What is a Relationsip?
A relationship according to collins dictionary is a close connection between two people, especially one involving romantic or sexual feelings.
7 Pillars Of A Relationship
The 7 pillars of a relationship are the elements that make up every healthy relationship. These pillars are essential because they are like a foundation upon which every relationship is built. These include:
1. Patience
One of the 7 pillars of a relationship is patience. With enough patience, a patient dog eats the fattest bone. Enough patience is very essential in any relationship. When your spouse, boyfriend or girlfriend tries to do something to get you angry with patience you can solve the issue.
2. Tolerance
Note that you and your spouse, boyfriend/girlfriend are not from the same family, ethnicity, town etc. Even if you’re from the same family you’re not the same, everyone has his/her do’s and don’ts. We need to accept each other as we are; trying to adjust to one another’s ways of life may affect the relationship.
3. Effective communication
Effective communication is one of the most important things in a healthy relationship. The more you can communicate with each other, the more you get to know about each other.
4. Understanding
Understanding each other is one of the most important things that help in a healthy relationship. One must understand each other’s conditions, ague to agree, disagree to agree.
5. Trust
Saying the truth and being trustworthy must not be eluded in a healthy relationship, be direct and open to your partner. Lack of trust can cause relationship breakup and marital conflict. Trust is very important in any relationship.
6. Love
Love is the most important element that enriches and makes relationships keep going. The less you love your partner, the more you have problems in your relationship. Asking your partner how far he/she has been surviving wherever he/she lives and other words of caring attitude are very important. The one you care about is the one that will love you the most, telling your partner “I love you” at least 3 times a day may increase the level of love in a healthy relationship.

Finally, there must be misunderstandings in a serious relationship but it should not stay too long before it is resolved, and it should not be every time. Putting a smile on the face of your partner at least twice a day is very paramount. When there is a misunderstanding, never tell your partner it is over to stress them. Prayer is the only solution to make things work out in a relationship.
Conclusion
The 7 pillars of a relationship are the elements that make up every healthy relationship. Love is the most important element that enriches and makes relationships keep going. Lack of trust can cause relationship breakup and marital conflict. Good communication is essential in a relationship. The more you can communicate with each other, the more you get to know about each other.

Tolerance, like everything else in this world, has its place. You must be conscious of when you should use it.
