Contest| "Nagging in a Relationship!"
Greetings everyone it's my pleasure to be here thanks to @ninapenda for organizing this interesting contest.
How do you deal with nagging in a relationship?
Nagging in the relationship tends to be very complicated, but to me I know how to handle it that is, open and honest communication Yes, I do engage my girlfriend in a calm and polite conversation about how her nagging is unfair to me Yes, I do tell her how nursing affects me and try to listen to her side of the story too.
And with that I however realize that nagging is sometimes as a result of one or several unsettled issues or needs in the relationship hence every time I find myself on the receiving end I always attempt to look for the issues that cause the nagging and try to solve them.
Do you agree that nagging comes only from women and not from men? Or from both?
Nagging can come from individuals of any gender in a relationship yes but it is not exclusive to women some men also have nagging behavior but to be sincere and from my own experience nagging always come from women and nagging typically occurs when one partner repeatedly urges or scolds the other to do something, often leading to feelings of frustration and tension in the relationship but I will say that effective communication and mutual respect are key to addressing issues without resorting to nagging, regardless of gender that's what I think.
Does nagging and complaining mean the same thing? Explain
While even though nagging and complaining can exist on the same plane they are still differentiated from one another.
As for the definition of Nagging, that implies a constant request to complete or recall an action, a constant order or an order in the form of a scold, and usually puts emphasis on its constant and somewhat annoying nature; Moreover, there is persistent tendence to interfere with some issue or task, or to recall it with insistence on the relevance or urgency of the problem in question.
And to me I will say that It can therefore be viewed as a type of continuous coercion or importuning in the affairs of an individual with a view to influence a change in his or her behavior or conduct.
On the other hand, complaining is a form of a communication where one conveys dissatisfaction, annoyance or frustration over something that has happened or is taking place and it isn’t always as repetitive as nagging is because complaining may not involve continuable reminding, request or asking but expressing discontent or the less pleasing aspect of an event or a particular behavioral pattern so in sum up, nagging entails continual asking or reminding while complaining entails expressing annoyance with an event. Both can also be destructive when done to the extreme as it leads to the development of tension and negativity in the relationship.
Do you think building a better communication skill in a relationship can helps stop nagging?
Yes, it is true that when the communication skills are enhanced in a certain relationship, the tendency for nagging will go down. Nagging thus often occurs if there is conjugal breakdown of communication channels between the couples. Each of the partners can then share with the other what he or she wants, is worried or feels about the relationship on a mutual basis.
And this can pave way for finding a solution to the problems that may lead the wife to nag and also I have stated that argue effectively can close the communication gap and relations between partners would transform to be healthier, more understanding and leading to more effective marriage relationships.
Thanks for reading my post I'm inviting @josepha, @rad-austine and @emmy01 to participate in this contest.

Your girlfriend is really lucky I must say, cause your kind of person are rare. It is usually had to see a guy who will talk to his girlfriend politely or will even want to listen or ask questions in order to know why the girlfriend is nagging....
It is very true that all genders tends to nagg in relationship, but then women are mostly found nagging than men in relationships. And the way to stop or reduce nagging in every relationship is that, both parties involve in a relationship should ensure that there is effective communication skill and mutual respect amongst them as you have rightly stated.
Best wishes🙏
