How to keep your relationship going?

I have been in ,my relationship for 10 years. We even had our own business at one point which puts a real strain on a relationship when you work together. I have no idea how we made it this far to tell you the truth. I can say that Every year has been a better year, so we haven't been miserable together and we are not together because we have to be. Communication is the hardest thing to get right in our relationship. He isn't a very good listener and bully's me into agreeing with him. I have to have a horrible argument with him everytime I disagree with him lately, so we definitely still have some improvements to make in the communications department. I don't blame everything on him, I admit I am just as much responsible for any problems we may have. I don't know if you can say there is something to tell people on how to keep a relationship going, there are many things that challenge us and when we have to face them we work together. Sometimes its finances, other times its issues with raising our daughter. I know that having been challenged a lot has made it easier for us to grow together. I guess that could be something good to tell people.

i guess your right.were still on, hes not just here righ now hes working somewhere but nice that nothing has eally changed we just keep in touch, he calls a lot so we got to talk a lot

Trust is also a major part of the relationship. Trust, communication, Love, if any of these falls apart the relationship collapses.. - DNatureofDTrain
