02/6Better communication
When we enter a relationship, we become codependent on our partner at times. This might make one person more assertive on the other. In such situations, the couple needs to sit down and calmly discuss the details like being emotional, stressed out, angry, or depressed rather than merely ignoring or shaming each other. When you start having better communication with your partner, you start carrying the trait outside of your relationship as well to other aspects of your life thus boosting your self-esteem level in public.

03/6Boundaries protect self-esteem
One should always understand the meaning of space and boundaries in a relationship. Dysfunctional relationships end up invading each other’s space which becomes irritating for the couple. Being in a relationship does not mean forgetting about your existence. At the end of the day, a relationship requires two people to work together as a team. Being in a positive relationship gives you respect and at the same time improves your self-esteem level to work harder together.

04/6Removing jealousy and insecurity
The moment you stop being insecure and jealous in your relationship, you will realize your partner and relationship’s worth. Otherwise, with those emotions lurking around, you will always question your worth with your partner and believe that everything around you is a fluke. Thus, start with omitting your insecurity which would give rise to a higher self-esteem level for you.

05/6Appreciate the small things
In a relationship always appreciate the small things of your partner making them and yourself heard and seen. This motivates both of you to do better things for each other and at the same time make you feel satisfied and happy which boosts your self-esteem level making you fall for the person all over again. A little bit of gratitude, love, and appreciation goes a long way in the relationship.
