Hello, welcome to my blog, I’ve missed you guys so much; today I am going to be sharing with you on how to sustain a Relationship.
I made a
journey, which lasted for about a week. It was a camping program, during my
stay there, I met so many kinds of people, from various ethnic groups including
Yoruba, Igbo, Urhobo and many others. As a blogger, I studied all most of the
people I met in other to know how they behave and act towards themselves and
towards me. I constantly tried to build up a nice relationship with each and
every one I met, despite the fact that we humans all have our own differences.
All through
my stay in the camp, I kept on admiring two set of persons, a man and a woman,
they were husband and wife, they just got married to each other not quite long (about
1 year ago). The way they acted towards each other kept me wondering
and made me feel like getting into a relationship immediately lol…
Now here
are a few things I learnt from them in sustaining a Relationship;
1. They always listen to each other
During my
stay in the camp, they were both my instructors, so I got a chance to see them
everyday for about a week. Each time I see the man, I also see the woman, they
were so close to each other. They listened to each other every time, the man
was always ready to hear his wife out, and the woman was also ready to hear
from her husband. Their communication skill was worth to be envied.
If you
really want to sustain a relationship, get ready to listen to your partner each
and every time. Listening to your partner always, has a major role to play in
the betterment of your relationship, It will help to strengthen your
relationship and also sustain it. When you listen to your partner always, it
makes them feel they have a good companion and stops them from seeking audience
somewhere else (Cheating on you). So, try as much as possible to upgrade your
communication skills in other for you to sustain your relationship.

2. They always correct each other
Did I just
say correct? Yes, they always corrected each other whenever they made mistakes,
they didn’t just correct each other, they corrected each other in a silent
manner.
Now this is
where most people in relationships get it wrong. They fail to cultivate the
spirit of accepting or giving corrections (Pride). They fail to see each other
as one and equal before each other. In a relationship, when one starts seeing
him or herself as the major person in the relationship, it will definitely
crash and it will not last long. For you to sustain a relationship, you have to
cultivate the spirit of tolerance, humility and acceptance. Don’t see yourself
as superior to another, because that ideology will only take you no where. Try
as much as possible to be humble before your partner. Correct yourselves when
you guys go wrong. Learn to tolerate each others weaknesses. Don’t just correct
each other, correct each other in peace and silence, in such a way that others
won’t notice what you guys just did. Learn to learn from each other.
3. Finally, learning to take care of each other
Yes, they
both took care of each other; they ensured that both of them were fine and
cool. Although, the camp was stressful, but they both made the camp stress free for both of them.
Learn to
take care of each other. Endeavour to satisfy each others needs in every
possible way you can. Husbands take care of your wife, wives take care of your
husbands, Boy friends take care of your Girl friends, and Girl friends take
care of your Boy friends. Do these things well and see if your relationship
will not last. Your relationship will be an enviable one.
After one
week, I came back from the camp and went home to my family (My Father, Mother,
and sister). Hmmmm… Thinking of starting a ------… Hahaha, what do you think I
want to start….
