Biggest relationship mistakes you will ever make

When you’re finally with someone worth keeping around for a while, initials days of fun and excitement will take a backseat after a few weeks into the relationship. Both of you might end it to get easily caught up or overwhelmed, and making some common mistakes can sabotage the relationship. But worry not, as these mistakes are usually avoidable.

Whether your relationship works or not, you'll be happier knowing you did everything you could without a single regret later. Here are some biggest relationship mistakes you could possibly make.

Lying to keep your partner happy

From time to time, little white lies are permissible. Like when he/she is wearing something hideous and you say it looks dapper just to see them happy. But lying about what you like or what you want isn't going to work. You might find it all right initially, but eventually, it will start getting to you. You’re basically letting your partner walk all over you. You deserve to be happy too.

Forgetting to appreciate your partner

Never forget to tell your significant other these two things, “Thank you” and “I love you”. In the beginning, you must've noticed and appreciated all kinds of things that he/she was doing for you and praised him/her accordingly. But later, this is a mistake everybody tends to make. Never take your partner for granted.

Blaming your relationship for everything

It might seem like your universe literally revolves around your relationship. That doesn't mean you can blame your relationship for everything that goes wrong in your life. Sometimes it's because of YOU. Talk to your partner and figure out what you’re going through. You can’t exactly blame the other person for leaving if you’re always blaming the relationship and him for everything.

Pretending everything’s okay

If you feel that something’s not right in your relationship, address it. Things aren't going to get better on its own if you pretend if everything is sunshine and rainbows. It is important to communicate and sort things out rather than ignoring it.

Being too co-dependent

The idea of spending every moment with your love seems marvellous and romantic. But eventually, you will ultimately lose your identity, or who you are as an individual. You don't have to consult your significant other about EVERY small decision you take. You have to take some time to do things that YOU love.

Trying to change the other person

It is essential to understand that in relationships, we are all independent and unique individuals. It is quite natural to be attracted to someone who is completely opposite to you. But after a while you can have that temptation to try and change them to be the same as you. Take a look back and remember WHY you fell in love with the person.

Cheating in any form

If you're cheating, whether it's physical or emotional, you’ll end up regretting it. If you feel like the relationship is bad, then end it. Do resist the temptation and don't cheat if you care about your partner. This is an absolute deal-breaker.

Take a long hard look at your relationship right now. Are you doing any of these? If yes, stop. It is never late to correct a mistake.
