#Relationships: Your SELF-ESTEEM could be ruining your relationship!

“You have to love yourself before you can love somebody else.” We’ve all heard someone say something like that and as hokey as it sounds, it’s true.

Like scientifically true.

Relationship research has found that how long your relationship goes on depends on how much you like yourself. People with high self-esteem can keep things together and maintain their happiness for the long haul. On the other hand, if you’re lacking in the pride department, happiness will decline over time as will your relationship.

One of the biggest things that having more self-confidence will get you is more assertiveness. The more comfortable you are with yourself the more you’ll want to voice what your needs and wants are in your relationship. And research confirms that assertive people also have a better time in the bedroom. Meanwhile, people with low self-esteem tend to hide their truths and compromise real intimacy.

But don’t freak out yet. There’s still a chance for you yet. You just need to get serious about raising your self-esteem. This will increase your happiness and your relationship satisfaction at the same time. Win, win, win!
