It is also important to realize that you are not perfect either. If you’ve done something that you know hurt your partner, apologize. Many people struggle to put their pride aside and own up to actions that impact others, including people they love. Grow up and get over that hump. When someone calls us out on our actions, it’s easy to jump to the defensive and minimize their feelings.

The more you say you’re sorry, the easier it becomes and the more likely it is that your partner will also own up to their own regretful behavior more often.
