13 señales de una relación comprometida (con citas)
Estar en una relación comprometida con alguien a quien amas es la sensación más hermosa del mundo. Sin embargo, requiere mucho esfuerzo y trabajo por ambas partes.
You can’t have a successful and relación sana y comprometida just by truly loving someone and hoping it’s enough. No, commitment means so much more than that.
If you want a committed partner, you must also learn to be one. Commitment is a big part of every relationship and I really think that without it a relationship wouldn’t succeed.
When we’re young (here I’m referring to men especially), all we want is to have fun and that’s why we choose casual relationships over serious relationships and exclusivity.
Speaking about guys and commitment, a British author, Alexandra Potter, once said, “If you want a man who’s committed, go look in a mental hospital.”
Es broma. Por supuesto, los hombres también pueden comprometerse muy fácilmente con sus parejas románticas cuando se enamoran de ellas.
Don’t worry, your man will definitely give you some signs that he wants a committed relationship.
La cuestión es que la mayoría de los hombres esperarán a que se genere confianza en su relación antes de decidir comprometerse plenamente con esa persona.
For all those people who don’t believe in true love or a committed relationship, watch out… It’s possible to have a committed romantic relationship. True love exists and it’s coming your way to change your opinion about love.
¿Qué es una relación comprometida?
La vida es impredecible y todos tenemos que afrontar algunos altibajos. However, no matter how difficult life gets, there is no giving up. We continue with our lives after all those ‘downs’, we heal and we move on.
Well, that’s actually what commitment means. Being in a committed relationship means accepting a person for who they are, supporting them and everything they do, and staying by their side no matter what.
For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish, till death… Saying ‘I do’ from the bottom of your heart to all of this is a true commitment.
No sólo las relaciones románticas necesitan compromiso para tener éxito y ser sanas, sino también las relaciones de amistad y de trabajo. Por supuesto, si quieres que tengan éxito.
If you think about it properly, you will realize that you need commitment for everything you do and for every relationship you may have. If you want results, you’ll have to put some effort into the process.
Puede que sientas química instantánea con alguien cuando lo conoces por primera vez, pero puede que nunca seas capaz de tener una relación buena y sana con esa persona debido a problemas de compromiso, ansiedad en las relaciones, or because you’re not ready to put a little effort into the relationship.
Para que una relación funcione, ambos miembros de la pareja deben estar dispuestos a trabajar constantemente en el vínculo que les une y a cuidar su relación en todo momento.
Y recuerda siempre, las pequeñas cosas son las que más importan.
Por desgracia, muchas personas tienen miedo al compromiso. Temen perder su libertad si se comprometen con alguien.
En realidad, la mayoría de la gente tiene miedo al compromiso precisamente porque tiene una opinión equivocada sobre él.
Being in a committed relationship doesn’t mean losing your freedom, it just means committing to love and being with one person and that person only.
On the other hand, there are some people who can’t be in a monogamous relationship, they simply don’t like the whole idea of monogamy. This consequently makes it difficult for them to be in a committed relationship.
Si de verdad quieres que tu relación sea buena y sana, tienes que amar, estar dispuesto a hacer concesiones, confiar y respetar a tu pareja, y viceversa también.

Now it’s all ‘WE’
At the beginning of your relationship, you couldn’t speak in ‘we’ because, of course, you weren’t sure about where the relationship was going and you didn’t have such strong feelings for your partner.
But now, whatever you do, you do it together and you spend a lot of time together, so much so that you have simply become used to speaking in ‘we’.
You’re not just romantic partners, you’re also best friends
If you aren’t only lovers, but best friends too, it’s a very good sign of a committed relationship.
Antes de enamorarte de alguien profunda y sinceramente, primero debes crear confianza entre vosotros. Y la única forma de hacerlo es haciéndose amigos.
You’re not afraid to open up to your significant other about anything. You share even your deepest and darkest thoughts.
Your partner is the person you trust the most and they’re the ones you go to if you have any problems in life.
You’ve set some boundaries that you both respect
You’ve both set some boundaries in your relationship and from the very first date, those boundaries have been respected from both sides.
You know the importance of setting boundaries in order to have a healthy relationship and there is nothing that could make you violate your partner’s boundaries.
Indeed, healthy boundaries are a big deal for any kind of relationship and it’s important to set them in the early stage of a new relationship.
