As summer comes to its unofficial close, it's time to move back to reality. If you were having relationship problems before, you might have made concessions during the summer months, but now that reality is upon us, the intensity of your struggles moves onward.
It's time to dedicate yourself to understanding what the underlying problems are in your relationship, and how to identify solutions to those problems. Better yet, you come up with the problems, and I'll help with the solutions!
Allow yourself some reflection time to really identify what problems you are having and what you are really expecting out of your relationship. Compare your expectations to your reality and analyze what you find. Is your partner meeting your expectations?
Chances are, the answer is no. But the next question becomes "Why"? It is quite possible, and very probable, that they don't know what you expect of them. How can they? Have you told them?
Complasency can take over a relationship after the courtship, and we tend to forget what we knew about our partner, and failed to evolve with them.
You have to update each other on what your likes and dislikes are, what your goals are, and what you expect from your partner and your relationship. Spending some time together and writing these down, and then discussing them is a great way to promote meaningful conversation.
Imporving your communication can help turn your relationship around. You have to work at understanding each other to make your relationship grow.
I found a great community that welcomes people like you and I. It is an entire social community dedicated to relationship success. It is a place where you can share your struggles and offer advice to other members. It is also a place where you can have experts at your hands, or just 1 click away. And best of all, it's FREE!
Now, I learned of this site when they invited me to be an expert on the advice side of the site. I encourage you to join the FREE community and follow my articles and comments while you're their.
The site is Love Detour, and I hope you'll join me and thousands of others just like us. It is unique in that it is a member site, but its free and while you have access to other members's advice and opinions, there is also an "Expert" division which you can also utilize for the obtaining the answers and support you need.
