Sometimes even the strongest of relationships can take a blow, which hits so hard, that you find your very foundations shaking. It’s what you chose to do next though, that really matters. It’s okay though, like I’ve said, even the seemingly perfect relationships go through these times, even if your relationship seems like it has passed the breaking point, if you still believe in it then you can pull it back. Relationships are fragile things but you can put them back together.
1. Just have a little patience
If you want to work things out with your partner, then the first thing you have to do is be patient. If your relationship has come under serious blows, then a lot of the damage repair comes through time. As time passes raw subjects become easy to talk about. Time will help to clear away some of the hurt that has been caused by the blow. If you try and talk about it straight away, then you might allow your emotions to speak. It’s important to remember that once something is said, it can only be forgiven, it can’t be forgotten.
2. The truth hurts but pain fades
If you truly want to repair your relationship then you need to have honesty. Any relationship, no matter how strong it might seem, can survive on lies. The truth will always find its way of coming out. So if you really want to make it work, then you need to be honest with each other. That way you can both make informed choices about staying together.
3. Seeing things from an objective, perspective
If your relationship is in peril then it’s normal to feel like you are suddenly out of control. It’s easy to forget that your partner is probably feeling exactly the same way about you. Emotions are well known for clouding people’s perspectives. You need to distance yourself from the situation and take a look at it from an outsider’s view, what would they do?
4. You need to believe that this can get better
When a relationship is in trouble, it can sometimes feel like a toxic place to be in. If you really want to see it though, then you must believe that it will get better. If you stop believing and putting in the work that your relationship needs, then it won’t be able to survive.
5. Make peace with your choices
Sometimes when you are trying to repair a relationship, you might find yourself making sacrifices. You might find that your partner doesn’t like one of your friends. You might find that your partner wants to talk to someone you don’t like. If you agree to those sacrifices then you cannot carry any resentment forward. If you don’t think that you will ever be okay with them, then you need to express that to your partner.
If you are willing to be patient with your partner and you are willing to comprise, on the things that have brought the relationship in peril, then you have a great chance of making it through the storm. Sometimes you can just tell when a love is worth fighting for and if it is, then don’t give up until you have it. The only way you can fail, is if you don’t try at all.
