Respect in Relationships: 6 signs that it's there

   Normal, healthy relationships in a couple are primarily based on mutual respect. And how do you know if you have it or not?

Here are six signs that you and your partner respect each other.

1. You respect each other's needs and desires

This is expressed even in the trivial little things. If your partner is tired, you do not torture him talking, but give him a rest.

If he wants to buy something, go somewhere, you do not argue with a foam at the mouth, do not ridicule his preferences, and try to come to a compromise. You are not against his hobbies, you do not consider them an empty pastime.

2. You respect his peculiarities, you don't emphasize his "shortcomings"

Some people are naturally hurried and some are slow. Respect is when you don't emphasize these characteristics, but take them calmly. There are owls and there are larks.

Respect is when you do not laugh at your partner, do not call him a sleepyhead because he likes in the morning to sleep longer. You just put up with his peculiarity and don't try to remake him.

3. You respect your partner's tastes.

That is, we never let go of caustic remarks about his clothes, music or taste preferences and other things.

4. You respect your partner's feelings

That is, you really care about what he feels, how he feels about some situation.

Respect means not to belittle the other person's feelings, not to devalue them, not to say, "What nonsense you have in your head!

5. Respect means to treat with respect the position of the person, not to try to argue with it, even if it does not coincide with yours and seems dense to you

If you chose this person, it means you were quite happy with his worldview, so why are you waving your fists after the fight?

If your partner has a certain opinion that you do not like, just talk about it, without any hurtful remarks or recriminations. You also have the right to express your point of view without hurting your "opponent's" personality.

6. Respect is also based on the principle of mutual support

In a couple where people respect each other, they will never be disdainful of a person's attempt to grow, to develop, to strive for some peaks and dreams.
