5 Sites to Read to Improve Your Personal Relationships
Written by 9rules Blog on October 27, 2014
Your personal relationships are perhaps the most complicated and/or most important in your life. Different people have different ways of dealing with this topic, of course, but at some point or another, we all want to improve our personal relationships.
As author Thomas Merton’s book says, No Man Is an Island. Even the most introverted person needs some sort of relationship – even with only one person.
That being said, personal relationships cover a lot of ground – from parents to sisters to cousins to friends to partners in life; all these are personal relationships. If you’re having some issues in this area, and you want to improve your personal relationships – especially your relationship with your spouse – before things go really wrong and you need the services of a Pasadena divorce lawyer, for example, here are 5 sites that will give you some tips.
1. Marc and Angel Hack Life
This web site is one of the many self-improvement sites out there, with a strong focus on long but simple-to-understand lists. The web site itself does not focus solely on personal relationships, but it does offer a massive amount of articles that are geared toward helping readers improve personal relationships.
Some examples are:
- 20 Things to Start Doing in Your Relationships
- 9 Warning Signs You’re in Bad Company
- 5 Ways to Stop Feeling Insecure in Your Relationships
2. Lifehack
Another popular site, Lifehack.org offers all sorts of “hacks” to make life better, personal relationships being an inherent part of that. As with the previous sites, it has a lot of sections, but their personal growth and relationships section offer practical advice.
Here are a few of my favorite articles:

3. SelfGrowth
One essential factor in improving your relationships is improving yourself, being happy on your own; and that is where SelfGrowth.com comes into the picture. It has categories like Success Skills, Health, and Spirituality, all of which contribute to your overall well-being, which in turn help you improve your relationships.
Their relationship-centric articles are very specific and give a lot of insight. Here are some examples:

4. Science of Relationships
As the name of the web site says, the articles are about relationships, mostly backed up with data and analysis. I like this web site because it really is all about relationships and all the different types. Here are articles which will explain why this is an excellent site:
- Date Night Done Right: How To Maximize the Effects of Spending Time Together
- Parental Alienation and the Fight for Children’s Hearts and Minds
- Parasocial Relationships: I Get by with a Little Help from My (TV) Friends
5. The Positivity Blog
A more generalized blog, The Positivity Blog is the brainchild of Henrik Edberg. The blog is basically what he has learned in life, and he’s sharing his positive – and negative – experiences to help others achieved what he has. It’s a good blog to start with improving yourself and then working on your relationships. What makes this blog stand out is that Henrik’s personal passion simply shines through.
Here are some examples of what he has to share that may help you:
