5 Deadly Relationships Sins

Every relationship has its difficulties, and every relationship has its joys.

But when you learn the deadly sins of relationships, you are likely to acknowledge them and then avoid them.

There are many people interested in tips and ideas on how to make their relationship work. 

Here are the 5 main sins of relationships:

1. Cheating 

Cheating is probably the number one relationship deadly sin. 

Once someone cheats, the trust in a relationship is broken. And trust is everything in a healthy relationship.

Sure, one will find ways to overcome the effects of the betrayal. 

When unfaithfulness taints the relationship, it’s next to impossible to restore it to its former glory.

2. Lying 

It’s a slightly less painful sin than cheating, but still a huge sin nevertheless. 

Lying to your beloved one immediately puts strain on your trust. 

It doesn’t matter if anyone learns about the lie. 

Even one little lie lessens the love and respect between you and your partner. 

The nature, the gravity, and even the circumstances of the lie don’t even matter. 

A lie is a lie. It will always be harder to know if anything either of you says is true.

3. Lack of Affection 

Similarly, everything can go right, but if there is no affection among partners then there is a serious problem. 

Affection is important since everyone desires it, especially the ones we love.

Take the time, every single day, to give affection to your beloved one. 

Greet her when she comes home from work with a hug. 

Wake him up with a passionate kiss. 

Smile at her often. Make eye contact throughout the day.

4. Lack of Communication 

In every relationship, open and frequent communication is important. 

Couples who seldom talk about important matters or avoid discussing disagreements or conflicts are committing a serious relationship sin.

If you are jealous, talk openly and honestly to address your insecurities.

Speak up about your wants and desires.

Communicate your feelings of being hurt, frustrated, sorry, sad, happy rather than criticizing.

You should communicate more than just problems, communicate the good things, too.

5. Not Showing Gratitude 

Sometimes there are no real problems in a relationship, such as a resentment or jealousy, or unrealistic expectations, but there is also little to no expression of the good things about your partner either. 

This lack of gratitude and appreciation is just as bad as the problems because without it your beloved one will feel like he or she is being taken for granted.

Everyone wants to be appreciated for all they do. 

Take the time to show your gratitude and give a hug and kiss. 

This little expression can go a long way.

Conclusion

When we look back at our failed relationships, we can often see that it wasn’t just one thing that caused their demise, it’s a combination of a few deadly relationship sins. 

But if we can recognize them and interfere with their rise to power, we can keep our relationships alive and thriving.
