One needs to understand that love is a very sensitive matter. Being in a relationship can be like a fairy tale or a bed of roses with more thorns and fewer petals.

To make your relationship sound like a fairy tale, avoid making the following mistakes:

Not setting boundaries

Always set certain boundaries in a relationship. Although, one believes that if two people love each other, they should share everything with each other, and they should live like a single soul. But it is essential to set boundaries. Respect the other person’s opinions and comfort zone. It is very important to decide limits on what should be done and what not.

Losing your own self

Never lose your own self in a relationship. Keep some space for yourself and your me-time. Your me-time should not be his or her time. Always focus on your goals. People often say that they have devoted their complete life to their partners. But, the perspective of this situation is very important. One aspect is to devote life in the way of devoting time and love, while another aspect is devoting the complete day to the partner and not focusing on self-growth. Every person has his/her life goals to achieve. Make sure that the relationship does not drive you away from what you are doing and what you want to do in life.

Not sharing events and updates

Always share what’s happening around you. One should always share life updates with the partner. This makes the bond stronger, and the person feels more connected. Such acts depict your interest in the person and bring up actions of involvement in the relationship. Staying quiet for some time without sharing anything might make the partner uncomfortable or lead to different directions of thoughts. To avoid this, always share events like a trip or a family shopping in advance, so your partner is well-prepared. Also, share major updates of the day like meals and to-do lists.

Showing less interest

Never perform actions that depict that you are less interested in your partner and the relationship. Acts like not listening attentively, not getting involved in the plans, and speaking less exhibit that you are being forced into the situation. Never make your partner feel like they are an ‘extra element’ in your life. Make frequent meet-up plans and make sure that you are happy in a conversation, reacting like you want to know more.

Not being punctual

This should not happen frequently. When a date, meet-up, or call is planned, make sure that you are available on time. Getting late frequently and making excuses shows disrespect for the partner’s time. If you respect their time and energy, reach the planned location on time or 2-5 minutes prior to it. Every time you reach a minute early or on time, it will bring a special sense of happiness to your partner.

Giving a boring vibe for romance

Not celebrating milestones

Always take care of the dates like your first meet-up or your proposal day. Surprise your partner with gifts or special plans to celebrate such days. You need not remember many days and dates. All you need to remember is some basic information about the days that made the foundation of your relationship. Celebrate milestones like anniversaries and birthdays. This makes your partner happy and also gives a sense of attachment. It depicts how much you remember about them and their importance in your life.

Not respecting each other’s choices
