Hello Everyone
I Am @memamun 👳‍♀️ From #Bangladesh 🇧🇩

Dear friends, Assalamualaikum wa Rahmatullah. I hope everyone is well, and I am also doing well, Alhamdulillah. Today, I have come to participate in a contest of my dear maam @ruthjoe, which seems important to me at this moment. Therefore, I have come to participate and to share something with you all. Let's get started.

What do you believe is the number one secret to a strong relationship?

The core secret of a strong relationship is trustworthiness, which is more important than love. When someone loves, being honest and loyal to them is more important than love itself. Loyalty is very important; the first letter of love indicates loyalty. If both partners are loyal to each other and responsible, the relationship will remain strong. If one partner is not loyal and keeps deceiving the other day after day,

eventually that relationship will break, no matter how strong it seems. Love is like an illusion. If it is one-sided, that illusion will fade one day. A relationship can never be one-sided. If it is, then it is fragile, temporary, and uncertain. To sustain a relationship, both individuals must put in equal effort. Relationships do not depend on external beauty or mannerisms.

What role does active listening play in building stronger connections?

Active listening plays an important role in building strong relationships. If a partner wants to talk, they should be listened to attentively, understood, and one should feel what they want to say or convey. When people choose a life partner, there are certainly expectations, and this expectation is to find someone who will understand me, who will feel my problems without judgment,

and will provide comfort. Parents will provide knowledge and discipline. However, there are definitely expectations from a partner to listen to what is in the heart, to understand, and to offer solace. At the end of the day, people need someone who will be there, listen to everything, provide good feedback, and love them. Because people love to live well.

Can a relationship survive without forgiveness? Why or why not?

A relationship cannot survive without forgiveness. Forgiveness is a noble quality, but both asking for forgiveness and granting forgiveness have their limitations. Just as it is inappropriate to repeatedly ask for forgiveness after making mistakes, it is also inappropriate to repeatedly grant forgiveness. When a partner makes the same mistake over and over again,

it is no longer a mistake; it becomes a deliberate issue. Therefore, while asking for forgiveness repeatedly is unreasonable, so is granting forgiveness in such cases. However, if the mistake is of a kind that can be forgiven, then one should definitely forgive. And if a mistake is made unknowingly, one should apologize. Asking for forgiveness is also a good quality

What’s a common mistake people make in relationships that weakens them over time?

In relationships, people tend to make various kinds of mistakes. For example, breaking trust, being excessively suspicious, being overly possessive, imposing one's decisions on the partner, behaving narcissistically, and deceiving the partner. All of these are mistakes.

To maintain a relationship, one should avoid all of these. This way, monotony does not set in, and toxicity does not increase. Life is beautiful, but if a partner does not provide mental peace, then it is better to be without a partner.
