Trust Your Partner
It becomes more difficult to think about subjects that I did not touch on here. I wrote about importance of communication in a relationship, about how to attract men, about how to talk to him as well as about how to be caring with your partner. The theme of money and respect in the relationship I also considered in my entries. What else is life important for perfect relationship? Trust! This is a very important item, one of the most fundamental. To be honest with your love ones and to be able to trust them. Lack of trust is destroying all the good feelings as well as love.
Most people want to place the responsibility for trust in a relationship on someone else. They base their trust on how someone acts towards them. Relationship coaches discovered that trust in a relationship doesn’t start with someone else. It starts with you and how willing you are to open up and allow the other person in. It starts with letting go, loving yourself, and listening with an open heart.
1. Release from your past.
Tune into your current situation and allow yourself to move on from those old hurts. This may require acknowledging the ways that the past comes up for you in the present. Focus on what’s currently going on. Mean what you say and say what you mean. Your partner hears the message not only in your words but your tone of voice, body language and facial expressions.
2. Be yourself.
Sometimes we hide habits, tendencies, wishes that are important to us because we don’t trust our partner to approve them. In effect, we don’t feel worth to be loved as our true selves. Make it a goal to appreciate yourself and then allow every part of you to be seen by your partner. Chances are your love will be more accepting than you think.
3. Listen and understand.
When situations come up that challenge your trust in the other person, stop and ask him or her questions about what is happening. It is likely that your perceptions are not accurate. Listen with an open heart and allow yourself to understand what is going on for the other person.
Building trust in a relationship takes hard work and commitment. Trust requires that you listen to each other and communicate your needs. Once you’ve built trust, you’ve done something magical, and you should do everything in your power to keep it if you plan on maintaining your relationship.
