Creating Healthy Relationships That Work

Relationships determine the quality of one's life whether good or bad. You only have to open your eyes and look around and see that healthy relationships are very rare indeed. People tend to suffer, staying in relationships that don't work because they are afraid to be alone. Like most worthwhile things in life, creating a healthy relationship will be work. It takes time to build a strong relationship, sometimes only a few moments to ruin it.

Building a healthy relationship from the onset is the best route forward. Just like a house needs a solid foundation, a relationship requires the same rock solid platform. Couples need to respect each other, it's the blending together of separate, but equal lives. It takes maturity and respect to comprehend that nobody is perfect in life so relationships need NOT be absolutely perfect, but should bring happiness to each partner. Couples in healthy relationships don't point fingers at each other when things go wrong, they look for compromise and ways to move forward without grudges.
