Open communication leads to a life time of connection
Giving up is the easy way out! Try to work through your problems instead of letting go and moving onto the next!
Talk through issues dont suppress them
I would say try to do nice things for each other as much as you can :) because the nice little things create the nice memories and thoughts and feelings that are the whole point of being with someone :) and also, respect what is important to the other person (whether that means not being critical, or restraining yourself from too much cake). I am way too lucky to be able to give such an answer from direct experience :) xx
I dont really have anything extra to add because i think you said it perfectly, it is so nice that we can do nice things for each other and just generally take care of each other. i love doing nice things for you because i love the nice things you do for me. i really like that whenever i think of you, you're associated with so many nice things. as david hasselhoff said on the radio this morning "if you do nice things for your girlfriend she will do nice things for you, so its actually in your own self interest to be nice to her". :) thank you for being so good to me xox

Its really not my place. The thing that I believe in is consistency. Being consistently sweet & reliable is where its at as far as I can tell. Not hot & cold, or loving then moody, up in my face & then distant. Life's too short for that type of bollocks.
My advice would be there's no rules to this thing. Everyday is a new day to start over, don't be afraid to try new things or to see how far things can go. Just enjoy it, it doesn't mean it will end in marriage but it is a life learning lesson.
Communicate! Don't play games
Always put your mate first and don't complain to your family or friends
Communication is the key, just like u form friendships, u form great relationships!! Plus u earn the other persons trust by caring and loving them unconditional no matter wat!!
Trust trust
My advice would be... Girls, stop accusing your significant other of cheating unless you actually have proof. Don't be so clingy and needy to the point of pushing your partner away.
Guys, buck up. Treat her like a lady, not a doormat. Whatever your preference, if you ARE going to cheat, break it off. Don't mess with hearts and feelings.
To all couples, give each other some space, some alone time to collect yourself. Make it a healthy relationship. Breathe!

This is great advice for both genders!

Don't every give the other a reason to doubt them or not trust them... that just never gets back to where it once was and you are never 100% with anyone else after either....
Keep it SPICY and be honest even if it hurts the other persons feelings
Communicate! Work on things that are bothering you, every little thing. Dont hold it in!... When you do, your relationship holds back along with it..
be honest
