A good loving relationship is the biggest privilege in life. To have a healthy relationship with a person who loves you unconditionally is amazing - but it is important to know that it is not effortless. 


Maintaining a relationship is hard work and many people often fail at this during their lives. To partner with another person and share your life with them is a big commitment - and to do this successfully for decades of your life is a challenge. 


If you are in a relationship or you are looking to be in one soon - here are some of the important tips that will help you to maintain a strong relationship this year. 



Always communicate 


One of the first signs of relationship trouble is a lack of communication between both parties. It is more important than you think to communicate with your other half - and you must always be honest with them. Don’t hide things from your partner because this is a sure fire way to ruin your relationship. Talk about your hopes and dreams, your fears and doubts, share everything together and open up to them. Your partner should be the person you trust with everything, and if you don’t, this is a sign it’s not meant to be. 



Be affectionate 


Affection is something that is underrated in long term relationships. Of course, sex is something that you likely still partake in together - but other forms of affection such as holding hands, a kiss on the cheek, or a random hug are what makes a good relationship. Show your partner how much you love them every single day with these small signs of affection and they will likely return this to you. Physical connection is one of the best parts of a relationship and showing affection each day is a great way to strengthen your bond. 



Appreciate the small things 


Did your spouse make you a cup of coffee this morning? Did they wake up early to feed the dogs while you stayed in bed? Did they wash up after dinner? All of these small things deserve appreciation. Whenever you or your partner do small things for eachother or for the household - they should be appreciated and acknowledged. A common issue with marriages is where one of the partners feels unappreciated and neglected - and this is often the root. If your partner goes out of their way to make your life or your home better, tell them how grateful you are and they will return the favour and feel valued. 



Support each other's goals 


It is so important as a partner to support the dreams of the person you love. Your partner is the person closest to you and you should want them to be happy. This could mean a change in career, a move elsewhere, or a delve into a creative pursuit. Whatever your partner wants to achieve - you should be there holding their hand and egging them on. The best relationships are the ones where the couple supports each other and acts as their cheerleader. You should be the biggest fan of your partner and their biggest advocate.
