A bad relationship never turns sour overnight. There are little everyday things that tend to creep in, eventually turning the relationship into a nightmare of sorts. If you are wondering why your loving relationship seems like a bad dream now, here are 10 things you are doing – either voluntarily or involuntarily,which is causing it.
1. Lack of intimacy: Be it sex or PDA, not being intimate enough can slowly build up negativity over the years.
2. Not trusting each other: Constant bouts of jealously and lack of trust can slowly build up resentment in the relationship, and lead to major issues.
3. Never sharing your feelings: Lack of communication is again a slow relationship killer. Whether you like something or not, always be sure to talk it out.
4. Start taking each other for granted: We don’t need to spell this one out. Taking each other for granted can fast set in the monotony making things boring and dull.
5. Always being dissatisfied: It’s great to aim for the stars, but also keep your expectations realistic. Chasing the moon might just make you dissatisfied and angry with the relationship.
6. Keeping score: Don’t forget to forgive. Growing resentment can turn your relationship sour like nothing else can.
7. Being too clingy: It’s great to function as a couple but don’t forget to focus on your individual needs too.
8. Forgetting to prioritise: There might be a million things to do and keeping your relationship last, might just be convenient but not paying close attention to it can lead to your partner feeling ignored and dissatisfied.
9. Holding on to the past: There might be things from his past that bother you, but you can either talk about it and let it go or walk away from the relationship. Holding on to the past is just inviting trouble.
10. Expecting him to change: We all tend to have certain expectations from our man, but don’t expect him to change completely and suit your requirements. Most times you have to reach a compromise and live with the rest.
