I've never been into any relationship before, but I know some things right about relationship. Nigerians would say' "respect is reciprocal." Everyone deserves a measure of respect. In relationship, no one is meant to be this slave neither is anyone the master.

I've seen some families where the two partners quarrel but settles it without any third party intervention. Relationship becomes very interesting when the two parties respect each other's opinion.

The man/husband should not feel more important because he's taking most responsibility in the relationship/family, the lady/wife should not also feel better than her partner. Everything has to be reciprocated.

It is normal for two lovers to offend each other, but it is best for them to settle in love. "Soft word turns away anger, and bitterness." If love is the foundation of any relationship, there would be no reason for either party to be afraid. There is no fear in love, love is not harsh but love is calm. Sounding harsh makes your spouse feel inferior.

There is no superior, neither is there an inferior in relationship. Both lovers are equal. Don't sound rude to your partner. When your partner offends you, Use soft words to make peace. I believe this will help you build a good relationship.
