Have you ever felt like you have met your romantic match but feel you are incompatible?
This can create confusion that leaves you in fear and self doubt in moving forward. Here is what to look out for in developing the kind of relationship you want with your catch.
- Communicate effectively
Learn to express your needs clearly and precisely. Make sure to express your needs and concerns in away that they can be understood. Capture the attention of your partner and help them listen in a calm way.
- Respect with empathy and understand your partners perspective.
Every person has a unique perspective shaped by their life experiences and personality. Try to understand where the other person is coming from and be willing to compromise where necessary. Effectively address areas where you cannot compromise. It is important to acknowledge and embrace your differences right from the beginning.
- Acknowledge shared interests and values
Any relationship is glued together by the common things shared. What brings two people together is what they have in common. Focusing on shared interests and values can help to bring you closer together. Try to find activities or goals you enjoy and can work towards together. Strike conversation from common grounds as you expound to other areas.
- Seek for professional support.
You can work on your self understanding and make a great transformation in your life, not just for an effective relationship, but for a better and effective self. If you feel your relationship is troubled and you cannot resolve the misunderstanding on your own. Professional counselling can help you to work through your problems and can support you to develop strategies to work on your relationship and enhance your connection with your partner.
Remember that every relationship is work in progress for an outcome of your choice, dream, and imagination. You are not in it to win and control the other person’s behaviour, rather to work together in sharing what brings you joy. Therefore, improving communication, understanding, and increasing shared goals is key to fixing your compatibility with your partner.
