Things to be left unsaid in a relationship

There are times when you must not voice your opinion for the better in a relationship.

There are times when you must voice your opinion about something for the better. There are also times when you must not voice your opinion and that too for the better.

1. Talking about past relationships: Sharing your past is okay with your present partner. But you must know where to draw the line. Don’t get into a direction where you start comparing everything in the present with the past. Then it may bring sourness to the relationship.

2. Visiting places from the past: You may be visiting places where you might have shared some very pleasant moments with your ex. While visiting these places again with your new partner, you might feel the urge to share your cherished memories with him/her. But it's better to keep them to yourself.

3. Think before you talk: Do not say anything that may work against you. For example, if you have had an abortion before your relationship and you think that it may not go down well with your partner, then you must not bring it up.

4. Do not doubt: Your partner has the right to be friends with members of the opposite sex other than you. If you have a habit of casting doubts on your partner all the time, then it can spoil your relationship.

5. Don't put a price tag: If you happen to get a precious gift for your partner, keep the price to yourself. The joy of receiving a gift is priceless. You are only spoiling all the fun by putting a price to it.

6. Reciprocate in the bed: If your partner has made you feel good in bed, then you must reciprocate without them telling you to do so. They will feel loved too.

7. Don't bitch about in-laws: If you do not like your spouse's relatives, then you don't have to voice it out to them. This will only hurt your partner.

8. Money matters: Evaluate your partner’s spending and saving habits. And do not reveal all your inherited assets to your partner early in a relationship.

9. Keep your friends' secrets to yourself: If your friends have confided in you, then it's good to respect their trust. Your partner may not need to know all the secrets of your friends.
