3. Authority in the relationship
Another warning sign informing that your relationship is in danger is if there is only one person whose opinion counts. All major decision should be made by both partners. Each of you should let the other one know what is going on and ask if there are any objections or suggestions. Even smaller details such as solving various issues, planning the budget and sharing household chores should be discussed. If you feel that your opinion and feelings are ignored, talk about it with your partner in order to avoid further misunderstandings.
4. Expressing love, feelings, emotions
Our preferences change and we stop liking what we previous found good and begin enjoying what we didn’t use to be keen on. This might include sexuality as well. There is no need to be ashamed of the subject. On the contrary, it is absolutely normal to talk about it regularly to find out if both of you are happy in this area of your common life. Intimacy is important since it influences other spheres of your life such as the quality of your sleep and diet, ability to cope with stress and tension at work and so on.
