Describe two ways that will strengthen your romantic relationship and make it more positive.

You can avoid the following four interpersonal styles that lead to discord and dissolution: being overly critical,holding the partner in contempt,being defensive,and mentally withdrawing from the relationship.You can also express concern for each other even while disagreeing,stay relatively calm,try to see the other's point of view,and deliver criticism lightheartedly and playfully.You also can tend to overlook bad behavior or respond constructively (via accommodation).Finally,happy couples attribute good outcomes to each other and bad outcomes to situations.
