3 tips you need to know to have successful relationship

Relationships are like flowers - most can benefit from a little .
"When building

a relationship, it's natural to want to impress - or please - the other person," Olsen said.
"As the comfort level in the relationship grows, however, people may step back and begin taking the.

relationship for granted," she said. When that happens, a couple - or close friends, for that matter - may begin distancing themselves from each other and become more like roommates, sharing parallel lives as they grow apart.
To nurture personal and professional relationships, Olsen offered the following tips:
Be respectful, even when you disagree. Conflict is inevitable in any relationship, but often more easily resolved when both parties are willing to share responsibility and consider a compromise. If angry, allow time to cool down. Speak softly when bringing up an issue, as a soothing tone of voice can diffuse anger and keep a disagreement from escalating.
Express admiration or fondness and offer a compliment, such as "I appreciate your apology" or "Thanks for filling up the car with gas."
Be on the lookout for cues and capitalize on them. Here�s an example: In the middle of a dry, mild winter, a spouse announces that he has just.

watered the trees and shrubs. Using the announcement as a cue to nurture their relationship, his wife might respond: "That�s great. I read an article in the paper that recommended watering to reduce the danger of fire in dry conditions."
A response such as "You must be crazy ... it�s winter!" or "Did you bring in the paper?" can disappoint the person who thinks he or she is doing a good deed, and create distance between the couple.
Listening for cues also can prompt partners, friends, family members or co-workers to engage each other. If one person offers a new idea in the midst of a discussion, the other can follow up with "I never thought about that ..." and then ask him or her to tell more.
Celebrate personal traditions, such as a birthday or anniversary, an evening out that replicates a first date, or party after completing an annual project around the house or at work.
Don't assume that you should rush forward to solve a partner�s or friend�s problems. Set aside your own agenda, be attentive and listen intently. Make eye contact, nod or offer an "Uh-huh" occasionally, but don�t offer advice unless you're asked.
