How to have the happiest relationship in modern times

November 11, 2019November 11, 2019 Editor Comments Off on How to have the happiest relationship in modern times


In today’s world, there is still some issues with sexism and getting equal pay, for example, but generally, the dynamics between men and women in society seems to be changing for the better.

There can be exceptions, but in a romantic relationship, being seen as equal, whether in a heterosexual couple or a homosexual couple, is definitely the norm. The dynamics can vary between each couple, but if you want to be in a healthy, happy relationship that is built to last, then it is all about balance. 

Even with that being said, relationships are hard work, especially if you throw children and other commitments into the mix. They do require a lot of effort, and it does need to have a focus and priority if you want it to work.

It can feel easy sometimes, but at other times can be tough and things could lead you to needing partner support counselling or even couple’s therapy. So here are some practices and things that you can do to get through the tough times, so that you can have a strong and healthy relationship.

Quit Poor Relationships Early On

It can sound like something that is a little counterproductive on a post that is focused on building and strengthening relationships, but there is no getting away from the fact that not all relationships do work. If things aren’t going well from the start, then it is obvious. And in instances like that, it can be easy to think that you need to change in order to keep your partner happy, but that should ring alarm bells. Don’t waste time if it is hard work from the start.

Have Your Own Alone Time

We all need to have some time alone, even if we’re not too sure that we do need it. Often we can forget this, but it can then lead to arguments with your partner because you’re tired or frustrated but aren’t having that time alone.

So make sure that you have time alone regularly, so that you’re rested, refreshed, and can be the best partner (and person) that you can be. Likewise, respect the time that your partner needs alone as well.

Let Your Partner Know How You Feel

Having open and clear communication with a partner is really important. You can tell them how you feel but also make sure that you show them how you feel. Your words need to align with your actions. Expressing your love does require you having an understanding of what love and affection means to your other half, as it is different for other people. Reading ‘The Five Love Languages’ is a really good idea, as if yours and your partners differs, then you need to know best what to do for each other to really show your feelings. 

Be Rational And Logical

Your partner needs to be your best friend. But this can require some distance from your emotions from time to time, as you need to be able to be objective and unbiased when needed. Of course, this can be easier said than done, but it will help, especially when tensions rise.
