There are so many ifs and buts in a relationship. And Very often, you get confused over what to expect from your partner.<\/p>\n

Should he be available at every drop of a hat?<\/em>
\nShould you two be splitting the bill in half always?<\/em>
\nShould he make the time to hang out with you every weekend?<\/em><\/p>\n

But before all these complexities, one needs to get the basics clear. Establish clarity on things with confidence which is also your right. So here are the things that you must expect in your next relationship to make it work smoothly.<\/p>\n

Independence<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A relationship is only successful if both people are independent together. A couple needs to grow together in a relationship but also as an individual. It\u2019s essential to have your sense of autonomy. Giving up on things that make you happy for a partner will eventually affect your relationship.<\/p>\n

Respect<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

A right partner will respect you and your boundary and in return, expect the same. It is essential for two people in a relationship to have mutual respect and value others\u2019 perspectives and needs. Never try to correct your partner instead,<\/p>\n

Consideration<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Your partner should always be considerate of your likes, dislikes and how his\/her behaviour is affecting you. No, they do not have to do all that you ask them or expect them to do, and no, it would not be fair on your part to hope for it. But what you CAN expect is for them to at least consider your point of view.<\/p>\n

Time<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Half the time relationship doesn\u2019t work because of time management. Spending time together is the critical foundation of any successful relationship<\/a>. From meeting in-person to taking out time for you by being on-call or texting must be done. If your partner consistently rations the time you have spent together, its time for you to give your relationship a second thought.<\/p>\n

Interest<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Another thing that you can expect in your new relationship is interest. It is crucial for two people who are in a relationship to have interest in each other. They should find some of their activities, thoughts, feelings and opinions of your interest.<\/p>\n

Intimacy<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Intimacy is not just about romance but knowing the interests, emotions and vulnerabilities of the other person. A couple without any intimacy is not a couple, but only two friends hanging out.<\/p>\n

Affection<\/strong><\/h4>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Affection can be shown either in words or behaviour. A partner who is genuinely into you would show affection either by kissing, hugging, holding hands or by saying all heartfelt things.<\/p>\n
