Many people think that if the sex is good, the rest of the relationship will be good. Really?
There is often an opinion that the most important thing in a relationship is the intimate act. Men are mainly meant here. But building a harmonious relationship requires much more than just pleasure in bed.
Believe it or not, three things are more important to men:
1. Understanding
As we have already said, the intimate act is important because it is also a special part of the partner relationship. But when you understand how your partner feels, your relationship is on a higher level.
If you want to gain his trust, you need to be able to listen to what he is telling you. If you are not careful, your relationship will be superficial. True intimacy occurs when you recognize the feelings and mood of the person next to you and know how to react to them correctly.
2. Acceptance
Sometimes, instead of looking to change something in the other person, try to accept it. Ask yourself, are you ideal? You didn't! If someone constantly asked you for something, how would you feel? It's hard to build a healthy relationship if you're constantly criticizing something.
It's normal to want to build the best relationship possible, but first you have to accept it and your partner for who they are. Communication is important in a good relationship. Talk honestly and calmly about what you could and should do to make the relationship work.
3. Honesty
A long-lasting and healthy relationship can only be built on honesty. It's hard to hold onto something if it's built on a lie. Be willing to take responsibility for your words and actions. Gain your partner's respect.
Strengthen your relationship on these principles, as they are a good basis for a great partnership, woven from love and understanding.
