12 Ways to Have a Healthy Relationship with Your Boyfriend

Ways to Have a Healthy Relationship with Your Boyfriend

healthy relationship with boyfriend

It’s easy to be in a relationship, yet it’s hard to keep a relationship healthy.

Sometimes, love is not enough to keep a relationship healthy. I’ve heard a lot of people telling me about their unhealthy relationships yet they still love their partners and chose to stay in that situation. I know it is very likely to have feelings of love for someone even if you feel like you’re caged. According to Readers Digest, 57 percent of those in unhappy relationships still find their partner extremely attractive.

But you can’t just have a successful connection between your partner behind those three words and eight letters (I LOVE YOU). It is also important to recognize that “Love” is just one part of a whole because there are other ingredients to make it solid and healthy.

Now, if you’re in a relationship and wondering what it takes to have a healthy relationship, try these key ingredients to make it stronger, happier and long-lasting.

14 Signs Your Partner is Truly in Love with You

Signs Your Partner is Truly in Love with You

partners truly in love

Every individual expresses love differently and while some are good with words, there are just others who don’t have the ability to fully and effectively say what they feel especially when it matters the most.  Such failure to convey emotions can often be a problem, especially in romantic relationships. In fact, it creates doubt and uncertainty that can often weaken the bond between two people in love.

If you’re one of those who are starting to feel uncertain or unsure about whether their partner still loves you or not, this is for you. This article will explore the different expressions of love and the complicated language in which it is spoken.

These are the signs that your partner is truly in love with you:

11 Things Truly Happy Couples Don’t Do on Facebook

Things Truly Happy Couples Don’t Do on Facebook

show on Facebook

While some people are really private when it comes to their love life, there are others who just can’t help but tell the world about everything that’s going on with their relationship: from their recent romantic getaways, screenshots of the last text messages they’ve sent to each other, photos of their sweet and thoughtful anniversary presents, to the long and often grand status updates declaring their promises of eternal love for their partner, etc.

There’s nothing wrong with openly expressing your love for someone and many can agree that it’s such a sweet and romantic gesture to find your name or your photo on the Facebook newsfeed paired with the most thoughtful and sincerest words that anyone has ever written just to impress you.

However, happy couples don’t really need all the attention that most Facebook love birds crave. In fact, people in a strong and healthy relationship do things differently online and pretty much exert all their sincere and genuine efforts privately offline, away from the public eye.

To fully understand what we’re trying to say here, let’s first take a look at some of the things that truly happy couples don’t do on Facebook.

12 Unfamiliar Signs You’re in Love with Someone

Unfamiliar Signs You’re in Love with Someone

signs in love with someone

The truth is, there is no established way of knowing the exact and absolute definition of falling in love. After all, we’re talking about something that comes in the most enigmatic and unpredictable form that it’s impossible to fully figure out what it really is and how it can change someone’s life for good.

In addition, while most people can tell if they’ve finally fallen in love, some aren’t that lucky to be in the most obvious and less confusing circumstances. Love being both mysterious and impulsive, can sometimes be unrecognizable, failing to give out the usually obvious hints that reveal one’s romantic attraction towards another person. The question is, how would you know if you’re already caught in the love spell? Is it really possible to not know that you’re actually falling in love?

To answer these questions, here’s a list of unfamiliar signs that you’re in love with someone.

10 Inspiring Tips for a Successful Long Distance Relationship

Inspiring Tips for a Successful Long Distance Relationship

in a long distance relationship

The strongest of relationships are often built on three things: love, trust and respect. If you think about it, it’s a simple formula. Anyone willing enough to abide by their “unwritten rules” is on their way to finding an honest, unconditional and genuine connection that can last a lifetime.

However, long-distance relationships are a different story. The same love advice you often read about is not enough to manage its overlapping and more complex setup. This is because aside from the physical distance that couples have to deal with, the emotional and mental stress that anyone who is so far away from that person who makes their world whole is just too much – especially if it’s their first time to be in love.

If you’re one of the poor souls who are slowly failing the challenges of being in a long-distance relationship, don’t give up yet. Instead, let this article help you find your way back to a happier and more optimistic future with the person you love.

Here are some inspiring tips for a successful long-distance relationship:

Reasons Why Smart Girls Stay Single
Photo by nastya_gepp

Girls are dreamers, sentimental dreamers. Others will probably deny it but somehow they want to hear cheesy words and feel butterflies in their stomach. But I am not talking about how girls want to feel these things instead I want to tell you how girls live with it despite not having a so-called “other half” by their side.

And here goes the cliché question – “Then why are you still single?”

There are many reasons why a girl stays single. But let me tell you this, it’s not about the way she looks, talks or walks. It’s not because she hates rainbows and unicorns. And it’s not like guys would not be captivated with a beauty that could launch a thousand ships and would not be interested in date her.  It’s simply because she’s a smart girl. And smart girls can be single yet still find happiness in their way.
