wat is the best way to maintain a relationship?

whatever your personality is, whatever your beliefs are, whatever your nationality is communication is the best way to maintain a relationship.... no matter what kind of relationship it is, it can be a parent to a child, a boss to a worker, a wife to a husband, a teacher to a pupil, open communications is the way to maintain a healthy relationship.

Freedom and individuality is essential. But not as essential as trust and honesty. You have to be fully open if you want another person to commit to you also. I don't believe in keeping any secrets from each other. Sure there are times when you can't talk about things, but it's not wrong to let your partner know that you have something that you don't want to tell them yet because you're not ready. If you have trust then they will understand and they know you will tell them when the time is right... But ya, trust is essential... There's nowhere to go with someone if you can't trust them.

The best way to maintain relationship is respect each other and have constant communication with each other.

Yeah i think it could work but really depends on the other person if you really know how to handle them. For me, i am also thinking of ways to maintain a good relationship with my husband, so far with our two years of marriage we have become more closer to each other and the marriage is getting strong, that is because we have two kids to nurture and we help each other. Sometimes we go out of the house to stroll in the park or ride the motorbike and stroll in the city at nights. But basically its all about trust, respect and trust for each other thats how you maintain and make the relationship grow.

Being trustworthy and keeping the lines of communication always open. Always add some spice and surprises to keep the relationship fresh. Always say i love you and mean it! Never think of the persons negative attitude it, and lastly never nourish doubt feelings =D

I want to share some tips to you: 1. Be realistic - don't try to turn or mold your partner into something he is not. Give your partner a break, beside if you really love him you will accept him as he is. 2. Always talk thing out - Don't make assuptions about each other's feelings. Learn to express yourself better so that your partner will know and understand what you are angry,hurt or happy about. Coz when you stop talking that will be the start of an end to your relationship. 3. Do stuff together - make an effort to do things together like activity partner. By this you can spend time to each other and you learn more of each other's attitude. 4. Meet half way - there's got to be a give and take relationship. 5. show your love - do something or buy something especial for your partner. So your partner will know that you can still be romantic and loving despite of having been together for a long time. It is wonderful to show someone that he/she is special and you care for him/her. Remember, a little deeds of thoughtfulness means a lot. 6. Respect each other - stop making jokes on one's disability or weakness. If your partner has inferiority or insecurity about something don't be to pushy or make him feel worse. Love is about respecting each others feelings and being sensitive to each other at all times. 7. Bury the past - stop being a historian or bringing up the past. Do not bring up the happy things about your ex-s, that will make your partner jealous or unhappy. 8. Sit on jealousy - all of us go thru the spell of insecurity in the beginning of the relationship, but don't translate it to jealousy. If you gonna go through your partner's privacy like his cell messeges or e-mails or letters or evesdropping on conversations, you know something is wrong with you. Jealousy is like a poison that slowly kills the love and ends the relationship. If you love your partner you will trust him/her. 9. Be honest - we always say that honesty is the best policy. Its the expression of one's feelings in a clearer manner without jopardizing other's feelings. A relationship without honesty is nothing. 10. Have a word of honor - keep your commitment to each other. Don't make promises you can't keep. It really feels terrible when someone promises you to take you somewhere or to give you something then cancells it or don't show face. If your partner starts to feel that he/she is not important to you, it might be a way to lose him/her.
