Being More Loyal

Loyalty is a skill like any other, a muscle you can exercise. So while it's possible to lose it, it's also possible to build it. We talked to life coaches and other experts to bring you top tips on building your loyalty:

  • Life coach Leah Morris says, "Taking personal responsibility is part of being dependable. Holding the self accountable, instead of blaming everything on external forces. There needs to be a certain level of ownership over what it is that's happening in someone's life for them to be considered dependable."[1]
  • Therapist, life coach, and couples counselor Kevin Nahai says, "In entering a relationship, you are willing to forgo the freedoms that you had when you are single, as the price of admission to a long-term relationship... you have to sacrifice those single person luxuries because you're now adopting the responsibility of sharing your life with another person."[2]
  • Relationship coach Kelli Miller, LCSW, MSW, says, "I'm a big believer that actions speak louder than words. So, if somebody is doing the things that they're telling you they're going to do... They are saying that they really want to be great communicators, and then they're actually taking the time to sit with you and communicate and look you in your eyes and have these uncomfortable conversations."[3]
  • Dating and Relationship Coach Lada Kain says, "Loyalty means different things to different people. For some, it's about sexual exclusivity; for others, it's emotional honesty or how you handle friendships. There's no universal definition, which is why communication is absolutely essential. Before issues come up, have honest conversations with your partner about what loyalty actually means to you both. Talk about boundaries, how you handle disagreements, and what you expect from each other. Most couples never discuss these things until a problem arises, and that's where things break down. Get on the same page early, and you'll build real trust."[5]
