I follow few valuable doctrines in life :-
1) We are all human and we all have good days and bad days. We can only give so much and sometimes need to be supported ourselves.
2) I always try & put someone else's interests ahead of my own. There is compromise and sacrifice in every relationship.
3) Communication is the backbone of any relationship in terms of keeping both partners feeling heard and understood. Nobody can read anybody's mind. Being able to openly and honestly communicate with the person you're committed to can make or break your relationship.
4) Things change and life throws curveballs at us -- nobody can be expected to have it all figured out, but giving it a try is a good start.
5) No matter how well two people get along, odds are one will not like every single little. thing. about the other person. There may be small quirks that you've got to accept (and maybe ignore). If you get annoyed by everything, it will cause unnecessary tension in the relationship.
6) It's important to note that in a healthy relationship, both partners will motivate each other to become the best versions of themselves -- this is not the same as trying to change someone's nature.Happiness comes from the ability to be honest, and the ability to be honest comes from being able to open up to someone without being judged.
7) Right now, we are a whole complete person. If one thinks you need to be in a relationship in order to be "complete," then you will always be looking for something you can never find. True fulfillment and satisfaction comes from within, and you cannot fully, effectively give yourself to someone until you've found it. You don't need someone to complete you, only someone to accept you completely.
8) Your ex is no longer a factor.Until you are completely over your ex and can give your time and attention to someone new, it is better not to commit.
9) If you're constantly searching for a relationship out of loneliness you will find yourself with the first person who comes along that is interested in you. We all need to have the dignity and self-respect to only commit ourselves to those who deserve it, and the only way to be able to wait for that is to be happy before they come along.
