Study author and psychology professor Megan Robbins said that words can identify significant differences in romantic relationships even though it seems unimportant. Moreover, the choice of words is said to be a strong indicator of a quality and satisfying relationship, although this depends on circumstances. There are also other signs which will tell whether we are in a healthy or toxic relationship as follows:
1. Often Fighting
Whether you believe it or not, fighting can be a sign of a healthy relationship. According to a study, expressing anger with your significant other is necessary to resolve woes in the relationship. It is not advisable to hold back each other's feelings.
Anger has a key role in letting the other partner know that his or her behavior is unacceptable. Researchers say that forgive and forget may not always be the best policy. In fact, couples should argue in a healthy way to establish a good framework for handling relationship issues.
2. Limited Texting
Some people associate frequent texting with relationship satisfaction, but this is not always the case. Studies show that the less texting, the better because heavy texting is linked with relationship dissatisfaction. It is suggested not to text when it comes to disagreements, apologies, or serious conversations.
3. Opposite Spending Habits
One of the most common arguments among couples is about money, according to Medical Daily. Surprisingly, couples with different spending habits are compatible with each other. A study shows that people choose a lifelong partner with an opposite spending habit.
