Top 5 Tips To Never Compromise On Your Self-Respect In A Relationship

It is imperative to be in a relationship that does not suffocate you or make you feel small. No matter how trivial it seems, being able to be yourself with your partner has a significant impact on the way you live. Making small changes to your attitude and character are steps to building a good relationship, but you must not lose your self-respect and individuality in the process. Here are some tips on how to avoid compromising on your self-respect in a relationship.

1. Stand by your principles

Despite the fact that compromises are healthy, there are several instances where you need to stand firm on your decisions. You may have some principles that you hold close to your heart. No matter how much your partner opposes them, it is important that you stick to them.

2. Define the limit

If your partner resorts to abusing you in front of his/your friends and family, you should not tolerate it. Do not shout back immediately, but discuss with your partner in privacy as to why such a behavior in public in unacceptable. Make him understand that being shouted at in front of others is demeaning for you and you will not tolerate it any further.

3. Make him realize the importance of your views

If your partner goes about making decisions without consulting you, then you definitely need to put a stop to it. Make your partner understand that being in a relationship means giving importance and respect to each other’s opinions and views.
