12 Behaviors That Destroy Relationships

What's the worst relationship mistake you've ever made?

This is okay because my husband doesn't care a single bit about image and impressing others. He doesn't dress up, he's the type of guy who will be happy to wear singlet, shorts and slippers any day so I adapted the same lifestyle and basically I learned that being a high maintenance woman will only make us broke. We do take care of ourselves still and we make sure we eat healthy and exercise to live longer. However, it really depends on the couple. Some may want to keep up with their style of being glamorous and always looking presentable but being with my husband for close to 10 years now, I've learned that simplicity, respect and honesty makes the marriage stronger and often leads to a happier life. Trust me girls, your beauty will fade, you will have to erase your makeup at the end of the day, your high heels only gives you temporary height and of course your push up bras will no longer support those babies when it's removed. So be you, the man who will not appreciate your natural beauty is only after your appearance and body but not your heart and soul.😉

Why am I watching this when I'm single🤦🏾‍♀️🤷🏾‍♀️🤣😝?

Summary: Stay away from the narcissist!!!

Been married 26 years and we had our rough times. There is no such thing as a perfect relationship but you can grow and change if you really want to. You just can't force another to change. My problem was spending way too much on frivolous items or trying to make the perfect house. In actuality she just wanted to spend time with me. As my father told me once " slow down and enjoy life , you don't have to have the greatest of everything ". That came from a self made multimillionaire that has been extremely poor as well as wealthy. I started following that advice several years ago. I don't try impressing anyone. If you don't like my house , car or anything else that doesn't matter then don't come over. Pretending to be rich nearly caused me to go broke. Don't try to spend money to get the girl. If she truly wants you for you that's all you need.

Some people can't be in relationships. People call selfishness "self love". Those people need to stay single.

I'm now a codependent...and this is my first ever codependent relationship. You'd be surprised what can happen to your mental state after falling for a narcissistic boyfriend! It's quite intense.

I just got out of the grip of a narcissistic relationship, so the biggie to me is the “No excessive criticism or excessive nagging” rule. After years of that, I felt like I couldn’t even walk or drive correctly or fricking breathe right. The criticism was endless & THAT BAD.

Never bring up past mistakes and unhappiness in an argument, especially in a heated one. It is so tempting to hold their past mistakes over your partners head, guilt trip them, let them see the 'wrong of their ways'. But literally, don't. Keeping score of mistakes (he/she did this X number of times to me, and I only did it Y times) is the worst thing you can do to your relationship. Each time you do this, it creates a snowball effect. When every argument you have with your partner is a compound of all the 1000 arguments you had in the past, it's no wonder that these things can never be resolved. Instead, be in a very present state of mind when you argue, and pull yourself back to the present when you wander to the past. Only talk about the matter on hand, that's going on at the present moment. Play fair (especially us ladies). Even if you've got tons of unresolved issues, in the middle of a fight is the wrong place to start talking about them. Relationship issues are like knots, they have to be untangled slowly and gently, and treated individually. Especially for couples who fight all the time. If you reduce the momentum of your fights, there will be a point when things grow calm enough for you to get through to your partner. When both of you are calmer, it's much easier to negotiate and discuss.
