Trust your other half, even if you don't trust yourself.

Great sense of humour! Facial expressions must go a long way!

Re: Key to any successful relationship

Thinking of my own family, what happens when you trust, you communicate and you respect but there is none returned?
We always need a relationship to be 2 way or one carries the other.

Just ruminating here!

Re: Key to any successful relationship

Yep, trust and mutual respect are essential. Which is why I have no meaningful relationship with my sister.
Who also pretends she is something which she is not, as someone else mentioned on this thread.

Very true SoulDJ - I think we've all experienced life's leeches and it isn't a pleasant experience is it.
