To build a good relationship, you need to: 

  • Follow the Platinum Rule of Relationships: Know how to adapt your communication to be on the other person’s terms. Empathetically demonstrate your understanding of them when communicating. 
  • Be aware of how your strengths and struggles can impact the other person, and be prepared to adapt your behavior.  
  • Transparency builds trust. Be able to openly share yourself to build trust: “knowing me-knowing you.” Openly admit your strengths and struggles.
