Hiyaaaa,

Ever since I've join this amazing website which wasn't long ago, there is many question about relationships failures like cheating, no spark and all that so I've decided to come up with 8 Golden Rules on relationship! So here are my interpretation of a successful relationship they include:

1) Honestly. You gotta have honestly in relationship no point hiding things because it will get worse later and can wreck a relationship. This doesn't mean telling your life story or everything you at night with porn do its just simple honestly.

2) Not all about take in a relationship. It's about give too it could be making a dinner or buying your lover a small gift or even telling how much you love your lover and mean it! Giving in a relationship can go a longggggggg way!

3) Don't neglet family and friends. In a relationship you need to experience different kinds of love and that includes friendship and family so DON'T neglect them because it's important to have them in your lives! It's something that you can fall back on and they are there to help too.

4) Personal space. Everyone gotta have their personal space and don't want it invaded this includes spending time with friends or whatever. Guys plan a guy night out and girls plan a girl night out and put it in a rountine so that you can spend time with your friends and take a break from love and experience a different kind of love (not telling you to shag another person!) but just chilling out and having a laugh!

5) Enjoy right now! People think soooo much about their relationship literally like the future ohhh I'm gonna get married with him and blah blah blah or I wanna have 3 kids blah blah blah I mean I dunno what I'm gonna eat tomorrow let alone getting married! It's getting your hopes up wayyy to high. People also think of the past too much and honestly there isn't a point because the past doesn't define you it's an experience and everybody makes mistakes, or everybody gets hurts. So love like you'll never been hurt!

6) Keep the conversation flowing. It's not all about I love you baby and I love you too sweetie or even what do you like about me!!! Being in a relationship doesn't mean lovers all the time it could be friends too so you gotta have your "friend" talk too, talking about random things, debate, whatever the topic so long as it not about love. It's good because your taking a break and it's not saturated with lurveee!

7 Time for yourself. Everyone gotta have their own time and it's known as "me" time or "alone" time, could be anything that you want to do without thinking about relationships or anything and it's just you on your own time and do whatever you wanna do.

Lastly... (we're getting there looooool)

8) Accept your lover. I don't like his looks, her boobs are too small, honestly we don't like "everything" about anyone to be honest but you'll need to find something that you do like. Try find physical things as well as personality because seeing the same old person again, if you look properly you will find something new and it could something that you like!

Sorry for LONNNNNNNNNNNNG tips! Feel free to add any more tips too! But those are my 8 Golden Rules for a awesome relationship!

Hope you had fun reading it!

Lots of loves,

Ima FreAk!

Waw what a good list! Think you are very right in what you say. For me, a relationship has to have the following to work!

1/ trust, 2/ attraction, 3/ respect,

I think, that their needs to be trust, from both sides in a relationship, because if one or both, do not trust, then their setting themselves up for a relationship of misery and mental insanity.

Some people will, get into a partnership, (i think women more than men), because the other person is nice and would be a good boyfriend/girlfriend to get together with. Getting together with someone because, they are nice and will treat you right is not enough alone. You will only feel like you want/need more in the long run, so it's best to find someone that is a nice person, that you are attracted to at the same time.

Lastly, i think their has to be mutual respect on both sides. If your boyfriend/girlfriend doesn't have respect for you then, what's to stop them from going out and cheating, aswell treating their partner badly and not taking into consideration their partners needs and wishes.

I think set the bar high so 99.9% need not apply! Lol id rather be on my own than settle for anything less than what feels 100% good and right for me

dirtball agony auntGood rules. It's nice to see someone your age with a good mindset toward relationships.

One nit-picky point. It's "Honesty" not "Honestly," however the point you were making is a very important one.

Cheers!
