Practical Advice for a Healthy Relationship
If reading our favorite Romances or binge-watching romantic comedies on Netflix has taught us anything, it's that relationships are hard work.
And yet we often jump right in, not knowing how to foster a healthy relationship with another person.
Whether you are dating, engaged, married, or just looking, relationships take a lot of time and effort.
What does a healthy relationship look like?
A healthy relationship will often feel like you are two parts of one team. Therefore, when an issue arises, you can openly communicate with each other without retaliation from your partner.
Every healthy relationship will have the following:
- Trust – This is arguably the most important aspect of a healthy relationship. You need trust in each other to build a strong foundation for your relationship. Without faith, being emotionally vulnerable with each other can leave you open to being hurt.
- Communication – You need to communicate openly and honestly with each other. No one is a mind reader. There needs to be open communication where you feel safe to be vulnerable with your partner.
- Respect – Attraction and overall interest are important, but they mean nothing if there is no mutual respect. Respect creates a stronger bond between two people because they know that deep down, the other person has their back and understands them. You can't have a healthy relationship when you are belittling your partner or invalidating them.
Advice on Healthy Relationships
Advice #1: You are not responsible for your partners' happiness and vice versa. If your partner seems to look to you to act a certain way or do things to make them happy, that is a red flag. We are in charge of our own happiness, and it is our own responsibility to accept how we feel and behave. It's ok to do acts of kindness that we know will bring a smile to our partners' face but in no terms should anyone change who they are or what they are doing to please someone else.
Advice #2: Figure out your love language and communicate it to your partner. Your love language is the way you experience love. For instance, someone might feel loved when their partner does something for them without being told or touching them lovingly outside of sexual pleasure. Dr. Gary Chapman, the author of The 5 Love languages, explains the 5 most common ways we express love and receive it: Words of Affirmation, Acts of Service, Receiving Gifts, Quality Time, and Physical Touch.
Advice #3: Be Flexible. Relationships take comprise. You both can't get your way 100% of the time. So there needs to be a degree of flexibility between you. Sit down and discuss what matters most to each other and what can be prioritized. If one partner is always compromising, the relationship will become stressed, and cracks will start to form, creating a toxic environment over time.

It gladdens my heart to be out here to say a word of thank you to Dr Isikolo. His page (https://isikolo-temple.com)
I never thought I would be able to see my marriage work again despite the fact that everything had already been working against me, Dr Isikolo came to my rescue. I had a problem in my home which made my husband left and I was already pregnant and it became difficult for me to cope without him in my life. His family supported me all along but no one could help reunite us back except Dr Isikolo who responded at the time I needed help the most. He got the problem fixed and my husband returned back home to me just after 48 hours because he was still living in the same city with me. It quite amazing when you find help where you least thought you can get help. Once again thank you Dr Isikolo for all you do to help people in dire need of assistance. Email him via: isikolosolutionhome@gmail.com or WhatsApp him on +2348133261196

Hi everyone I am Emily Naomi wanna give a big thanks to this wonderful psychic for bringing my husband back to me.. I never really believed in magic spells or anything spiritual but a trusted friend opened my eyes to the truth about life. My marriage was heading to divorce a few months ago. I was so confused and devastated with no clue or help on how to prevent it, till I was introduced to this psychic Priest Ray that did a love spell and broke every spiritual distraction from my marriage. A day later my husband started showing me love and care even better than it used to be, he’s ready to talk things through and find ways for us to stay happy. It’s such a miracle that my marriage can be saved so quickly without stress. You can also contact him for help by email psychicspellshrine@gmail.com or WhatsApp: +12133525735 and you can also visit his website: https://psychicspellshrine.wixsite.com/my-site

I just want to say Thank You to everyone who supported me through the years. My name is Manuel Franco, New Berlin, Wisconsin. My story of how I won the Powerball lottery of $768.4M is a bit of a tale. I have been playing Powerball tickets for 6 years now since I turned 18. I bought my first ticket on my 18 birthday. I was feeling very lucky that day because I had contacted Dr. Odunga Michael to help me with the winning Powerball numbers. I really had that great great feeling that I looked at the camera wanting to wink at it. I only did a tiny part of it and trusted him. He gave me the numbers after I played a couple other tickets along with it for $10. I checked my ticket after the winnings came online and saw the numbers were correct including the Power play. I screamed for about 10 minutes because it felt like a dream. I had won $768.4M. You can check my winning testimony with the lottery officials just with my name search. Thank you Dr Odunga. Well, his email is odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and you can also call or Whats-app him at +2348167159012 so you guys can contact him
