We all have our set ways – the way we think, how we frame our lives and so on. Even though we think that we might be very flexible, there’s a big possibility that we’re not as fluid as we may like to think. And that’s definitely not a good thing because if we’re not allowing our partners or future partners to influence us to better ourselves.
It’s very important to know yourself, learn all about your faults and accept them all. Because if you don’t do these things, it will make it harder for you to accept other people. To find love, you need to be able to accept others for their good and bad, and perhaps not be so stubborn. Here are some of the ways you’re living that might make it hard for you to find the right love.
You can never be wrong
Seriously, you’re human and chances are you’re going to be wrong a lot more times than you would care to admit. Being in a relationship means compromising and admitting your mistakes. You cannot always win the arguments and you cannot always be right. If you refuse to budge, chances are your relationship won’t flourish.
You only stick to what you know
Being in a relationship sometimes mean you have to try new things. You may have a lot of things in common with your partner, perhaps that’s the reason why you two got together in the first place but there is bound to be something that he’s into that you’ve never dabbled at before. So, keep an open mind and try it out with him because he will most definitely appreciate it. Plus it will benefit your relationship in ways you couldn’t imagine.
You can’t seem to understand that it’s a partnership
You’ve got to learn how to give in and compromise. Relationships aren’t all about the men pleasing the women. It can’t always be dinner with your family and never his or chick flicks and never his action movies. You cannot have it your way all the time, so cut this attitude out and give in a little more.
You won’t accept fault
It cannot and won’t be always them and never you. Honestly, would you rather be all by yourself than admit that you were wrong. Stop that stubborn attitude and realise that perhaps sometimes it IS you and not them.
You expect him to be everything on your “checklist”
No one is perfect. Not even you, believe it or not. You cannot expect your partner to be somebody you have envisioned them to be. Instead, accept them for all that they are and enjoy the connection, which you two intimately share. Don’t waste time on moulding him to be the person you want him to be.
