Embracing a Brand New Year Together with Fireworks

With the increased technological advancement each year, people have become dependent on Internet Access and online entertainment. Moreover, social media has impacted the way we live our lives and how we interact with each other. Our perception of ourselves has distorted throughout the years, and the amount of information we have at our fingertips has made us jaded and indifferent to the outside world. With all of these problems accumulated, it is tough to maintain a healthy and happy romantic relationship.

Instant access to dating apps has not only created this gap in how we relate to one another, but it has also encouraged a discrepancy within our daily lives. We don’t pursue; we leave it be, and more so than ever, the percentage of people getting a divorce has increased. Anyone could argue that it might be due to having a multitude of choices set before you and never knowing what to do with it. Everyone makes mistakes. That is true, however being able to give and share in a relationship consistently is something desired by anyone, yet never done.

How do you fight this constant push and pull between what you want and what you need? What is wrong and right? Let’s start by tackling one of the main issues of a healthy relationship in 2020.

Commitment issues

When you enter a relationship, you expect the other person to give you their all, but do you do the same in return? No relationship is just about you. You have to admit that to yourself before moving on. Understanding that it’s not just you, but it’s us, we, ours. If you stray too far from that, you may find out that you have commitment issues. Where does this come from? Self-doubt, pain, hurt, and even fear.

Some people fear being hurt so much that they would rather leave than try harder to change themselves for the better and fight for the person they love. Others may even doubt being enough for the person they love, so they would rather remove themselves from the equation before stepping forward and trying to commit. How do you get rid of all that baggage? You don’t. As mentioned above, it’s not just you in this relationship. Talk it out, communicate your fears to your partner, and help them understand where you’re coming from. If they are ready to take this step with you, they will tell you, and you can try to move past all the hurt and leave it behind.

Self-Esteem Issues

Specified before, any problems that stem from the self, whether it’s self-doubt or self-hate, can arise other issues on the surface of a relationship. But how do you deal with that? By seeking professional help. If you’ve been stuck in a rut for a longer time, maybe it’s time to make a call to a specialist that can help you uncover the issues hidden within. Most importantly, don’t hesitate to seek help from anyone. There are online help services that can talk you through anything you may be battling with, if you’re worried about going to a clinic.

While it’s never too late to change and seek help, your partner may not be around forever. Try to make the plunge to seek help as soon as you notice something stirring from inside. Mental health is essential in a relationship, and you need to prioritize yourself before you commit to anyone.

Signs of Mistreatment

One of the most detrimental parts of a relationship is how you treat each other. When one side of a relationship takes too much and never gives anything in return, it can lead to other types of abuse. Whether it’s physical or emotional, don’t let anyone deteriorate your self-worth by staying with them. Learn to recognize signs of mistreatment by valuing yourself.

When one party of the relationship displays signs of physical or emotional abuse, the best thing you can do is to distance yourself and leave. No one should make you feel any less than you deserve. Everyone is capable of change and love; however, putting yourself in a situation where one does not know when to stop is never favorable. Seek professional help if you find yourself in an environment just like this.

How do you maintain a healthy and happy relationship?

The foundation of any strong relationship relies on understanding one another and respecting each other. Here are a few suggestions to keep your current relationship happy and healthy:

  • Communication. Never hesitate to communicate your opinions to one another and open up about things that bother you.
  • Respect. Just because you enjoy X & Y does not mean that your partner needs to enjoy it, too. Allow them space & let them form their own opinions.
  • Compromise. You’re going to have bad days, and when you do, learn to compromise with one another. If your partner is feeling down, change your plans to accommodate them, and expect the same in return when it happens to you. No relationship is a one-way street.
  • Recreation. Sometimes the best way to show someone you love them is to make time for them. Watch a movie together, go on a date, and find something that you can both enjoy. These are always the memories we treasure the most when years pass us by.

Essentials

The critical aspect of any relationship is constant change and evolution. The tighter we hold onto anything, the more it slips away. When you let yourself flow with time and adapting to the situations as they come, you get stronger and are able to appreciate the things that truly matter: a word, a touch, a gesture. The little moments are what make up for all the stress and hurt we deal with on a daily basis. Make them for your loved one and treat them the way you would like to be treated: with respect. And at the end of the day, if you have issues, don’t hesitate to communicate them. Speak up so that you can fix whatever there is to be fixed.
