j0428563.jpgResponsibility is the most important choice you can make to improve your relationship.

This means that you learn how to take responsibility for your own feelings and needs. This means that instead of trying to get your partner to make you feel happy and secure, you learn how to do this for yourself through your own thoughts and actions. This means learning to treat yourself with kindness, caring, compassion, and acceptance instead of self-judgment. Self-judgment will always make you feel unhappy and insecure, no matter how wonderfully your partner is treating you.

When you learn how to take full, 100% responsibility for yourself, then you stop blaming your partner for your upsets.

When I begin to feel sad, my husband can tell because I get antsy and start looking for things to do. I don't rely on him to make me happy, instead I clean house, pull weeds, rearrange the closet or workout at the gym. Afterwards I'm so exhausted and tired and realize that I feel happy letting off steam. Thanks for the post.
