A relationship is a complicated thing that requires a great deal of commitment. You are dealing with two people who are investing not only their time but their heart and all the emotions that come along with that. No longer is it just a simple hit it and quit it situation. You are telling this person that you want to be with them and only them and that you may be looking to spend a lifetime together. I was recently in a two year relationship that ended about three months ago. It took time for me to realize the mistakes I made in the relationship. I am not an expert and do not claim to be one, but I have had plenty of experience with relationships and am willing to bring the knowledge I have to the table. Their are two most important aspects in keeping a healthy relationship that you must be aware of. Communication is what makes or breaks a relationship. If you can not effectively communicate with a partner/spouse then as time goes on you will both face some serious consequences. Though communication holds a high standing in keeping a relationship together, trust is what holds a relationship together. Without it you are a relationship is failed.

Like I stated above communication is extremely important in a relationship. Keeping things bottled up inside is the worst possible thing you can do it only leads to serious conflicts that end up making the situation escalate far beyond what it should. You must be open with your partner/spouse about everything. The best thing is to be straightforward from the beginning tell your partner/spouse anything you think they should know about you that may affect your relationship later on. Its important they are aware of it now so that incase they have to deal with it later in the relationship they can be prepared and not be taken aback. As far as arguing goes my take on that is that arguing is healthy. If you do not argue something is wrong. It usually means that the fire has burned out in the relationship and though you may enjoy spending time with that person the love has faded away. Arguing shows that your partner/spouse is passionate about the relationship and that they care a great deal about you. It tells you that they are still willing to work through all the problems you have no matter what the cost is.
The way you argue is crucial, from the tone of voice to the way your approach the situation, it all plays a part in how things will unfold. The perfect time to have a serious conversation with your partner/spouse
