How do you demonstrate respect for yourself and your partner?

ALSO..
describe what it means to be able to talk listen and communicate with your psrtner..

does being in a relationship contributeto your sense of identity and seld-esteem.

what do you think is required to manage difficulties/conflicts between relationships?

what do you think happens when you build relationship on passion first.?

and then what do you think happens if you build a relationship on intimacy and commitment first?

pleas and thankyou.

1. to communicate with your partner, you listen when he/she talks and if there’s anything bothering you about your partner or relationship, you should talk about it. communication is KEY!

2. if you’re in a good relationship where there is love and mutual respect, it improves your life positively and if you’re in an abusive relationship, your life will be miserable

3. to manage conflicts/difficulties in a relationship, you’ll have to be patient and talk about your issues without being confrontational or argumentative and really listen to the issues raised by your partner. NEVER ignore anything that is said. it’s usually the little things that can make or break a relationship

4. when the passion dies the relationship dies

5. a relationship should be based more on trust, understanding, love…however, one built on intimacy and commitment could lead to “happily ever after”.

Lastly, if you don’t respect yourself, you won’t respect your partner. how can any of us teach you how to respect yourself or your partner if you don’t know how?

The hottest thing a women can ever do is…..RESPECT YOURSELF?

A woman respecting herself is very sexy. If a woman respects herself than everything will just come to her (including a good guy). Even when it comes to looking good, if a woman respects herself and her body than she won't let herself get fat, or look rundown, or look like some skank. If a woman respects herself than she won't let herself be with some man that doesn't treat her right. She will say to herself "I'm too good for this sh*t" and she will just leave. I am posting this because there isn't enough women out there who do respect themselves. And it is sad, and for us guys who are looking for a good women it is becoming very hard to find one. So please do yourself a favor and RESPECT YOURSELF, Respect your body, Respect your mind, and everything else in life will come with do time.

True. Very. Very. True.
The hard part is finding a guy who will respect you for respecting yourself, though. THATS where I'M at.

Do you respect and value yourself highly –your body,your thoughts and your words?

Please discuss this question with careful and reflective answers!!! I will NOT ENTERTAIN careless and thoughtless answers. AS humans-let us learn to be CIVILISED and RESPECTFUL to one and another!! We are the highest "thinking" living creature on earth, capable of deepest emotions and thoughts, compassion for ourselves and for others living in this world too!! How you value and respect others depend alot on how you valued yourself? How good you feel about yourself or how bad you feel about yourself?? Do you had a happy childhood? Are you full of anger,hatred towards yourself because someone had "robbed" you of your pride and dignity ? Do you feel revengeful ? Do you feel you want to hurt yourself? Cut yourself,inflicting pain on others? WHY? BECAUSE YOU ARE DEEPLY HURT RIGHT INSIDE ! Do you have people– important to you but do not express and value you highly as a person? Because we do not feel good about ourselves–we lost to " value" ourselves in thoughts,words and actions.

Good sermon! The Will is positive, the Judgment is negative. I value self greater than zero.

Do you think it’s important to respect the differences between yourself and others?

Why or why not?

absolutely YES!! God made us exactly the way He wanted to! and, that DIFFERENCE is what makes us all SPECIAL and UNIQUE!
Everyone is special and everyone is unique. VARIETY is what keeps the diversity so interesting.
I respect others enough to let them be who they are and who they want to be. They’re going to anyway. It’s the same respect I’d want from others; so I must give it back in return. =)

How do you gain respect for yourself if you have low self-esteem?

give yourself postive reinforcement. say good things about yourself even if at first it feels like your lieing to yourself. don’t agree with other peoples negative subjective opinions of you and agree with those that do have a positive opinion of you. understand that not every one will accept you and that you can’t meet everyones expectations. the reason for this is because as human beings we are unique and like different things. for example i like my food salty and spicy; my girl in the other hand likes sweet food. sugar is not better then salt or vise versa, we just happen to like one more then another. also read joel osteens first book and watch his videos on www.joelosteen.com he helped me alot in learning to love my self. hope this helps.

What does this quote means to you: "Respect yourself and others will repect you?"?

To me this quote is about being true to yourself and when you are true to yourself others will respect you. They will respect you because you are honest with yourself and with others. You know that you deserve to be treated with respect and you do not act or do things that show others differently. People who do things that harm themselves mentally, physically or emotionally to get love or attention are not respected because they have no respect for themselves, and in turn are treated as such.

Always believe in yourself and treat yourself with respect. Do not let others try to persuade you into doing things you know are wrong.

Can you respect others before you learn to respect yourself?

Thanks for question George.

Yes.
I have always had respect for others and until the last couple of years I did not have much self respect.
Great question!

What does it mean loving yourself and having self-respect?

How can one learn to love and respect oneself?

loving and respecting yourself is about putting your interests and yourself first and foremost. that's not to say you should only care about yourself and ignore everyone else around you; but when you learn to say no when pressured into doing things you don't want to do or are uncomfortable in doing, you are simply stating that you won't allow people to take advantage of you and telling you how to live your life. therefore by loving, and have self-respect for yourself, in addition to having the confidence in being able to look after and take care of yourself would you then be able to offer the same kind of love to others and earn self-respect from others.

one can learn to love and respect their own self by being proud of who they are and being their own person by living up to their own standards and trying not to be something they're not, whilst refraining themselves from being arrogant and conceited to other people. particuarly their peers.

Respect yourself ; is another way of saying is….Love yourself first!

What does it mean, in your opinion, to “respect” yourself in front of someone?

why and how would this be a good thing if true?

Thanks for your answers!

To me this means if someone is giving you a hard time and making you feel worthless you tell them to stop it (this is not the same thing as telling them to shut up as this debases you to their level).

Good thing WHY: because you are telling them that you do not accept their abuse.

Good thing HOW: because you are weakening their power trip.
