How to Have a Healthy, Satisfying Romantic Life

First, a quick dive into the "Smile Dating Test": You've probably seen TikTok users posting their results on the app, showing off their personal dating norms, habits, and desires. The Smile Dating Test blew up on social media because it offers people an insightful deep-dive into their truest, romantic inner self. So in short: if you're interested in what makes your heart tick, it's a great quiz to take!

Once you know your Smile Dating Test result, if you're interested in how anyone can become a healthier, happier romantic partner, check out these tips below:

Take time to figure out what you want. So many people dive into relationships before they’ve taken time to really understand their own desires. But to find the relationship of your dreams (and to be a great partner when you do), it’s important to discover this for yourself. Consider what you care about most in a partner: passion, ambition, shared hobbies, etc. Then, determine what you won’t compromise on—your non-negotiables. For example, you might realize that you need someone who sees marriage and kids in their future.

  • When you determine this for yourself, two amazing things follow. For one, you’ll spend less time in relationships that you don’t want. And second, you’ll be extra grateful for the connections you make that align with your romantic goals.

Be supportive. Partners should be each others’ loudest cheerleaders! If your partner has a showcase, show up. If your partner gets a promotion, celebrate. This fosters affection, closeness, and trust; plus, it expresses to your partner that when they’re happy, you’re happy. That alone is a great foundation for an amazing relationship!

Build trust. Partners are just that—partners. For you two to take on life together, you need to have trust. Your partner should know that you have their back, and vice versa. Honesty is usually a big part of this. The more truthful you are with each other, the stronger your mutual trust.

Communicate. Communication is like a relationship’s superpower! When inevitable fights, incompatibilities, and curveballs come your way, communication can help you take them in stride. Always remember that it’s important to be open and honest with each other because that’s how you’ll continue to stay on the same page.

Be reliable. In healthy relationships, partners can rely on each other in good times as well as bad. For many people, this level of loyalty is what gives serious relationships their meaning. Knowing that you won’t abandon each other when the chips are down—that can create deep feelings of love and trust. So when your partner needs you, be there.

Fight fair. All couples fight. It’s inevitable (and totally normal!). What matters, though, is how you fight. Name-calling and manipulation should never be a part of your relationship conflicts. Instead of focusing on winning an argument and getting your way, try to remember that you’re on the same team. Even when you’re mad at your partner, your goal is probably still to resolve the conflict in a way that makes you stronger.

Say sorry and be ready to forgive. We all make mistakes, and your partner probably will, too. When you’ve messed up, remember that a sincere apology is extremely powerful. And when your partner messes up, take a beat to decide whether or not it’s something you can forgive. If you can, focus on accepting their mistake, communicating your feelings, and moving forward together.

Show appreciation. Did you know that sharing appreciation is a hallmark of the most healthy relationships? Compliments and thank you’s are super common in thriving romances. Take every opportunity to let your partner know that you think they’re amazing. This will help create a loving atmosphere in your relationship.

Keep it balanced. Even when you’re deeply in love with your partner, that shouldn’t be your whole life. A relationship is about two individuals coming together as partners—not two people becoming one! Keep your circle of friends, continue investing in your hobbies, and work towards the goals you had when you first met. Trust us, your relationship will be better for it!

Be you! It can be tempting to put on a mask early in your relationship, especially if you really want the other person to return your affection. But the truth is, you deserve someone who loves you exactly as you are. And trust us, that person is out there.
