Confronting your partner
In truth, the foundation of a healthy relationship is good communication. A relationship begins deteriorating once communication breaks down. Watch out when this happens. It's the beginning of the end.
What is the first sign to watch out for?
When one of the partners starts nagging the other half is one.
Example:
Confronting the other with this line,"You are always late when you come home from work.
You never bothered to call me where you are or tell me how late you'll be out!"
This easily escalates into an argument. Confronting your partner as he/she walks through the door after a particularly tiring day from work never works to your advantage.
Regrettably, this situation turns into a shouting match between the two parties. Overly heated passions can cause both of you to say offensive words you don't really mean to say, which later can be hard to take back.
Feeling caught in the middle of a disappointing relationship makes you blame the other. Every little thing that has gone wrong in the relationship is heaped upon your partner, but never on yourself.
