Building a strong and trustable relationship requires several key elements. Here are some important factors to consider: 1. Communication: Open, honest and direct communication is the foundation of any successful relationship. It's important to express your thoughts, feelings, and expectations clearly while actively listening to the one you love without third person intervening. Trustable third person can be an observer, although if more than observation, it could cause gaps/misunderstandings/problems. The greater influences from third person would make higher the risk of mess up the relationship, which could be happened in workplace, school etc. especialy when if there is ex-lovers and/or friends who have special feelings to you or to the one you love, or if there rumors are spread from a speculation. And most of those, you would not be able to control. You need to protect your love from those people. But in case if both of you and your friend have special feelings to the same person, it would be depending on the person's decision eventually although, how about competing to see how many times you can be said "thank you" from the person with your friend ? Even if your friend are chosen, maintaining a positive relationship, which you can genuinely congratulate and bless your friend, will contribute to your future happiness. Anyway, even if you want to find out whether if the person trustable or not, direct communication is essential. 2. Trust: Trust is the cornerstone of a strong relationship. It takes time to build trust, but it can be established by being reliable, keeping your promises, and maintaining confidentiality. Trust is also built through consistency and demonstrating integrity in your actions. 3. Respect: Treat each other with respect and dignity. Respect each other's boundaries, opinions, and individuality. Show appreciation for each other's perspectives and avoid belittling or dismissive behavior. 4. Empathy: Developing empathy means understanding and sharing the feelings of another person. Try to put yourself in the other person's shoes, be compassionate, and show understanding towards their emotions and experiences. 5. Shared Values and Goals: Find common ground and shared values that align with each other. Discuss your long-term goals, aspirations, and values, and see if they complement each other. This alignment helps create a sense of unity and purpose in the relationship. 6. Time and Commitment: Building a strong relationship takes time and effort. Invest time in getting to know each other deeply and spending quality time together. Make a commitment to prioritize the relationship and nurture it through both good times and challenges. 7. Mutual Support: Support each other in achieving personal and professional goals. Be there for each other during difficult times, providing emotional and practical support. Celebrate each other's successes and be a source of encouragement. 8. Conflict Resolution: Conflicts are inevitable in any relationship. Learn to address conflicts in a healthy and constructive manner. Practice active listening, compromise, and finding win-win solutions. Work together to resolve disagreements and find common ground. 9. Honesty and Transparency: Be honest and transparent in your interactions. Avoid deceit or hidden agendas, as they can erode trust. Communicate openly and authentically, sharing your thoughts and feelings with sincerity. 10. Forgiveness: No relationship is perfect, and mistakes will happen. Learn to forgive each other and let go of grudges. Forgiveness allows you to move forward and strengthen the bond. Every individual and situation is unique, so there's no fixed formula for how these steps must be carried out. But, remember that building a strong and trustable relationship is an ongoing process. It requires effort, patience, and a willingness to grow and evolve together. We all wish your happiness!
