6 Tips For Enjoying the Holidays With Your New Partner (4 of 4)

6. Don’t become overwhelmed; the holidays should be about having fun!

Although the holidays can induce a lot of anxiety due to the pressures of making sure it goes about “perfectly,” it shouldn’t have to be that way. There’s no reason why you have to create a set of rigid rules that must be abided by at all costs. Not feeling like decorating the house with lights? Do something more modest this year, like putting a few decorations on the lawn instead. Or skip out on the decorations altogether and spend the evening eating pizza and watching your favorite Christmas classics. The ideal holiday celebration is whatever makes you feel the happiest, so spend that time with friends and family however you want!
