Fulfilling relationships

3 user(s) have rated this article. Average Rating:

There is a popular saying, “Do unto others as you would want them to do unto you”. This seemingly simple quote has a more intense meaning—so intense that if all of mankind follows this rule strictly it can bring immense happiness to humanity.

Talking then, about attaining a healthy and fulfilling relationship there is no better guidance than simply following these words of wisdom. It is all about give and take.
Love—the primeval need

Everyone needs love. It stands on the same pedestal of food, shelter and clothing, although we may not notice it at all times. We have loved and craved for love and emotional fulfillment from time immemorial, even before the scientists could talk about evolution or the philosophers or psychologists could talk about the goings on in the human mind. All said, love is probably the most difficult emotion to describe.Fulfilling love? Even more difficult!


Finding the right partner

Getting into a romantic relationship is quite easy, but getting fulfillment from your relationship is quite another angle that you will have to work on. In order to have fulfillment in your relationship, it is important that you arrange your priorities in order of your needs and set realistic expectations. One of the many reasons people fail to attain fulfillment in a relationship is because they get into it with the wrong expectations and for the wrong reasons. If you feel getting into a relationship with someone can make you feel complete and whole, think again.

Nobody can make you feel that. Placing the responsibility for your happiness on someone else is unrealistic and will only result in disappointments in the relationship. Remember there is no such thing as a “perfect relationship” and all successful and fulfilling relationships are based on the two way principle of “give and take”.

Take it step by step

Never rush into a relationship. If you want a serious, committed and fulfilling relationship, take it one step at a time. Here is a checklist of the things you will have to look into before you prepare yourself to take the plunge into a relationship. Sorting this out will help you understand your relationship objectives and will help you understand what it is you need to look for in a person when trying to find a partner to share your life with:

  • Make sure you are truly happy with yourself and where you stand in life.
  • Analyze the reasons for which you want to get into a relationship.
  • Reason out why you want to get into a relationship with a specific person.
  • What are your expectations from your partner?


Nurture your relationship

Good relationships do not happen from out of the blue. Believing that good relationships will remain true and happy without any problems will only lead to painful situations later on. You and your partner need to constantly work on your relationship. The relationship needs to be tended to and nurtured constantly. Therefore, before going on the lookout for a person to build a relationship, the best preparation would be to focus on yourself first. Make sure that you have your life sorted out, before deciding to share it with someone else.


Getting into a happy relationship

Physical attraction is immensely important for a relationship to begin, last and be fulfilling. Although some may not agree on this, no relationship can really start or survive unless both partners are genuinely attracted to each other. But attraction alone will not do. Before you jump into a relationship with a partner who looks handsome or beautiful, analyze whether the person also possesses the other important qualities that are vital for a strong relationship.


Many relationships based mainly on attraction fail, because people have jumped into it with the guess that the person will end up having all the wonderful qualities that he or she is looking for. So remember,jumping into a relationship triggered only by physical attraction can end in disaster.


The truth about relationships

A relationship is a mutual filling of needs. To keep your relationship or marriage long lasting, accept that there will be a period in your life when your partner may not need you as often as it used to be. And you will also be surprised to find out that you too may not need him or her at times. Relationships can also have its share of highs and lows. When two individuals live under one roof, differences are bound to occur—we are humans after all. Very often, there may be nothing wrong with you if you are facing a relationship crisis. You just need to learn to rise above the relationship problem and look at the brighter side of your partner and the situation. Many people tend to believe that everything should stay the same all the time. Nothing stays the same in this world. Things change. It is how you cope with the change that will help you to keep your relationship healthy, fulfilling, and long lasting.
