The Relationship Reminder Each (Partnered) Zodiac Needs This November
When you love someone, you should be ready and willing to compromise with them. You should care more about settling the issue than being right or proving your point. Your discussions should strengthen the relationship, not weaken it.
When you love someone, you should feel comfortable opening up to them about how you’ve been feeling. Hiding your concerns and complaints to keep the peace is actually going to make your relationship more fragile in the long-run. It’s better to be transparent, to have mature meaningful conversations, and to put your thoughts out in the open.
When you love someone, you should take their emotions seriously. Don’t brush off what they’re saying because you disagree, because you assume that they’ll get over it and are making a big deal out of nothing. Their feelings are valid, and you should recognize that.
When you love someone, you shouldn’t lower your standards to accommodate them. Even though you care about them, that doesn’t mean they get to do whatever the hell they want. If they’re treating you poorly, stand up to them. Put your foot down. And leave if you need to leave.
When you love someone, don’t pressure them to change. Don’t expect them to turn into a totally different person after you get married or have children. If you don’t like who they currently are, then you shouldn’t be with them. It’s not fair to them, or to you.
When you love someone, you should be growing alongside them. You don’t want things to remain exactly the same forever. You want to develop and grow. They might not be exactly the same as they were when you first met, but that’s okay as long as you’re moving in the same direction. As long as your paths still make sense together.
When you love someone, you should stick up for them. You should be on their side. You should be their partner, their teammate, their supporter in every sense of the word. Don’t leave them to suffer alone. Be there for them when they need you the most.
When you love someone, don’t take them for granted. Thank them when they do sweet little things for you, whether that’s washing the dishes or letting you have the last slice of pizza. Outwardly show your appreciation so they understand how much you care. So that they know their hard work is recognized.
When you love someone, you should show interest in their interests. You should be present when they’re speaking. You should really hear what they have to say instead of nodding along and daydreaming. Give them the respect that they always give you.
When you love someone, you should give them the full story. Don’t tell little white lies in order to make yourself look better or avoid additional drama. Put everything on the table because if they catch you in even the smallest, silliest lie, it’s going to erode the relationship.
When you love someone, you should put effort into showing them how much you care. Don’t get lazy and start slacking after you’ve been together for a while. Don’t assume they already know how you feel. You still need to say the words. You need to remind them that your feelings haven’t changed and they’re still worth the effort.
When you love someone, you’re comfortable acting weird around them. You don’t have to play pretend in order to impress them. You can be the most authentic version of yourself because you trust that they are never going to judge the real you.
