Girlfriends are always right


Men do understand that their partners need female company and chats, or ladies’ evenings out. However, when your girlfriends’ opinions and advice about your relationship start affecting your life together, you might have a problem. It is understandable that you discuss your partner and your relationship with your girlfriends but be careful not to bring home the conclusions or doubts your friends might have had.

A partner who can’t listen


When men talk about their problems, they really appreciate it if their partners listen. An average man doesn’t open up to discuss his problems very often, so listening to him when he does should not demand much effort on your part. If he is not listened to, or even worse, if he is told that his problems are minor and that he should stop complaining, you might get in trouble which lead towards relationship end. Of course he might not be always right, but make him feel that his opinion doesn’t count.

When a relationship becomes a jail


Criminals have to report to their warders wherever they go and warders keep checking if criminals really went where they said and stayed there. You will probably agree that relationships demand a higher amount of trust than that. When your partner starts checking up on you – are you really at work, really with friends or wherever you are supposed to be at the moment, it becomes unbelievably irritating, doesn’t it?

Partners are not Siamese twins!


Do not force you partner to follow you everywhere and all the time unless he really enjoys it – most likely he does not expect you to do everything he does. This is exactly what makes your time together so special. Before you met, each of you had your own hobbies and if you were used to do certain things with your friends, there is no reason why you should stop doing them that way: do not drag your partner in your girlfriends’ company, at least not too often, because he might not enjoy it as much as you do.

Constant criticism


It is very likely that your partner feels like an elephant in a China shop in the kitchen, can’t iron to save his life and will mess up when you least expect it. Despite all this, do not treat him like a first grader or an incapable person. No one can bear the atmosphere of constant criticism, so try being positive and constructive instead.

Where has the person he fell in love with gone?


It is not impossible that partners change in years and see the world differently after some time. If this means a likeable, witty and playful woman turning into her very opposite, nothing healthy can follow. Moodiness, negative attitude, monotony, rejecting him in bed and burdening him with unimportant issues will end your relationship and make you single again in no time.

His friends and you

 

 If you can’t get along with his friends or if you don’t like them, there is no need to bring it up every time you feel you have to say something about them. He had met them before he got to know you, so be sure he knows them well, all their virtues and vices. Your trust in him is essential: if he hadn’t taken up any of their bad habits before you met him, this probably won’t happen in the future either. When it comes to his girlfriends, do not be jealous immediately but ask him to introduce them to you first. You may want to meet them, talk to them for a while and become friends with them before you start suffering from obsessive jealousy. This, of course, does not apply to his ex-girlfriends who still hangs out with your partner occasionally. In this case, your tolerance and trust are being tested to the limit, so talk to your partner openly about it and tell him clearly what your feelings and possible doubts are.

The above reasons are of course not rules as such, but only the most common causes for breaking up. How alienation creeps up between partners differs from couple to couple, but the behavior patterns listed above are some of the indirect reasons that lead to it. Being aware of what irritates your partner is a huge step forward towards a harmonious relationship.
