Excellent Relationship Goals for All New Couples out There ...

A good goal to have is to see where your relationship goes. Don’t put pressure on yourselves to be a committed couple too soon or rush your relationship. Part of the magic of a new relationship is in enjoying the journey. Just see where it takes you. If it’s mean to be, it’ll happen.

Another good goal to set is to always be open and honest with each other. This doesn’t mean that you have to tell everything but that you don’t hide things. You’re honest and trustworthy. Sometimes it’s hard to be honest at the beginning of a relationship because you’re nervous about what the other person may think. But remember that the right person would never think poorly of you. They’ll respect you for the person your experiences have made you.

A great goal to set is to take time for each other. Make it a goal to make time to talk each day and have a special way to connect. There are times in all relationships when you can’t see each other daily. That happens despite your best intentions. But making sure to connect each day is a good goal.

This is a good personal goal to set in a relationship. Some people struggle with this more than others. If you’re the type of person who doesn’t always filter what you say, a new relationship is a good time to make a decision to work on this. It’s good motivation; you want your relationship to be at its best. Thinking before you speak can help with that.

This is an easy goal to reach. Learning about each other is part of the fun of a new relationship. You learn what interests you share and what interests you differ on. You may get to try new things because of your relationship and your partner can, too. If you don’t like it, that’s okay. It’s a new experience for you and you may find you love something new that you can share together.

Vow to be real about what you’re feeling in this relationship. Don’t allow yourself to hide your emotions. You’re worth honoring your feelings. If you’re angry, sad, happy, excited or any other emotion, be real with it. Share those feelings with your new partner. You want their honesty so you know they feel the same way.

Lastly, make it a goal to have fun together! That’s part of what makes your relationship worthwhile. It’s honestly the glue for your relationship. Couples who are having fun together are more likely to have happy relationships. It makes sense, right? It also gives your relationship a better chance at lasting forever.
