During Ramadan we are asked not only to give up food and drink, but to reflect and behave as better Muslims and better human beings. Yet being a patient, thoughtful, considerate, and caring person is often harder when one is hungry, thirsty, and exhausted.
Perhaps we can support each other in improving our relationships this month. Is there a relationship that you feel has gone bad that you will work this month to improve? Please share.
Re: Ramadan and Your Relationships
There is one person in my life who is always without fail extra irritable and mean during Ramadan, i try and see this as a test and i guess Ramadan is a good time to strive hard to pass the test by trying to be more patient as a person. Not sure if the relationship can be improved but certainly my reactions to this person can be. I look forward to the challenge lol.

Ooooh keep us posted :D
Do you see this person regularly during Ramadan?
Re: Ramadan and Your Relationships
I find that hubs and i can easily get irritated with each other around iftar time. We try to remember taht we are fasting and say our astaghfars real quick after that :D
Re: Ramadan and Your Relationships
Some relationships can't be improved on and can bring you more grief if you keep close ties. Maintaining a civil distance (not necessarily cutting ties) can sometimes bring more peace of mind. Depends on the relationship as well.
Re: Ramadan and Your Relationships
Yes, during Ramadan, keeping safe distance is advised.
Re: Ramadan and Your Relationships
My husband becomes extra nice during Ramadan, no shouting, no fighting. And I also feel that I'm more calmed and patient with kids.
Re: Ramadan and Your Relationships
i pray that allah gives me more patience with the kids and on top of that its the school holidays 
Re: Ramadan and Your Relationships
My husband is in Georgia and I am in Michigan. We are seperated first time due to his job after shaadi and we are struggling with it since he isn't very chatty and I love to talk. I am hoping Ramadan will make me more patient and understanding with him.
