How to Nurture Great Relationships

We are social beings. We need relationships in our lives. The support, sympathy and inspiration we gain from loved ones make life joyful.

Let the relationship quotes here inspire you. They’ll help you get more joy from the social connections we all need.

When you feel clear about what you have to give and what you need, then you’ll be receptive to meeting a good match. The confidence to reach out to someone will naturally emerge from your new insights.

And by sharpening your intuition, you’ll know right away when someone is going to drain you.

You can learn how to approach relationships with wisdom. It’s OK to follow your heart, but you still need to think about what you’re doing. Someone who loves you will accept your good and bad days. And you’ll need to show that person the same respect.

As a relationship develops, remember to value the time and attention the other person gives you. When you’re mindful of another’s qualities, your affection will deepen. And you’ll be quicker to forgive because no one is perfect.

And speaking of perfection, you shouldn’t require it. There’s a fine line between setting the bar high and keeping expectations realistic. Don’t make demands no one can meet. You wouldn’t want that done to you.

Relationships no matter how enduring need to be actively nurtured. They require taking time to appreciate one another. Going forward, you’ll grow together through conscious choices to be supportive. And you’ll feel blessed when you both believe in each other.
