Is your relationship sustainable?

• Is the excitement you feel about starting a new life with someone dampened at all by wondering exactly how it will work?
• Does it seem like things might work out better for one of you than the other? (Or does your partner fear that?)
• Are you at all aware of the possible red flags you might have missed (or are ignoring) about your relationship that could come back to bite you in the ass later?
• Is anyone (yourself included) trying to convince you that the relationship problems you aren’t currently addressing will go away?
• Can you say for certain that the communication style you now employ as a couple is sustainable for the future?
• Do you desire a closer more intimate relationship with your partner but fear it’s just not possible?
• Would you like to feel more confident going forward with your partner knowing you have valuable communication tools in place?

No matter how compatible you are, working on being good partners as early as you possibly can reaps exponential rewards.

The work it takes to make a relationship really work for both parties is ongoing, but the good news is that with the right tools it actually gets progressively easier (and more fun). And the benefit for doing this type of work early (as opposed to later) is that you get just that much more time to really enjoy being together.
