ABSTRACT

About this life skill Many people are able to fall in love, but being able to sustain and develop that relationship over time, once the honeymoon period is over, is the difficult thing. It involves being able to listen well to the other person, have curiosity and interest in the other person over time, being able to be vulnerable and share personal feelings, particularly feelings such as hurt or fear, being able to own your part when things go wrong, being motivated to resolve rather than blame, and being able to be empathic, warm and kind.
