There are a lot of things that can go wrong in a relationship...it's almost depressing how many of them end each day, and sometimes for the dumbest, most avoidable reasons. If you think your relationship may be in danger, or are wondering what went wrong in your recent ex-relationship, take a look at the list I've made here. These are the top 5 "no-no's" of relationships.
1) Being unfaithful (a.k.a. CHEATING). This is the most disgusting and unforgivable offense, in my opinion. Traditionally thought of as happening when a guy can't keep his pants on, more and more women are having trouble having the human decency to be loyal to the ones they love. It's revolting to me when a person is so consumed by the basic animal side that they can't resist going out and doing something stupid. It's very simple: don't cheat on your partner. If you love your partner at all, you love him or her too much to cause that kind of heartache...and trust me, they ALWAYS find out.
2) Being demanding and controlling. Everybody's probably seen at least one comedy movie where a happy-go-lucky guy is assaulted by his ogre of a woman, who can't seem to let go of the leash long enough for him to walk into the kitchen. Sure, silly facial expressions and overemphasized gestures make you laugh, but inside you know there's a part of you that's thinking "I'm so glad that's not ME getting a phone call every 10 minutes asking where I am." Well, don't make your partner that person...if boys and girls can't get along and trust each other, there's not much point in even having a relationship at all. Have a little trust.
3) Lack of regard for your partner's feelings, or emotional support. I know, it's such a cliched expression that I feel silly just using it, but not giving your partner the emotional support he or she needs is a painful and self-esteem damaging thing. When the one you love has a difficult time seeing how much you DO love him or her, it hurts! Most of this can be helped just by listening to your partner...really listening, and responding like a human person rather than a parrot. A little support from the one who loves you isn't too much to ask, so don't be stingy in giving it.
4) Letting fights get out of their role. Whenever two people are stuck together for extended periods of time, even if those people love each other desperately and passionately, there are going to be clashes where one person feels one way and the other a different way...that's life, that's relationships. It can even be healthy to clear the air sometimes, but when you let a fight expand outside the boundary of being helpful, it starts really harming your relationship. Don't just shrug off your partner's concerns, but don't take fights too seriously either. Oh, and a tip for making fights a little less impactful: give in every now and again. ;)
5) Stagnancy in a relationship. It's genuinely sad to me whenever I see or hear of two people who loved each other like crazy just sort of dissipate from lack of any real passion in the relationship. People, never forget what a blessing every second with your partner really is, and help your guy or girl feel that you feel that way in any way you can. Lack of spontanaeity and activity dulls relationships down to grey fogs that eventually just disappear, and this is the saddest waste of two loving hearts there is.
Well now you've been versed in the basic Five Deadly Relationship Sins. Any one of these can really cripple your relationship, and even the person you share it with...so in the name of anything you consider holy, avoid hurting the one you love by keeping these things from ever having a chance to destroy your relationship. With a little bit of trust, care, and decency, your biggest threats can be absolutely nothing.
So before you do something that'll jeopardize your relationship, stop and think. Is it really worth it to hurt your partner and become alone? Have a brain, and have a heart.
