10 Ways to Be More Understanding in a Relationship
No one is perfect
Men and women want to be loved. We all want to feel that our partner is devoted to us and loves us for exactly who we are. There is nothing wrong with showing affection to your partner and expressing your love for them. But, sometimes this may be inappropriate. This is because women are more than capable of loving. They are able to show their love for their partner in different ways. Men are not as complex in their emotions. In a relationship, the expectations are different in different relationships. Some couples prefer to keep their romance secret. There are a lot of people out there that expect that the couple who is in a relationship will not get any attention or affection in front of other people. And this is not true at all.
Support your partner
Love and appreciation Small gestures can go a long way. Communicate with each other Don’t hold things in. Find ways to be real with each other and let it all out. Learn to talk about your feelings. Respect your partner It doesn’t matter how much money you have, whether you’re smart or beautiful or whatever the case may be – but you should be able to respect your partner and know how to treat them. Don’t use sex as a tool It’s not about sexual acts. Sex is a physical act between two people, and it is a very powerful human experience. But before you use sex as a weapon, it is important to understand what good sex is and not use it to act out your anger or fear.
Communicate without judgment

Respect your partner
Send text messages that your partner enjoys receiving. This could mean that they need to eat a yummy meal, play a new game with you or go for a drive with you. We know that texts are common to all relationships, but if they are always coming from your partner, it makes them feel cared for, loved, and connected to you. Let your partner feel your appreciation for them. The past couple of years have been intense. You’ve shared emotions with your partner, emotions that you could never share with others. This could mean that you have shared the deepest parts of your heart, and for that, your partner deserves your heartfelt gratitude. If you can write “I appreciate you” on a post-it note, but then don’t actually go find your partner, they will feel your appreciation on their behalf.
Don't be selfish
It's important to remember that every time you want something and your partner wants the same, you are in fact being selfish. If you want the car and your partner doesn't really need it, it may be better for you to give in and buy the car for yourself and save up for something else that will make them happy. Engage in positive dialogue If there's a fight, it is better to engage in a positive dialogue than to air your grievances and allow bitterness to get the better of you. Maintain intimacy It is not as easy as it sounds because once your partner has begun to see you in the light of a "trophy wife," it is easy to start keeping your distance and no longer have the same enthusiasm to be intimate. A simple thing to do is to ensure that you are on the same page with your partner.
