One of the 5 P’s of Life is “Personal Relationships” – your relationship with others, including your spouse, significant other, parents, other family members, and friends. To build and strengthen these relationships it’s important to dedicate time to them – no matter how busy life becomes for you.

Below are personal relationship tips we tweeted last month on Twitter. Please share these tips with your loved ones.

As you age, it’s okay to shrink your social network to focus on relationships that truly matter. 

If you’re living in silence with your spouse, take the initiative to break the silence and start sharing information about your day.

Convincing aging parents to accept in-home care can be challenging – listen to their fears and reassure them of the positive change in-home care will make. 

Starting a new relationship while you’re still healing from the last one is rarely a good decision.

For relationships that really matter to you, be proactive and announce your divorce before they hear it from others.
