⁣Never make the one you love feel alone, especially when you are there ❤⠀
⠀
In a healthy relationship partners feel loved and supported. They require your attention from time to time. And they do so by making “bids”⠀
⠀
A bid is any attempt from one partner to another for attention, affirmation, affection, or any other positive connection. Bids show up in simple ways, a smile or wink, and more complex ways, like a request for advice or help. In general, women make more bids than men, but in the healthiest relationships, both partners are comfortable making all kinds of bids. Eg - swipe 🔜⠀
⠀
Do’s when your Partner makes a bid ✅⠀
👍Turn Towards- learn to recognise your partner’s bids for Attention. Respond to them rather than ignoring them. ⠀
⠀
Don’t’s when your partner makes a bid❎⠀
👎 Turn Away-Missing a bid for connection is the equivalent of turning away. It happens when the partner lacks. ⠀
Lacks emotional sensitivity⠀
Doesn’t care⠀
Is engaging in suppressed negativity (passive aggressiveness, stonewalling)⠀
👎 Turning Against -This is when a partner shows full blown aggressive behaviour like criticism, contempt, meanness, etc ⠀
⠀
Turning towards our partner when they make a bid for connection increases our emotional connection in relationships. Emotional connection makes a huge difference between great relationship and floundering ones. ⠀

⁣Come on Sweetheart, lets adore one another before there is no more of you n me -- Rumi ⠀⠀
⠀⠀
⁣No one's perfect, including you and the person you are in a relationship with. In order to keep the love going you need to have a belief that your partner is a good person 😇, who is worthy of your respect. ⠀⠀
⠀⠀
This probably sounds like an obvious, overly simplistic concept. But it's mostly overlooked. Why is it important? 🧐🧐⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Because couples who nurture their fondness and admiration are better able to accept each other's flaws and weaknesses that threaten their relationship. Fondness and admiration protect against feeling contempt for your partner, a dangerous emotion that too many partners develop toward one another as the years go by.⠀⠀
⠀⠀
Here are ideas to help you revive and nurture your fondness and admiration for each other:👇🏻👇🏻, also swipe 🔜⠀⠀
⠀⠀
💕List each other's positive qualities. List as many things as you can think of. (Is he or she is intelligent, witty, organized, creative, attractive, relaxed?) For each quality you list, think of a specific incident when your spouse displayed that quality.⠀⠀
💕Talk about your history. ⠀⠀
✨How did you meet? What were your first impressions of each other? What do you remember about the time you were dating? What were your favorite things to do or places to go together? What do you remember about your wedding? Your honeymoon?, etc. ⠀⠀
💕Practice positive thinking. ⠀⠀
✨Each day when you wake up, think one positive thought about your partner , such as a trait you admire, write it down and repeat it several times a day when you two are apart.⠀

⁣Friendship is the foundation of a solid relationship. Research has shown that relationships last not because of lack of conflict, great sexual intimacy, etc but, most importantly, because the couple shared great understanding of each other. 🌈❤⠀
⠀
Really seeing/understanding the other person requires getting to know your partner..!!! ⠀

We all do this initially but as we move on in our lives we start taking our relationships for granted. An intentional effort to stay interested and constantly updating your love map helps to gain/ maintain perspective of your partner’s life and your journey together. ⠀
⠀
