Creating a Better Relationships

A healthy relationship between individuals helps bring the best out of both people. One can always work on improving relationships, as that is a normal way of improving life.

Getting Close to the other person in your life.

People are sometimes afraid of getting close with the other person and developing meaningful relationships. With a relationship comes the sharing of joys and sorrows, our positive points and the people’s shortcomings and our needs and our wants. There are many factors that play a role in preventing someone to get close to each other.

I will list several of the issues for you

1. How there is a fear of opening up. This to me is one of the greatest fears that plague almost all relationships. People don’t like to open up completely to the other person because they won’t know what the results are.

2. How there is a fear of losing one’s freedom. A relationship should be an equal thing that people should work on. Both of you should trust each other enough to know he/she will not want to take away things that you care about from you.

3. How there is a fear of disappointment. The fear of a relationship may end sometimes make many people scared in a long-term relationship. Most people would rather stay away from these relationships then having the risk of being disappointed.

4. How there is a fear of being judged. Being honest in a relationship means being judged for many people. In a relationship each person should accept that person the way they are with their good points and bad.

5. How there is a fear of being under an obligation. This can be difficult for some for whom this is the first time that they are having someone do something for them. They can be afraid because this place them at an obligation to the other person. They should understand that this gives and take is a part of any healthy relationship.

6. How there is a fear that it is not proper to express affection; many consider an open show of the relationship as improper. Many men believe that this is a sign of weakness. But at the same time this does show affection for your partner and that affection would mean a lot to the other person.

The one important fact that I have learned is to communicate your feeling with each other properly. You should be willing to open up with your most inner feeling that you have for that person, and that is what actually build the relationship and gets both people closer to each other. Being in a relationship means having the other person to support you and to comfort you in times of trouble and to share your good times with.
