While people say that a divide in a relationship can never be mended back to its original form, only people who have gone through a broken relationship know how big a heartbreak it is to let go of a person you thought was the right one for you. Some relationships break due to situations or limitations that either of the partners is unable to deal with. These relationships can be fixed with love and support. All relationships go through ups and downs and only the two people in that relationship can fix the issue. Before you decide to end the relationship for better or for worse, I am sharing a few tips on how I mended my broken relationship back to a healthy and loving partnership:
7 Steps To Fix Your Broken Relationship:
1. Communication is the key.
In most relationships, this is the main issue which becomes the cause of the breakup. When the two people in that particular relationship tend to avoid conversations, this creates a lack of communication which can let the other partner feel neglected. Good communication is the key to any happy relationship and openly discussing things with your partner will only strengthen your bond.
Lack of communication between a couple is one of the top signs of a toxic relationship.
2. Identify the root cause of the problem.
Address the elephant in the room. Identifying the cause of the problem gets half the work done and it also makes you and your partner aware of the issues you need to deal with. It can be anything ranging from trust issues to loyalty and companionship. This step also helps you know the magnitude of the problems you need to sort out with your partner.
3. Go for a fun activity which you both enjoy.
This has been said enough but it is very important that you both do something together that you enjoy. Indulging in a fun activity which you love can bring you guys closer and seal the deal. You can go for a fun movie date or a holiday to bring out the best in you and to lower the stress in the relationship. This will remind you and your partner that you both enjoy each other’s company and have so much fun together.
4. Spend some time away from each other.
As much as you are advised to spend some time together to rekindle your relationship, it is equally important to spend some time apart to realise the importance of the other person in your life. Do not be constantly together 24*7 and give your partner a breather by stepping out for a lunch with friends. People who spend every single minute with their partner also tend to get frustrated with each other.
5. Let your intentions of fixing the relationship be clear.
Do not just pretend to fix the relationship and actually give your 100% in building it together again. Let your partner know that you are very serious about it and understand why your partner is behaving the way he or she is behaving by stepping into their shoes. Talk to your partner and put in all efforts to make your partner realise that you are also equally committed to the relationship.
6. Admit your wrongdoings and tell your partner to fix his or her mistakes too.
If you have committed a mistake, own up to it and remind your partner also in case he or she has hurt you in some way. This will pave the way to healing and will also let your partner realise that you are repenting for your mistake and intend to fix it. You should also be very truthful and honest to your partner about some of his or her mistakes that created a divide in the relationship.
7. Spice up the bedroom.
But for obviously not the least, spicing up your sex life can completely transform your relationships as after a while, sex becomes monotonous and boring for some couples. Experiment a little and see the magic coming back to your relationship in just a few weeks!