Ayudan a orientar a alguien sobre cómo quiere ser tratada la otra persona.
Su relación se basa en una comunicación sana y en el respeto mutuo.
You communicate on a regular basis and you can speak about everything. There aren’t any taboo topics in your relationship.
Debes controlar a tu pareja muy a menudo.
Sometimes we all deal with mental health issues and by communicating with your partner frequently, you’ll be able to help your partner deal with it in the least painful way possible.
Como todas las parejas, también tendréis desacuerdos y diferencias, pero lo importante es que sepáis afrontarlos de forma sana.
You don’t think about a breakup every time you two fight. You know it’s not the first time you’ll argue about something and it’s definitely not the last.
You know you’ll get through it as you have already made it through all the obstacles so far and stayed together.
You embrace and respect those differences and don’t allow them to affect the bond between you.
El respeto mutuo y una buena comunicación son tan importantes como el amor para que una relación tenga éxito y sea sana.
No hay secretos entre vosotros
Tu pareja es la única persona que lo sabe todo de ti, tus lados buenos pero también todos tus defectos e imperfecciones.
You don’t feel comfortable when you have to hide something from them and that’s the reason why there are never any secrets between you two.
El hecho es que guardar secretos a tu pareja romántica socava la confianza. También afecta negativamente a la confianza entre ambos y puede dañar o arruinar por completo una relación.
Tu relación siempre está en lo más alto de tu lista de prioridades
Nowadays, we all have many obligations and our daily schedules are so busy. However, if you’re in a committed relationship, your main priority will always be your significant other and your relationship.
If you really want to spend time with your partner, you’ll find a way to do it even in the middle of your busiest schedule.
Your relationship mustn’t suffer because of your work or anything else. It’s as simple as that. I’m not saying you should spend 24/7 together, but spending time on a regular basis is a must.
Hablas el mismo idioma del amor
Para crear un vínculo mejor y más fuerte entre vosotros, debéis hablar el mismo lenguaje amoroso.
If you don’t have the same one, then you must be willing to learn how to speak each other’s love language because you’ll never be able to connect on the same level without it.
You’re each other’s biggest motivation
Su respuesta a la pregunta: ¿Qué le motiva a seguir adelante en la vida pase lo que pase? must always be – ‘my significant other’.
Life will definitely bring many things to your table, but you’ll accept it all and you’ll fight against all the bad things because you have a person to finally encourage you to keep pushing on.
You’re willing to make sacrifices for each other
If you’re in a committed and healthy relationship, you don’t mind making some sacrifices for your other half from time to time.
Hacer sacrificios es cosa de dos y sabes que tu pareja también haría sacrificios por ti.
For example, if you’re afraid to step out of your comfort zone and try new things from time to time, and your partner really enjoys trying new things, every now and then, ease up and do it for them.
Quién sabe, a lo mejor le gusta.
You’re each other’s biggest fan
Sabes que tu pareja siempre está ahí para ti, pase lo que pase, y viceversa. You’re each other’s biggest support in everything you do in life.
Si tu pareja quiere hacer algo nuevo o tomar una nueva dirección, tienes que apoyarla y creer en ella por grande que sea el riesgo.
Planifican juntos el futuro
All of your plans for the future must involve your partner and vice versa. If you’re in a committed relationship then you’re sure in your love and your bond and you want to stay together for the rest of your lives.
You talk about the future frequently and you’ve already planned some things. Daydreaming of your future house, kids and life in general is the most beautiful time of day for both of you.
Todas las decisiones se toman siempre conjuntamente
Todas las decisiones relativas a sus relaciones se toman siempre juntos.
And even though you’re individuals and have your own lives and some decisions you need to make on your own, you still consult with your significant other about every decision.
The most important thing is to communicate honestly through that whole decision-making process. Don’t be afraid to speak your mind about something even though your opinion might not match your partner’s.
Sólo tenéis ojos el uno para el otro
You don’t even think about seeing other people, you have eyes for your partner only. Both of you feel the same about cheating and you would never hurt your partner in such a way.
Today many couples would say that social media affects their relationship negatively, but you aren’t one of those couples. You would never allow something so unimportant to affect your relationship.
Ser leal y comprometido con un solo ser humano es lo más hermoso del mundo y, aunque cuesta mucho esfuerzo conseguir una relación romántica sana y comprometida con alguien, todo merece la pena.
