10 Surefire Ways of Destroying a Relationship.

Yesterday we talked about the importance of relationships in our lives. Today we look at some actions that can make great relationships elude you.

1 – Plant the wrong seeds.

Program your mind to expect the worst. Visualize bad things in the relationship. When you create scenarios of quarrels and breakups in your mind, then guess what my friend this is what will eventually happen.

2 – Have a reckless mouth.

When the other party rubs you the wrong way even in very little incidences, don’t hold back. Spit out the meanest things you have learnt since grade school. Then if you still have a little sympathy left you can apologize all you want but your work is done, the damage is already done

3 – Get a big head.

When you are complimented by your partner, use that chance to rub in how good you are than they are and brag about it all you want. Belittle them then thank them for realizing your potential or your beauty. The only problem is that you may not be getting one of these anytime soon.

4 – Assume your partner is a mind reader

When you don’t speak out your mind and assume that the other person knows what you expect of them or what you want them to do for you, then you can be sure to destroy yourself and your relationship. This is because you will often be disappointed and angry at things you imagine the other party has psychic powers to detect.

5 – Forget the word ‘sorry’.

Even when it is proven beyond reasonable doubt that you are on the wrong, don’t give a hoot about anything. Just don’t utter those magic words ‘am sorry’ they will sabotage your mission.

6 – Be a fault finder.

We are humans and so is your partner, and we are far from perfect if you look for something to put you off you will definitely find not just one but several.

7 – Belittle your partner.

Make jokes to put them down when you are out for a drink with your friends. Laugh at physical faults that your partner may have publicly.

8 – Break every promise.

You know the things that matter most to your partner, go ahead and not fulfill them, even when you had made a promise to. Make those things the least of your concerns.

9 – Assume you are always right

Refuse to accept any other views from your partner. Stand your ground rigidly even when you are not very reasonable. You are always right after all!

10 – Listen with your ears wide shut.

When they are telling you about their day or a problem they have just stare at them look like you are listening when going through the errands you will be running tomorrow in your mind.

Summary

The above habits are enough rope for anyone craving to put their house on fire. Now get to work my friend, work on your relationship instead of destroying it.
