6 CHARACTER TRAITS THAT WOULD MINIMISE RELATIONSHIP QUARRELS

You would hardly see a relationship that exists without misunderstandings and quarrels. For two different people with different personalities to come together and have a relationship then it is only normal for misunderstandings to occur; it also doesn’t mean that all relationships must have those quarrels.

Different degrees of quarrels abounds in different relationships, while frequent quarrels might be in one relationship, another might be less frequent, and you have to agree that the lesser the quarrels the more understanding would exist in that relationship.

For a relationship to succeed, quarrels must be minimal and for quarrels to be minimal certain characters and traits must exist.

Continue below as I reveal 6 characters or personality traits that every relationship needs to minimise quarrels

1. ABILITY TO LISTEN

Sometimes what a relationship lacks is the ability for partners to listen to each other; this partner wants his or her opinion to be heard and the other too wants to be heard, meaning no one is listening. If one or both partners can have that habit of listening then the relationship would be free of some of those petty quarrels that eventually leads to big quarrels.

2. PLACE YOURSELF IN THE OTHER’S SHOES

If we all can have that understanding that sometimes we need to place ourselves in our partner’s shoes then misunderstandings would happen less often. Most times the picture is always different at the other side; how you see things might be different from how your partner sees things; that ability to look at things from your partner’s point of view can help a lot towards achieving that relationship that would exist with minimum quarrels.

3. ABILITY TO SPOT TROUBLE

So many of us have that ability to perceive trouble is coming, from probably a discussion or an argument or something else but would still binge into it like a kid given chocolates and candy. When you notice that talks are getting out of hand it’s best to keep quiet rather than let the talk linger on so it doesn’t lead to a quarrel. Spotting troubles and avoiding them when you notice that they are coming thick and fast would help every relationship avoid frequent quarrels.

4. LEARN TO APOLOGISE QUICKLY

Sometimes all your partner needs to calm down is “I’m sorry”, rather than playing the blame game, a simple “I’m sorry’ would prevent so many unforeseen quarrels and solve many as well. There is nothing wrong in apologising; so many people see it as a weakness but it’s a strength; having the ability to apologise portrays so many characters like maturity and being sensitive.

5. ABILITY TO FORGIVE

So many relationship partners tend to lack this trait; forgiving someone might not be easy but it’s a must for a relationship to succeed. Going to bed with a bitter heart and keeping things in your heart for a long time can go a long way in damaging and spoiling your relationship in the long run.

6. LEARN TO LOVE

Love has this innate ability to help a relationship through so many hitches; you went into that relationship for a reason, so do not see that partner of yours as the enemy, just let love flow through and the quarrels that happen often would be a thing of the past. Loving your partner would make you see more of the good than the bad, and this would help solve most of those frequent quarrels and misunderstandings that lingers around relationships.

For success to exist in any thing you do, hard work must exist, and your relationship isn’t any different; you need to work hard to improve your relationship rather than unconsciously working hard to spoil it. The world would probably be a better place if we had better relationships.

Have a great day.
