Key Concepts: Relationships, Friendships, Marriage, Good Relationship Principles
What principles make for a good relationship?
For friendship:
- Respect
- Willingness to spend time with that special person
- A good listening ear
- Showing interest in what that person cares about
- Dealing with conflicts in a mature way and as they come up -- not procrastinating when it comes to confronting issues
- Sharing your life together
- Showing that you care
- Helping out when problems arise
- Calling often enough or just being there for that person
- Focusing on what's right with the other person and not what's wrong
For couples add this:
- Complimenting each other every day
- Saying "I love you"often
- Being generous
- Encouraging each others' endeavors -- hobbies, projects, goals
- Having mutually shared goals
- Showing your mate you believe in them as a person and in what they choose to do
There are more principles but if everyone just followed the above, all of our relationships would shine.
In upcoming articles, we will explore some of these principles in more detail.
