Chapter 9:

Learn How To Be Considerate

Synopsis

Nobody’s perfect and all people make mistakes. Don’t forget that human beings are sinners by nature. In a relationship, you are not always right and your partner is not always wrong. Both of you are responsible in one way or another if any problem or conflict arises. So, why be considerate of each other? This is a sign of being humble.

What It Means To Be Considerate

If you don’t want your relationship to break into pieces or to turn into ashes sooner or later, you need to be understanding through being considerate. But what does it really mean to be considerate? Does this relate to being a martyr? For your information, being considerate means accepting excuses and learning to say “it’s okay”, especially when your partner has made an unintentional mistake. On the other hand, being a martyr means allowing your partner to abuse you by intentionally doing mistakes over and over again. Is it clear now?

Why Do You have to be Considerate?

Now, the million dollar question is, why do you have to be considerate? The answer to this question is simple—to save your relationship. In order to ensure that it will stand the test of time, a relationship needs two people working hard together. By being considerate, you are not giving your partner a chance to commit a mistake again, but giving your relationship a second chance.

What is great about being considerate is that you will be able to earn the level of consideration you have given to your partner in due time the moment you need it. As before mentioned, human beings are sinners by nature. Therefore, somewhere in time, you will surely make a mistake.

But wait. What if your partner cheated on you? Do you still have to be considerate? Well, this depends on the situation. Of course, you have to give him/her a chance to explain. After that, the rest will be history. It’s only you who can decide for yourself because you are the one in the relationship. Just make sure that any choice you make will not make you regret or haunt you for the rest of your life.
