2.Honesty
Honesty is another important brick in the foundation of a solid relationship.
The problem with honesty is that it doesn’t bring only good things. You will sometimes have to admit some stupid mistakes you’ve done.
But the things is this: no matter how huge the mistake you’ve done is, you go tell your partner first. Let them hear it from you. I guarantee you it will make a tremendous difference.
Sure, I’m not saying you’ll instantly get away with it like nothing happened. No, it will get ugly first, but after they sleep on it, the fact that you admitted your mistakes and told them the truth will give you a huge chance to be forgiven.
And beside that, there’s nothing more hurtful than hearing something bad your SO has done from other people and knowing that they’ve lied to your face every single day. It’s way harder to forgive a betrayal like that.
