FIND OUT HOW TO MAINTAIN A STRONG AND HEALTHY RELATIONSHIP.
Weather married or single, do not
neglect the emotional needs of your partner:
Both men and women have emotional needs and in
order for an altar-bound-relationship or
marriage to be successful, those needs must be
mutually met. The fundamental emotional need
of a woman is to be loved. The fundamental
emotional need of a man is to be respected and
appreciated. To make a woman feel loved give
her the three AAAs:
- Attention
- Affection
- Appreciation.
To make a man feel loved give him the three RRRs:
- Respect
- Reassurance, &
- Relief.
It is the obligation of each partner to make sure the other is happy. For the married, as long as each partner is fulfilled by the
emotional needs of the other, the intimate relationship will thrive. Feeling emotionally safe is
the foundation of a strong and healthy marriage.
When you don’t feel safe, you can’t express your feelings and opinions. Learn how to identify whether you are in an abusive relationship. If you feel you always have to monitor what you say, if you are with someone and you feel you can’t really express yourself and are always walking on eggshells, then it’s
very likely you are in an abusive
relationship. Avoid Lack of Emotional
Connection in your pre-marital
relationship.
There are four questions that you must answer YES to:
1. Do I respect and admire this
person? What specifically do I respect and
admire about this person?
2. Do I trust this person? Can I
rely on them? Do I trust their judgment? Do I
trust their word? Can I believe what they say?
3. Do I feel Safe? Do I feel
emotionally safe with this person? Can I be
vulnerable? Can I be myself? Can I be open?
Can I express myself?
4. Do I feel calm and at peace
with this person? If the answer is “I don’t know, I’m not sure, etc.” keep evaluating until you know
for sure and truly understand how you feel. If
you don’t feel safe now, you won’t
feel safe when you are married. If you don’t trust now, this won’t change when you are married!
