If you hold any of these beliefs about relationships, you may want to rethink them. They are sure fire ways to create distance in your relationship.
o All men cheat, so women have to keep a close eye on their partner.
o My perfect partner should make me happy.
o If my partner doesn't remember my birthday and other anniversaries, he doesn't care about me and I should be very angry.
o It's my responsibility to make my partner into a better person.
o I know the best way to do things, and my partner should do things the way I suggest.
o I'm a better driver, so I should point out to my partner how to drive.
Anytime you hear the word "should' in your vocabulary, stop and think. Should is a belief. Just because you believe someone "should" do something you want, doesn't mean anything. That's just an opinion. Challenge yourself to rethink your "shoulds."
