Relationship Tip: Don’t compete with each other. Don’t compare wrongs to wrongs. You are a team and should work together.

Relationship Tip: Never compare your current partner to your ex, either out loud or internally. Your partner is their own person – you need to accept that.

Relationship Tip: If you don’t understand or like something your partner is doing, ask about it and why they are doing it. Don’t assume or become resentful.

Relationship Tip: View yourselves as a team, which means you are two unique individuals bringing together your different perspectives and strengths.

Relationship Tip: If your partner hurts you in a relationship, hurting them back on purpose will only cause a vicious circle. Rather, communicate with them.

Relationship Tip: Do not stop doing things you used to do in the beginning of the relationship. Keep putting in effort, as if the relationship was brand new.

Relationship Tip: No relationship is alike. Instead of learning from someone else’s relationship, learn from your own relationship’s successes and failures.

Relationship Tip: Do not limit expressions of love to grand gestures. Money does not show love. Instead, small gestures show love and these should be valued.

Relationship Tip: One of the rules that should never be broken is being able and willing to say sorry when you are in the wrong.

Relationship Tip: No one is perfect, but you should be your partner’s biggest fan, not their harshest critic.
