2. Taking disrespect in silence:
If you are unhappy with how you’ve been treated, address it; don’t gloss over it. What you tolerate will only escalate. Keeping your feelings within you and acting like everything is okay won’t help.
By expressing your unhappiness with the way you’ve been treated, you set the stage for open communication.
Healthy relationships thrive on honest conversations, and addressing issues as they arise prevents the escalation of problems. A good partner will appreciate your honesty and be willing to work on improving the relationship.
3. Not being firm on your principles and standards:
Respecting oneself is as vital as respecting the other person in a relationship. When a woman allows her partner to disrespect her without consequences, it can lead to a pattern of disregard for her feelings.
Being firm on personal principles and standards is not about being inflexible but rather about establishing healthy boundaries.
