We’re in a modern world, and nowadays, there’s no obligation or rules about having kids. Studies have shown that couples without children are happier than those who have kids. This is mostly because couples decide to create a family when they feel like their relationship is crumbling. A kid should never be a “problem fixer” because, in the long term, it just won’t work. Besides, when you don’t have kids, you have much more time to spend on yourself and your partner. Travelling, volunteering, working becomes easier, and so does the relationship.8. You spend little time together
Sometimes life gets in the way, and even though you want to be with your partner as much as possible, it isn’t possible. This doesn’t mean there’s no love or passion in the relationship. It just means you’re human, and you have a life besides your relationship. There’s work, family, friends to divide your time with, and most of the time, it’s not possible to be 24/7 with your loved one. It’s important to trust your partner. Otherwise, the distance could cause a lot of trust issues and other problems. And if you trust your relationship, you already know that the other person is on the same page as you, and they’ll probably feel distant because they have other stuff going on, just like you do. We hope this list brought you some peace of mind about your love life. You must understand that each couple makes their own rules, and just because you’re a part of a minority, that doesn’t mean you’re in the wrong. A happy couple is a couple who lives by their own rules, at their own pace. As long as there are trust, love, and respect in a relationship, that’s what matters. Make sure to ignore whoever tries to tell you otherwise! There are no rules when it comes to love!- Advertisement -
