How to Make and Stick to Your New Year Resolutions Together
The new year is here, like most people, you might be setting personal resolutions, what about resolutions for your relationship? How can you make promises to each other and actually keep them throughout the year?
Setting and sticking to relationship goals can make a big difference in growing closer as a couple.
First, think about what you both need. What do you want to improve? It might be better communication, more quality time together, or learning how to handle conflicts in a healthier way.
Start by having an open conversation about your goals and listen to each other’s thoughts. This way, you’re both on the same page and can set realistic resolutions.
It’s easy to get excited at first and dive into big changes, but it’s better to start small. Maybe you’ll decide to have a date night once a week or start talking more openly about your feelings. The key is to keep it simple and build from there.
Accountability is important, too. You’re in this together, so check in with each other on your progress.
Celebrate small wins, like having a great conversation or doing something special for each other. These little victories will keep you motivated to keep going.
