5 Steps Leading To Balance In A Relationship
Balance and
harmony is an essential part of our lives. We need balance in all
spheres and once it is ruined we feel discomfort. This can be applied to
relationships as well. What are the ways to stay happy and satisfied
with the significant one?
It is obviously your skill to compromise
with each other. Compromise might be sometimes unhealthy or, in other
words, unhealthy. This happens when only one of the partners is ready to
make the other one happy. It is great if you are patient and generous
and willing to let your beloved to do whatever they want. However,
sooner or later you might need and want more understanding from them and
if you do nor receive what you are asking for, then conflict will be
inevitable. Dissatisfaction of one of the partners causes anger,
resentment and other negative emotions. Fortunately, there are a few
rules for you to follow to make compromise fair, healthy and acceptable
for both of you.
1. Compromise and mutual consent requires effort from both sides
It is far more fair to ask the other one to change when you are also ready to make changes in order to demonstrate that both of you will participate in the deal. Keep your promise no matter how hard it might be.

2. Positive compromise is more effective
Even if you feel that there is nothing that should be changed about your habits and the fault is all of your partner’s, try and “bargain” in a smart way. Be wise and remember your childhood and what your mother did when she wanted you to swallow a bitter pill – of course she sweetened it! It will be easier for your partner to accept your offer if you bring something to the table and do something in exchange. For example, if you want your partner to spend some time with your friends although you know he/she dislikes them, make a promise to get rid of one of your bad habits that makes your partner mad. In this situation both will win and none will feel being taken advantage of.

3. Positive vibes and constructive attitude will always help
You have just had an argument and you both of you feel furious about something. This is when you should avoid trying to find a solution to any kind of problem. Compromise is impossible if either of you is not yet ready to cooperate. Let yourself some time to calm down and only then invite your partner to discuss the issue. When compromising both of the partners should be emotionally stable and ready to converse.

4. Define your own priorities
Think well before you invite your partner to start discussion. Listen to what your partner has got to say and define what things are more important than anything else. People tend to change. Start your negotiation with what can be changed in the nearest future and leave harder limits for later.

5. Help each other
If you truly love each other, then there is nothing impossible. Even the most difficult times can be coped with and all problems will be solved if both of you are ready and willing to compromise. Do not give up on each other, provide and accept help and assistance.
