These days, mostly a dating relationship ends in three months or less. The main reason is - some silly mistakes one or both of you commit in your relationship process. Not understanding the mistakes you made and blaming completely on your partner worsens the situation.

To maintain a healthy and cherishing relationship, first discover your mistakes. This helps you avoid committing disastrous mistakes again.

Here we give you top ten most common dating mistakes and easy ways to avoid them happening.

Creating a relationship without building a friendship first

Solution: Never get deeply involved in the initial stages of a relationship. Take time to understand your partner, build friendship, and care about matters relating to him or her.

Not being honest about your real feelings, needs, or interests

Solution: Be honest in what you say and do. But, remember not to be ‘completely honest’ because most of the times it may cause problems rather than avoiding them. So, the best remedy is – act according to your partner and the situation.

Not caring about ‘you’ before, during and after “relationship”

Solution: Many believe that the best way to impress the other is giving the ‘best care’ to the extent that they neglect about themselves. But, it’s not advised. Care for yourself too, and it helps a lot in avoiding ‘ego’ in your relationship.

Emotional and mental dependence on your partner instead of establishing your own life

Solution: Yes, it happens in the beginning stages. Avoid being ‘completely’ dependent on the other for your happiness unless you are sure that the ‘other’ stays committed to you.

Forgetting the fact – ‘true love takes time’

Solution: Never start a relationship too fast. Take time to understand each other. Moving fast means ending fast.

Focusing ‘mostly’ on romance and sex

Solution: It is the most common mistake many make. Romance and sex are necessary to build a strong relationship, but ‘understanding each other’ is a definite necessity for the relationship to last long.

Not knowing what you need or want

Solution: Both of you should discuss about your expectations from each other. It helps a lot in avoiding further misunderstandings and move ahead with clarity.

Believing that better sex means better relationship

Solution: Happy sex does not mean happy relationship. A relationship has many facets – understanding, meeting expectations… Understand and assess their role.

Relying on first impressions and predetermining your expectations

Solution: In the beginning days, each of you will do ‘your level best’ to impress each other. So, don’t blindly move forward relying on the first impressions.

Failing to find out mistakes made in last relationship, and making the same mistake again

Solution: When you are going for a new relationship assess the mistakes made in past relationships, and try not to repeat them again in your new relationship.
