Be a consultant of Your Relationship

When one gets into a relationship with a person, the goal is more often to make that relationship as long as possible. To many, the aim might be to see themselves in a state when all of them know each other so well that they would think almost the same.

However, the current rate of divorce and separation shows that these relationships do not end up in happiness whether the two had intended to get married or not. As a result many find themselves in depression, stress and end up having diseases triggered by such failed relationship.

To make your relationship last consider the following:

• Be the consultant in your affairs: Never allow some one define for you what you should do to have a lasting relationship. Both of you discuss and become your own consultants in your relationship. Forget the crap about relationship counselors-you are best counselors of your relationship.
• Invest in each other: Investing in a relationship brings more dividends than any other therapy. When you get into a relationship, you must begin to know what raw materials are needed to make it a success. Is it time together, is it joint ventures, is it intimacy. Invest and invest.
• Bring adventure: Most relationships fail due to lack of any thing new. A relationship is not an end by itself. You get to bore one another without anything new. Aim to bring fun into your relationship. Tell stories, visit places, discuss news, play with your pets in an afternoon-aim is to break the monotony.
