JOURNEY TO THE ALTAR

See through

In order for a relationship to stand, one of the key things to pay particular attention to is transparency. Its not a nice feeling when you don't know what's up with your partner especially when you get to hear his latest good news from elsewhere and not from him.

A lot of people do not come to terms early with the fact that they have become partially the responsibility of the person they are with (and its partial because you're not married yet). They feel they're still on their own and can do whatever they like and they don't see why they have to 'report' to the other person.

This not only makes your partner feel like you're hiding something but may also be a cause for frigidity in your relationship. This may in turn cause a breakup which defeats the purpose of this whole series of article.

Transparency is not you 'reporting' to your partner,it is you respecting and caring for your partner enough to let them know what's up with you.
