Competition in a couple is, in fact, a special type of relationship, which is based on the struggle for something important for both partners. For example, power, authority, recognition, love, financial success, etc. Rivalry most often manifests itself in the desire to prove to a partner the significance of one’s achievements in: career, finances, credibility with children and friends, and personal success. This behavior is destructive and gradually destroys relationships. At the session, we would find where you learned that you need to fight for love. But now let’s not go back in time, but let’s see: what to do if there is struggle in your couple.1. Be aware of your reactions, especially if you are on the “worse” side. 2. It is important to ask yourself the question: “who am I”? Identify yourself by gender and age (I'm a woman, I'm 37). Start showing your best, gendered part in relation to your partner in relationships. Woman: flexibility, acceptance, gentleness, kindness. Man: protection, care, patronage. Everything else is outside of marriage and relationships, at work, in business.3. Remember that a man and a woman create a couple to complement each other. Some are better at one thing, some at another, and that's normal. You need to learn to praise your partner, see his strengths, and consult with him. A healthy relationship in a couple is always a collaboration.4. It is important for partners to support and rejoice, and not envy each other’s successes. If feelings of envy still arise, you need to reconsider what you are doing: develop your strengths, do what brings you pleasure.5. It is important to learn to talk to each other, to immediately report what worries and offends you in your partner’s behavior. Honesty and sincerity hold relationships together. Perhaps the partner does not even notice that, returning home from the office, he continues to speak in a raised voice and direct.6. Know how to recognize your successes, the hard work you put into your partner’s success. If something worked for your partner, then it worked for you too! And if you are successful, do not forget about your loved one - support him, remember all the situations in which he helped you achieve success. The secret of a long-term relationship is that in such a couple there is no main thing. The contribution of both is valuable and important, and the partners understand, care and support each other.
