Put love over self 

Selfishness can’t help you in a relationship. This doesn’t require you to attain a saintly attitude and only think of others first and about yourself last. What you can do, though, is try to evaluate what needs of your partner maybe greater that yours and to a certain limit, redesign your requirements so that they fit better into your partner’s!
Think:Do you really need that pool-table or toolkit as much as your wife needs that new dishwasher? Or what if maybe you buy that car part for your husband’s car today, save money for some time and get yourself that sofa a few months later?

Be a little tolerant 

Just because he likes to eat his food a bit messily or she doesn’t like your kind of music doesn’t mean you have to be at loggerheads with each other. Just a little tuning of your temprament can work wonders..with a patient attitude, work together to resolve the differences. Even if the don’t completely work out ,try to mould your likes into a more tolerant frame!

Talk, talk, talk 

The magic of a 10 minute face to face,heart to heart chat can never be overrated. Hiding your feelings,your likes and dislikes over some habits,behaviours etc. of your partner and keeping them within yourself just for the purpose of averting a fight cant help matters. Discontent has ways of growing it itself, and converting itself to more potent forms..so the more you hide your emotions, the more dangerous and injurious they become.
So it becomes quite important to relieve your feelings about your relationship and discuss them with your partner-this will not only be good for your relationship, but also beneficial for your life in general

Diplomacy works, always

Even though your partner is someone who you will be spending a lot of time together with and you would prefer to be quite open and frank with each other..but being overtly frank and outright might not be a great solution to problems as well. Some issues,particularly sensitive one’s might need a little more careful handling.
Small things like saying “I told you so” can be quite injurious to the health of a relationship.

Love, love, love some more

The basic key to maintaining the love in a relationship,more than trust,honesty and commitment..is love itself!

It has the wonderful property of feeding itself and growing on itself. Thus, love is the most potent stimulus for the growth of more love. The more love you have,the more love you give. The more love you give,the more love you get.The more love you circulate,a stronger bond you share in your relationship.
