If you have a great conversation discussing your feelings, don't expect changes overnight. Be patient, and if things still don't improve, then you can rethink the relationship again. "After a conversation with your partner about what is not working or what is causing you to be unhappy, you should be patient to allow your partner the opportunity to make the changes. Being patient to allow your partner to make the shifts in their behaviour is what can make the difference between a relationship that didn't last and a fulfiling, long-term relationship," explains Devoreaux Walton, a life coach at The Modern Lady to POPSUGAR.
