How Can I Go About Fixing My Bad Relationship?

How many times has this question been presented? There are many relationships that went to a break up that could have been saved if the couple had stepped back to look at what was going on between them. They may have been able to see that what they where doing was the wrong way to fix their problems.

One of the first things a couple should work on is good communication skills. If the two can not effectively talk to each other, how can they expect to workout any problems they may have. If you are having problems with your boyfriend can you talk to him about it and carry on a decent exchange of ideas or does it become a shouting match?

If a couple have been together for a while they can get to the point where communication starts to slip, this is something you must constantly work on. Even talking together about the days events, how things are going at work and what's happening in the world are subjects that get you started. Don't come home and each of you go about your own thing without much interaction.

To go along with talking, you need to be a good listener. This is when you hear what the other is saying and catch what's going on in their world. If your partner has something to say to you give them the respect of paying attention or you may miss something very important. Again, as a couple that has been together for some time, the listening skills can slip, it is sometimes called selective hearing.

Work on your communication skills and you can avoid having to fix a bad relationship. There will be problems that come up but being the two of you are able to talk to each other the problems are easier to fix.
