There are three most important ingredients for a love relationship.People have experienced that 'love overcomes everything', unfortunately does not always hold true. Those three other important ingredients for a relationship are understanding, respect and acceptance. 

Respect Well, it may sound somewhat formal but having respect is to respect each other. Appreciation for qualities and performance of your partner make your relationship stronger. You do not always have to agree with your partner but you can respect the way someone approaches or sees things. Suppose your partner thinks yoga is important and spends hours on learning to stand on his head, separate from a wall. You may find it ridiculous that someone loses his time with that but it will be better if you can admire his dedication and perseverance. 

Understanding When you understand your partner, you are less disturbed by him or her. You do not get annoyed because you understand why someone says or does something. Imagine that you are an active type that has to be constantly busy. Just enjoying a sunny terrace is a waste of your time. While your partner needs to do nothing at times. Even though you know this from each other, you often try to change each other. Because you do not understand how someone can waste their time and he does not understand why you always want to be busy. 

Acceptance You are not the same person as when you first met. You may have found your life partner on a matrimonial site or by an arranged marriage. Over the time, you grow and you change. Your personality changes constantly, but your essence remains the same. Your personality is formed by your beliefs, your experiences and your upbringing. You can look at life differently through new experiences and get a different personality.
