When it comes to meeting needs, communication and compromise are necessities. If your partner's core need is for connection and you need space, there are ways t...o negotiate how those needs get met. For example, you take a solo hike to catch the morning sunrise. Taking your partner's needs into consideration, you make the experience something you can share with them to foster connection. Maybe you video chat with them as the sun peaks over the mountains or snap a photo to share later while cuddled on the couch together. The key is to take your partner’s needs into account while expressing your own. In healthy relationships, having your core needs met and respected is not just essential, but should be reciprocal. If our partners are unwilling to meet our needs, the relationship cannot thrive. If we are unwilling to meet our partner’s needs, the outcome remains the same. Working together to meet each other’s needs is a dance that can create a meaningful and lasting relationship. Read why it's important to accept your partner's needs: https://bit.ly/3lKXRXN
