The number rule when it comes to dating and falling in love is respect. It might seem like people talk about it all the time and never really explain what it means to respect someone, but at the end of the day, all it is is giving people the space to be themselves. But if you aren’t happy with yourself, this might be harder to do for other people.

Such a simple thing can quite literally be responsible for making or breaking a relationship. As long as there is mutual respect in a relationship, then both people will be able to overcome hardships with one another. It almost begs the question, if someone doesn’t respect the other, why are they even in a relationship?
