Kate saw sense, and has resolved to give up drinking and partying in a bid to win her man back. Kate has proved that compromises are a big part of any relationship. If you are open-minded and willing to make a change, you could strengthen your relationship.
According to researchers, if a relationship is going well, there is a far greater likelihood that an individual will be more satisfied with life and productive at work. It is not be possible to change overnight. A couple should try and accept each other the way they are. If you quit being stubborn, the relationship grows stronger. Some individuals change because they prioritise their relationship above all else.
Non-negotiable differences
If answers to these are unknown or flexible, they are non-negotiable factors in a relationship.
Children: Do you want them, and how many? Who will raise the children, and will they be raised with a religious affiliation?
Finances: Who will be the breadwinner? What will the money be spent on? Who will control the finances?
In-laws: Will the in-laws live with you? Will they help raise the kids? How often will you visit them? To what extent are you willing to take advice from them?
Spirituality/ Religion: Are you actively observing a religion? Do you need me to convert to your religion? What religious values will you instill in the kids, and will you be willing to raise the kids with mixed beliefs?Points to follow to build strong relationship
Don't be selfish: If a change won't make much difference to your life, make it.
Don't judge: When you blame your partner, and ignore your flaws, the gap widens.
Ask for forgiveness: If you are at fault, don't be ashamed to say sorry.
Look for compromise: Talking it out and arriving at a solution will solve many problems.
Resolve to be respectful: If you respect your partner's opinion, he/she will return the favour.
Accept your differences: It's unrealistic to think you will be alike, ever.
