Relationship Myths - Part One

 
I am about to blow the whistle on 10 of the most common but dangerous relationship myths.
 
MYTH #1: A GREAT RELATIONSHIP DEPENDS ON A GREAT MEETING OF THE MINDS No possible. Why? Nobody is capble of seeing things through your partner's eyes because you are two entirely different people. You are genetically, physiologically, psychologically and historically different.
 
Recognize that a relationship is far more enjoyable when you're with someone who enriches your life, not simply reflects it. Appreciate your differences.
 
MYTH #2: A GREAT RELATIONSHIP REQUIRES A GREAT ROMANCE However don't kid yourself and expect an unrealistic Hollywood fairytale. The truth is that in the real world, being in love is not like falling in love.
 
Falling in love is only the first stage of love. It's impossible to remain in that stage. A mature relationship will shift from dizzying infatuation to a deeper, more secure love.
 
However in saying that - for long term relationships romance keeps the partnership alive or it will over time turn into just being flat mates and that is a different danger all together.
 
MYTH #3: A GREAT RELATIONSHIP REQUIRES GREAT PROBLEM-SOLVING There are things that you and your partner disagree about and will continue to disagree about. Why can't you once and for all resolve these issues? Because in order to do so, one of you would have to sacrifice your values and beliefs.
 
You can simply agree to disagree and reach "emotional closure" even though you haven't reached closure on the issue.
 
MYTH #4: A GREAT RELATIONSHIP REQUIRES COMMON INTERESTS THAT BOND YOU TOGETHER FOREVER There is nothing wrong with your relationship if you don't share common interests and activities.
 
If you and your partner are forcing yourselves to engage in common activities but the results are stress, tension and conflict, don't do it!
 
MYTH #5: A GREAT RELATIONSHIP IS A PEACEFUL ONE Don't be afraid to argue because you think it's a sign of weakness or relationship breakdown. Even the healthiest couples argue.
 
Instead of worrying about how many times you argue, worry about how you argue. Here are some guidelines:
 
Don't abandon the issue and attack the worth of your partner during an argument. That is not fair fighting.
 
Don't pursue a take-no-prisoners approach in your arguments.
 
Don't avoid achieving emotional closure at the end of an argument.
 
All the best folks
