Be realistic. Every relationship has disagreements and days when staying isnt the easiest choice. But what makes a relationship healthy is choosing to resolve those problems and push through the hard days, instead of just letting issues and resentment fester. Review your expectations. Do you see your partner as a person, with both winning qualities and flaws, or as someone you expect to be perfect? If your expectations are so astronomical that no one could live up to them 100% of the time, youre setting up your relationship for failure. Accept that conflict happens. If you expect to be in a long-term relationship, youre bound to have the occasional disagreement. Remember that one argument isnt the end of everything, and theres no person on earth that youd agree with all the time. Always ask yourself whether youre better off in the relationship than out of it. If you dont think youre better off in the relationship, then you probably should have a serious discussion with your partner. In a loving relationship, this question almost always gets a simple Yes.
