Many people do not like being criticized whenever they do wrong. Criticism plays an important role in the growth of a person. Human beings are not perfect. A good partner will remind that you are doing wrong because she cares about you. If your man or woman has never criticized you then there are chances that he or she does not bother about the problems that are likely to befall you if you do not change.
Here are good reasons why criticism is good in a relationship.
First and foremost, criticism in a relationship is a form of honesty. Your partner finds no reason telling you that you are doing well when in a real sense all is not well. The right partner will always remind you to change your ways whenever she or he realizes that you are not doing well. Many people decide to keep quiet even when you are doing wrong because they find no reason for asking you to change. Secondly, criticism shows that you have the potential to do better. When your partner criticizes you he or she shows that you are capable of doing better than you are doing at the moment. It is only an ill-motivated person who will keep criticizing you when he or she knows there is nothing you will change your life. Thirdly, criticisms allow you to see things in a different light. Many people think that they are doing well until they are reminded to change their ways. Frequent criticisms from the people in your life including your partner will give you the challenge to do better in different areas. In simple terms, criticism will help you improve in different areas of life.
