The entire life we live has a number of relationships that help us sail through life easily. These relationships take a number of forms and include a number of people, these people come in various forms, some as friends, some as cousins and friends. The relationship with immediate relatives, cousins and parents do not tend to falter that easily. This is a part of human psychology that I have found very strange. If you cannot manage to share a roof with a person, no matter how closely that person is related to you, you just can’t, people still think they are managing!

Now moving onto relationships that include people who are not immediate relatives and the likes, in that case, people tend to be a little choosy and tend to give up really easily. I believe these are the relationships that really mater and tend to help one through the tough stages of life. A relationship that helps you live a better life, that helps you smile should never be thrown away, these relationships and these people are those that are responsible for major portions of success and achievements that a person receives. I thus request all you out there not to take these relationships for granted and instead make an effort to make them work. Instead of giving up easily make an attempt to resolve issues by simply discussing your problems and coming onto a common consensus. Some steps to help yu through this:

1. Talk-it always helps, it is the best way you can tell someone what you want.
2. Do not judge- do not judge your spouse or your partner, they have their own set of beliefs problems and issues to face, don’t make yours an additional burden to them, ask them what they want, what is going wrong and sort it.
3. Give space- giving space is very important in any relationship. A partner that does not have space tends to feel suffocated and they lose interest in the relationship all together. This means that the relationship falls apart easily.
4. Understand- I is important to understand the other persons viewpoint. Without this is it is not possible to have a peaceful relationship.
5. Forgive-forgive and forget! This is the person you have loved the most, it is not easy. But forgive it makes you feel lighter, and the relationship easier.
