JAKARTA - A quality relationship is likely far from conflict between the two. Including not having the opportunity to think lyrics here and there or hint at signs of cheating. Calm down, you have a way to improve relationships.

The five ways below can be done, ranging from simple to requiring commitment to do so. Want to try?

Make your partner feel they have an important position

The first way to improve the quality of your relationship is to make your partner feel they have an important position in your life.

For example, sending messages of encouragement when he is doing an important task. Or you can give a small heart like 'how was your presentation?'.

Make eye contact

Eyes are windows to the heart, says the old adage. Very simple isn't it, making eye contact while talking or without a word gaze can signal trust. Eye contact also shows that you and your partner are interested in connecting feelings to one another.

Get involved in interpreting the situation

Eli Finkel, a professor of psychology at Northwestern recommends couples to make cognitive changes or cognitive reappraisal to maintain the quality of a relationship.

Cognitive reappraisal is interpreting every situation that has the potential to trigger certain emotional impacts. Interpreting this situation is necessary to regulate emotions so that feelings of mutual understanding grow and can both move on to solve problems.

Not interdependent

A saying used to say 'love is not a need, love comes when you are settled and know where to go'. In the study of psychology, that adage describes a little about how self-confidence is related to the relationships that are built.

You don't have to follow the latest makeup trends to wow your love partner. Yes, even though you still need to keep your appearance, the reason is not to make other people fall in love with you so hard to forget but for yourself.

You also don't need to spend seven days by twenty-four hours with your partner. Quoting a recommendation from relationship experts, spending time apart might help build energy and excitement in a relationship.

Have a 'just two' ritual

Starting from having affectionate calls that only the two of you know to rituals that are spent alone without any interference from anyone. This is important and helps build chemistry a little.

Apart from the five points above, having an ethical attitude is also important to improve the quality of a relationship. Know where your boundaries enter your partner's life and don't forget to say magic words, such as 'sorry', 'please', 'thank you', and 'I love you'
