Life becomes tough when we have a lot of expectations. The same applies to relationships as they end up becoming unbearable when we expect too much from our partners. While it is good to expect nice things, believing that all our expectations will always be met leads to disappointments.
Here are three things you should not expect in a relationship.
1. Perfect harmony
We all aspire to live in perfect harmony with our spouses. Unfortunately, this never happens in relationships as there will always be moments of disagreements. No two human beings see everything the same. We all experience ups and downs in life. We should never expect to live without challenges because even the best relationships and marriages face different problems. All you need is to prepare yourself to face them.
2. Every need needs to be met
Not everything that you demand or expect has to be met. No human being can meet every possible need you have every time. Sometimes you just have to meet your needs yourself or accept that they can't be met.
3. That your partner is in charge of your happiness
Your happiness depends on you. Your partner is in charge of his or her own happiness. You need to understand that your spouse will always want to make you happy but don't expect them to always make you happy because it won't happen.
