You hold each other accountable
Partnerships mean being kind, but it also means speaking your truth when they do something that upsets you. Staying quiet doesn't lead to happiness, so knowing when to call your partner out in a healthy way will only make your love stronger and last longer.
"If your you or your partner is upset with the other person talk it out without getting defensive," said Hershenson. "Acknowledge what your part was (even if it was simply upsetting them) and discuss what you could do differently in the future."
If you are both able to admit when you're wrong, it will cause your fighting time to be cut down and will prevent simple misunderstandings from turning into something much bigger.
