Relationships Including the Acceptable and Unacceptable Expressions of Attractions Understanding Personal Relationships RELATIONSHIP - It is said that every kind of relationship is a two-way traffic which means that all parties should learn how to give and take. There are different forms of relationships and each of us has a clear description for each of these forms. We certainly have our own ways of creating and improving these relationships. Affection - is one of human beings' greatest emotions. There is a lot of passion, but more are conveyed in an intimate partnership with a compatible partner. Romantic attachments are one of the most important aspects of life for these people, and a source of tremendous fulfilment. What is personal relationship? is a f orm linke of re d t l at i can o o a per onship nly b son a c l os e im n d el y port wh i c pers ant t h on. o th a t o n a l P e r s d s o f i p Ki n i o n sh e l a t R •PRIVACY and INTIMACY- are two attributes describing personal relationships and level of commitment to another person/s •IMPERSONAL RELATIONSHIP- commitment to an organization like a business entity, a principle or purpose. •ATTRACTION- it is a force that unites people and can grow into an attachment which eventually leads to commitment.

This time, allow yourself to open your mind to see the difference between acceptable and unacceptable means of expressing attractions towards the opposite sex. In this way, you will also have a chance to unlearn the bad practices that you have in showing how attracted you are to someone. Th e r e are and m many ainte facto nanc rs th relat e o f at l e a ionsh h e a lthy d to th i ps , i and a e grow nclud ccept th ing: able 1. Mutual respect - Will he or she get to know how smart and why you are? Will your partner listen to you when you say you are not happy doing something and then instantly back off? Respect in a partnership means that each partner trusts and respects the weaknesses of each other and will never question them. 2. Trust - You talk to a classmate, and your partner wanders about. Is he going to lose his cool, or is he going to keep walking, because he knows you are never going to cheat on him? Often it's normal to get a little jealous; jealousy is a common feeling. But how a person reacts when he feels jealous is what matters. Though you trust each other, there is no guarantee that you will have a healthy relationship. 3. Honesty - This one goes hand-in - hand with confidence, because when one of you is not honest, it is difficult to trust another. Have you ever caught your partner in a total lie? Like when she told you that she / he was occupied with homework, but it turned out that she / he was talking to friends? You're going to have a lot of difficulty believing the next time she / he says she / he has to work and the trust will be on dangerous foundations. 4. Support - It is not only in difficult times that you should be supported by your partner. Usually, when the whole world is falling apart, we thought that this is the only time we need support from others. Even in your best, you still need support and when time gets tough, your significant other should still be there. 5. Fairness/Equality - You need to have a give and a take in your relationship. Do you take turns deciding what kind of food to eat? Are you going out with your friends as a partner as much as you stay out with your friends? If it is not a fair balance, you will know. When a relationship transforms into a power struggle, with one party trying to get his or her way all the time, changes get really fast. 6. Separate identities - In a stable relationship, everybody has to make compromises. But that does not mean you should have the feeling that you are losing yourself. You both had your own lives when you started out (families, friends, interests, hobbies, etc.) and that should not change. You should not pretend to like something that you do not like, or give up seeing your mates, or give up something that you love. And you should also feel free to build new abilities or interests, make new friends, and move forward. 7. Good Communication - Are you going to speak to each other and share the feelings that matter to you? Don't keep your emotions locked up because you are afraid your partner does not even need to hear about it. And if you need some time to think about something before you are ready to talk about it, you will be provided some space by the right person to do that. 10 Things That Are in Any Re U nacceptab lationship le Every relationship has its ups and downs, and we all have to compromise a little to make them work. But if your partner consistently does the following, it might be time to think twice. 1. Cheating If you are in a committed, monogamous relationship, cheating should be out of the question. Many people will say infidelity is a deal-breaker. However, others will decide to stay with their partners after an affair, and, under the right circumstances, it is possible to heal the relationship. If you do decide to maintain the relationship, your partner says they will never cheat again, and they do, it’s likely that they will continue to break your trust. 2. Putting you down No one has the right to make you feel bad about yourself. Whether blatant or subtle, if your partner criticizes your looks, your hair, your laugh, your intelligence, or anything, they’re not worth your time. 3. Not supporting your dreams In a relationship, you should be each other’s cheerleaders. When you feel discouraged, they should tell you all the things you’re doing right. If you feel like running out of options, they should ask what he can do to help you reach your goals. 4. Controlling You should have a life outside of your relationship, away from your partner. It is not their place to tell you who you can see, when you can see them, what to eat, or how to dress. This controlling behavior can be a warning sign of physical abuse and should be taken seriously. 5. Lack of communication You will never be able to grow together if you don’t discuss your wants and needs. You both need to feel comfortable openly expressing your feelings, good and bad, otherwise you might begin to resent each other. 6. Unnecessary sacrifices Compromise is a must in a relationship, but if you feel like you’re giving up everything, while your significant other is sacrificing nothing, something’s not right. Have you heard someone say they got rid of their pet because their fiancé didn’t like cats? Or quit their job, left their family, and moved to other places for someone who wouldn’t do the same for them? 7. Unreliability When your cellphone is not working, you need advice, or you’ve just had a bad day and need a hug, do they come to your aid? If they’re not there for you when you need them the most, think twice: why are you with them? 8. Forgetting the memorable day There’s a stereotype that men always forget anniversaries and birthdays. Whether that’s true or not, it’s not okay. It’s normal for something to slip our minds, but your man (or woman) should remember those little things that are important to you. 9. Self-destruction Sometimes we fall for people who are in rough situations. Though it can be difficult, it’s important to be there for your loved ones during these times and encourage them to seek help if necessary. 10. Not caring about friends and family When you want to build a life with someone, you have to accept every part of them, including the people they care about. Your partner not making an effort to get to know your loved ones can cause a major strain on your relationship. Activity Surprised!! !!
