Healthy relationships don't happen overnight, like Hollywood and the media would like you to believe. Just because you're in love and in a relationship, it doesn't mean you can read your partner's mind or fulfill all of your partner's needs. A healthy relationship is based on respect, listening, trust and many other things. A relationship takes time and effort to grow.
Remember to spend quality time together. This means talking, going for a walk, listening to each other, getting to know each other. The more you do this, the more things work out or are easier.
As guys, we are often told by people and society to not talk about our feelings, and yet our partners sometimes tell us that they want us to talk about feelings. The key here is to start off slow. Find times when both of you feel safe. Think about whether you want to set rules for talking. Never include violence in your conversations or arguments. Guys are often shown in movies hitting women when they are mad or hear something they don't want to. Don't do that — it will get you in trouble with the law and hurt your partner. You may need time for yourself — sometimes a walk helps. Do what you need to do, but don't hurt your partner or yourself. Remember, you care about this person and yourself. Make sure your actions show that as well as your words.
Sometimes relationships can be difficult and they need to be ended. It's okay to break up or end the relationship. When someone stays in a relationship longer than they need to, it can become unhealthy and people can become bitter and angry. Talk to a friend or counselor and see if they can help you.
Remember though, that through the hard stuff, relationships can be a lot of fun and joy. It's great to have someone to love who loves you back!
