It Goes Both Ways

The new year is upon us. We need more stability in our lives in order to see brand new days. My boyfriend and I have made promises to each other that in order for us to move on, we both need to change. For starters, both of us need jobs. (I need one right away and he needs a new one...we don't see each other because of it.) We need more quality time together. We just need to be a couple again. Change is kind of hard, but it doesn't mean we can't deal with it together. It calls for a stronger relationship. It does go both ways.

To get yourselves financially stable is indeed important. That is a good start. Every relationship grows because people grow and mature. Glad that you and your boyfriend realize this. Change can indeed make a relationship stronger. First, there must be a solid commitment towards each other. Glad you and your boyfriend are doing your best to make it work for the two of you.

Thanks, Zoe! We've been through some heavy situations with arguing. We are going to celebrate our anniversary this coming Friday. We're getting a nice hotel room for the weekend and it's going to be me & him. No phone calls, no work, no writing, just me and him. It's long overdue and I can't wait. Thank you for the words of encouragement.

hmmmm.. good idea, sometimes you just need to compromise and deal between each other so you will have better relationship. Yes, communication is very much essential in a relationship and it is part of it. Yes, you need to spend more quality time and more togetherness to get to know each other well. Yes, just accept each other wholly including weaknesses and strengths and you will be what you are as you dream of. Good luck

That is such a wonderful way of embracing the changes that we encounter in our daily lives. Indeed, change should not be faced alone but with somebody who clearly understands that the changes is inevitably part of a healthy relationship.
