10 Things You Should Never Compromise On In Relationship!
By- Shreya Sharma
Your relationship should help you grow as a person. It should add to your happiness and your life rather than subtract things and people from your life. But sometimes your relationship can hit the rough patch and can have the negative effect on both partners. Here are 10 things you should never compromise on in a relationship.
- Self-respect
Just because you are in a relationship does not mean that your partner can crush down your self-respect. You should never compromise when the things come to your self-respect. Do not let him disrespect you or your family. Do not let him abuse you in any manner.
- Happiness
Your partner should bring happiness to your life rather than be dragging you on the dark path of sadness. You are in an unhealthy relationship if your partner puts you down. If your partner intentionally hurts you, it is better you leave him.
- Inner peace
Inner peace is important for your own happiness. If your partner makes you feel jealous or nervous, then you might feel depressed. If you have continuous fights, then it is the time to ask yourself about why you are fighting? Can you solve the problem? Can you make your partner happy?
- Freedom
Being in a relationship does not mean that you cannot have a life beyond your relationship. It is great to have a partner who does not get annoyed or throw tantrums when you go out and enjoy yourself without your partner. If your partner is possessive, it shows that he is insecure. In a healthy relationship, you should be able to spend time with your partner and alone.
- Experiences
Life is full of experiences that will make you wise, happy and meet your inner peace. If your partner stops you from trying new things, you might struggle with your happiness. Your partner should encourage you to have new experiences and fun.
- Personality
Your partner should love you for who you are rather than what you could be. You both should not try to change each other’s personalities. A little of compromises are healthy but do not be with someone who tries to change you because it could mean that they do not love you for who you are.
- Other relations
When you are in your honeymoon phase, you are excited and want to spend most of your time with your partner. But if it’s been some time and you still cannot meet your family and friends, then it could mean that your partner is possessive. You should not be too dependent on your partner and should cherish your other relationships too.
- Feelings
You both should listen to each other and understand each other’s feelings and opinions with judgments. Your partner should respect your feelings and if he cannot then ask yourself questions like ‘do I respect my partner’s feelings?’ ‘Can we change the situation?’
- Beliefs
Your beliefs are important to you, and no one in your life should try to change your religion or beliefs. While your partner doesn’t have to believe in the same things as you, they should respect your values.
- Dreams
You both should be one another’s constant support and cheerleader. It is normal to have different dreams so you both should motivate each other to achieve them. You man should celebrate your success and dreams, and so do you.
