8 Secret to Healthy and Happy Relationship

Healthy and happy relationships keep people happy and help them deal with day-to-day issues and stress. Studies show that people with healthy relationships are more positive and productive than others with bad relationships.
Here are some secrets to a healthy relationship:
#1 Have Realistic Expectations People are different, and no one can be everything we want him/her to be. Your partner might have qualities you like and others you don't. They might even disappoint you at one point, but you have to accept your partner as he/she is.
#2 Communicate Talk to each other! You need to be there for your partner when they need you. Listen carefully and don't ignore what they have to say. Show your interest and concern to their issues.
#3 Don’t Ignore Yourself Taking care of yourself will help you feel better and therefore treat others better.
#4 Be Dependable Men and women both need each other’s support. Make your partner feel they can rely on you whenever they need to.
#5 Find the Similarities Surely you have similar qualities with your partner, but you also have a lot that makes you different! Liking different things, having different interests, or simply not agreeing on something doesn't mean you are not right for each other; healthy relationships are based on understanding. When you argue with your partner, don’t jump into everything that bothers you, stay focused on the current topic.
#6 Learn to Say I'm Sorry Don't be afraid to apologize, you have to admit your mistakes in order to have a healthy relationship.
#7 Forgive Don't hold grudges! You don't have to accept everything, but a healthy relationship means forgiving your partner's mistakes and hurts.
#8 Be Yourself Be honest and true to yourself and your partner.
