Are you finding results by implementing these changes in your relationship? I'd expect a resounding YES, but if a NO is still coming out of your mouth or in your thoughts, let's keep working and we'll achieve it!
To work on building a healthy and, above all, happy relationship, we must put the aforementioned recommendations into practice. Relationships are fraught with nuances; conflicts often arise at different levels, but the important thing is to address them and resolve them.
Couples don't win by not having conflicts. The secret to a couple is how they resolve problems, since the secret is "fighting fair." We must always attack the problem, not the person.
Here, we can use the technique of nonviolent communication. When we argue, we use phrases that reflect how we feel. We don't place blame or responsibility on our partner. For example, let's say, "I feel that..." instead of accusing the other and generalizing by saying, "You always do the same thing..." This way, the argument stops being a constant attack and allows us to listen, validate, and understand each other.
I believe we can't put aside gratitude and admiration. We should never, ever take for granted everything our partner does for us, even if we get used to the best. We always have to try to express and say simple things like: "Thank you for what you did for me," "I love that you make me breakfast, you do it very well." Phrases like these that express gratitude and admiration for our partners allow us to create and maintain a loving environment of mutual appreciation.
