Love Compatibility

What is love compatibility. According to Dictionary.com

Compatibility is defined as capable of existing or living together in harmony.

Are You Compatible?

You do not have to be the same person in order to live in harmony. Differences are fine and some would say even make the relationship better.

Being different people just means that in order to have a successful relationship you need to put some effort in.

Compromise for Compatibility

If you don’t want to compromise anything about what you do or how you live, you will be single.

Compromise and sacrifice are ways in which you demonstrate that you care and are able to think about the needs of your partner.

Compromise should be born out of love, so try to avoid the following;

Turning compromise into martyrdom (I gave this up for you. Poor me)

Using your compromise as a negotiation tool (I did this for you, so what are you going to do for me?)

If you and your partner can compromise successfully your compatibility for love will increase dramatically.

Improve your Compatibility for Love

Communication is a critical part of achieving harmony in a relationship.

Managing communication helps to improve your love compatibility.

If both sexes agree that communication is important and critical to a relationship, why is communicating still a challenge in most relationships?

Men and women have very different communication styles and expectations.

One critical difference is that women want to express feelings and men want to solve problems.

This is a very common occurrence in relationships, and the source of frustration on both sides.

Here are a few things you may want to try to work through the different styles of you and your partner:

Tell your partner exactly what you need from him. When he starts problem solving tell him you aren’t ready for that yet, and that you just need him to listen to the problem (not always easy for a problem solver).

Instead of getting upset when he doesn’t tell you what you want to hear (such as, “Of course, honey; you’re right”), understand that he’s trying to help you in the only way he knows how.

Operating Together for Great Compatibility

Operating on the same page will give you great compatibility in your relationship.

Love is the easy part; often it is the other stuff (called “life”) that can harm a relationship.

Many people with whom I spoke agreed that, despite the fact that they and their partner loved each other, they were not able to stay together because of their differing views on how life should be lived.
