Dynamics of communication

Communicating in Relationships
Is there a right way to communicate in relationships? How straight could be and how to distinguish friendship and acquaintances? In communication the only way to make a mistake is not to talk or not give signs that you are interested in what other people is saying or doing. In very long relationships we can develop ways to figure out what your partner is even thinking without saying a word. I have been in a relationship with my wife for almost 14 years.
First of all I think the most important ways to keep a relationship health are: learning how to communicate between each other, respect his/her opinions and have, more than love, a full feeling of friendship. Of course you have to trust and enjoy the company of your partner at all times, although friendship is going to make this commitment much more pleasurable than anything. My fiancée and I met when I was 16 and she was 14. For the first time we met we both felt sexually attracted by the other, but our relationship was not beyond teenagers flirting. By that time we were acquaintances wanting to know better each other. When you are that age you, usually, don’t want any close relation. We spent almost one year as acquaintances, only seeing each other in parties, but we had never gone beyond a “Hi”. In the following summer vacations we went to the same beach, and there I formally introduce myself to her. I have never been a shy guy, and when I was a teenager I used to really hit in a lot of girls, so I decided, why couldn’t I introduce myself to her if I do that for many other girls.
It happened in the beginning of the summer, and I didn’t know by that time why that girl would make me hesitate or stagger in front of her. At that moment, we start getting to know each other and from acquaintances we move forward in our relationship becoming friends. We quite talked about our lives and shared many stories about ourselves and by doing that, at the end of that summer we were friends.
