Your Special Relationship
This is the eighth in a series of M.A.D. Moments based on different areas of your life to inspire you or give you that boost at the start of the year.
What does your special relationship mean to you?
Be honest, how good a relationship do you have with your partner? Do you spend as much time with them as you would like and are you able to spend quality time with them? We spend so much time rushing around and living in the day to day that perhaps we take each other for granted, just because they’re always there and things have become comfortable.
Learning how to talk and how to say what you feel is important in maintaining a good relationship with your partner. If you can’t tell someone how you feel, how can you expect them to know? They’re not a mind reader! Don’t let things build up or allow poor communication to result in misunderstandings. If you don’t like something, say so.
It’s also important that you retain a sense of yourself and that you both have time to spend with other friends and on interests outside of your relationship.

What difference could you make to your Special Relationship this week?
- Make a ‘date’ with your partner. Take time out to do something you both enjoy or do something for your partner. Spend time with the special person in your life. Not just the rushed catch-up as you get in from work but that ‘quality’ time.
- Make sure you’re able to sit and have a proper conversation with your partner on a regular basis. Set aside some time when you’re not going to be distracted or interrupted. Learn to say what you’re feeling and what you need or want from your partner and allow them to do the same.
- If you’re currently single, don’t worry. Make the most of the freedom and flexibility you have. Take the time to get to know yourself and do things you enjoy. Learn new skills, try new things. If you want to be in a relationship, get yourself sorted first, clear out any emotional baggage, develop a great relationship with yourself and then get ready for that new person to enter your life.
