Being too long with our partners, after 10 or more years of marriage, we see more of their faults their some things that exite us. This weekend I saw, some interesting traits of my husband (17 years relationship= 14 years lover + 3 years husband) We needed to make some short term decision on the trip ... we discussed and decided .. it felt so good , he sat and talked with me for long hours .. all i had to do was participate without argument and complain .. We discussed and talked about so many things .. and today when i am at work .. i received 2 messages of "I Miss You" from him Well ... maybe we should give our partner chance to show some of their good side rather than waiting to find fault and fights with them .. cheers

This is totally true, I am in a relationship with someone for nearly four years and one day I remember that he made me real angry and I was jotting down all his faulty attitudes and I was comparing that with his positive ones and then he told me that there are many those wonderful traits that I didnot jot down like taking me to visit new places and stopping in the middle of the road just to let me take a picture, and so on, this is indeed wonderful to me and sometimes when we are angry or discouraged we only see the faults and we miss those wonderful moments and attitudes he have.

yes very tru ..sometimes we just close our eyes for all the woderful partner they have been .. we drove 16 hours to a place just because i wanted to do some business and needed to be there .. then stayed at his friends place 1 night, drove back 16 hours the next day .. who is willing to do that other than our other half

Yes it is totally correct.we should think always positive then only relationship should stay forever .As a humans every one do fault dont try to find faults in any one and try to find good in them then only relationship maintained. Good luck
