Relationships are made on stronger connect and bonds however their foundations are laid on three important virtues that hold the most prevalence in a relationship – communication, compromise and commitment. Finding a perfect balance between all three can be tricky but finding your way through it is what is most important. Here’s a lowdown on the three c’s in a relationship that you need to focus on.
1. Communication
Communicating efficiently will avoid or solve half the issues in your relationship. Clearer communication can mend the differences and give you clarity about your partner, and the relationship. Communication is not just verbal, it's also non-verbal as we all know actions speak volumes. Working on your bit can only strengthen your relationship.
2. Compromise
Two people make a relationship and it is two people’s contribution that builds the relationship stronger and holds the roots firmly to the ground. There are times when you and your significant other may not agree on the same things and that’s when you may have to find the middle ground. Compromising doesn’t always mean you are sacrificing your independence or freedom, it just means, at times, it's okay to take a backseat and lett the situation take precedence over everything.
3. Commitment
Standing strong through thick and thin is not just something that’s said for effect at weddings – it has a deeper place in both the partners’ lives. It means putting each other and the relationship first when it comes to managing difficult times and coming out of it victorious, and also giving each other the required time and space to grow, both individually and as a couple, while making your bond more enriching and fulfilling.
So, are you working on your 3 c’s yet?
