Women demand what they deserve in relationships, but women do not always give the same.
It is easier to detect errors in other than in themselves, so it would not hurt to do a little self-criticism and ask:
Am I a good girlfriend? Two people can answer to this better than anyone: yourself and your boyfriend.
But if you want to know where the path of the good couple is going, we tell you some fundamental points.
Questions you should ask yourself to know if you are a good girlfriend
1 Are you her friend?
A good girlfriend is also a good friend, because friendship is the most reliable basis for a happy couple relationship. So start over there. If you are her friend, if she can trust you, if you support her in everything, if you comfort her or if you encourage her to achieve her dreams.
2 Are you jealous?
We are clear and forceful with this issue of jealousy because it is very dangerous. A good girlfriend is not jealous, in the same way that a good boyfriend is not jealous. Jealousy is not a sign of love, it is a sign of toxicity in the relationship.
3 Are you a retailer?
Maybe your boyfriend is not the most romantic guy in the world but that does not mean you have with him some detail from time to time. That does not have to involve hearts, but a surprise always revitalizes the relationship.
4 Do you leave space?
A good girlfriend knows that her partner needs her own space, go out with her own friends, do the things she likes or be alone. The pairs of conjoined twins who have to do everything together are highly toxic.
5 Are you independent?
The one of the own space also serves for you. The good girlfriends are women self-respecting the space of your partner and claiming their own space. There’s the difference between needing your boyfriend and loving your boyfriend.
6 Do you show your love?
Each person has a different way of showing love, but we need to feel loved. If you do not get to “I love you” does not mean you’re a bad girlfriend, but surely you have other ways to make it look.
7 Do you argue with your partner?
A good girlfriend knows how to say “no”, knows how to put her demands and needs on the table and how to argue with her partner constructively to solve misunderstandings and to reach agreements. Of course, knowing how to argue with your partner is not just your thing, you also have to know how to do it.
8 Do you talk to your partner?
We are not going anywhere without communication in the couple and the best communication is that which is made from emotional intelligence. Empathy, active listening and respect are the keys so that talking with your partner is a pleasure and not a hell.
