5 Things You Should Never Give Up for a Relationship

1. Your friends

In the beginning stages, you’ll probably feel tempted to spend every waking moment together – we’ve all been there. But don’t neglect the friends who have been with you for years. In the end, they’re the ones you can depend on more than anyone.

2. Your independence

This refers to personal and financial. Make time to see other people that matter to you, don’t feel the need to include your partner in everything, and keep a separate bank account.
Independence is healthy and necessary — it makes you feel like you’re in a relationship because you want to be, not because you need to be.

3. Your career goals

A relationship shouldn’t prevent you from creating a life for yourself. If you have personal goals that involve career growth, you have to go for them. You don’t want to be with someone who can’t be supportive of your dreams.

4. Your self-esteem and confidence

If your partner makes you feel anything less than great about yourself, the relationship isn’t worth it. A healthy relationship shouldn’t make you feel unworthy or unsure — in fact, it should make you even more confident in yourself.

5. Your happiness

A relationship should make you happy — end of story. Sometimes our fear of loneliness is bigger than our desire for genuine happiness, so we stay in relationships that don’t bring out our best. If you feel unappreciated and miserable, you need to reevaluate your situation.
