When you fall in love, your dream is for that love to last forever. There’s nothing worse than falling head over heels for someone, only to end up heartbroken and confused about what went wrong, endlessly wondering where you went wrong and how to go back to how things used to be.

You may wonder:
So what ARE the secrets of couples that stay together? What are hacks I need to learn in order to stop remaining heartbroken? Why is my relationships always short-lived? How do people's relationships stay so strong for so long? Here the tips go:

Remember to kiss hello and goodbye EVERY TIME

How sweet is it when he has to go to work extra early – but still stops by the bed to kiss you goodbye trying not to wake you up because he can’t help wanting to do it?

That little bit of extra intimate contact as you say goodbye at the beginning of the day and hello at the end goes a long way, and keeps the flame of intimacy burning strong in your relationship.


Say “I love you” without restraint

When it comes to the 3 little words, more is always better than less. This is one phrase you can’t say too much to each other. When he texts or calls you, respond to him (and hold him to the same standard)

No one likes to wait around for their significant other to text or call back. Prompt replies should be the standard, not the exception, and your priority should be keeping in touch with your partner.

Don’t make fun of each other

Even if you’re “just joking”, imagine how he’d feel if he heard you. The most important word to keep in mind here is respect – and keeping the respect in your relationship is crucial to it surviving.

Understand that every relationship comes with responsibilities

You’re not going to want to do the same thing as your partner ALL the time. Sometimes, that means doing things you really don’t want to do – like chores, or errands, or going to his stupid work party – just because you know it makes him happy.

Treat each other’s families like, well, family

Becoming bigger and bigger parts of each other’s lives is all about sharing more and more – and what better thing to share than family? If his family knows you think of them as your family too – and vice versa – it strengthens the bonds of your relationship even more.

Surprise random gifts mean a lot

Sometimes, this comes down to knowing your partner’s tastes – and exactly what’s going to put a smile on his face at the end of the day. If you know he LOVES double stuf mint oreos and you bring him home a bag, he knows that he was on your mind all day – and it makes him feel loved.


Clear time in the schedule to just spend time with each other

Sometimes, this means saying no to plans you would have otherwise attended – because you and the hubby haven’t had some time to yourselves in too long and you need a night of downtime.

Spending your free time just being together can do wonders for the health of a relationship..

Double dates aren’t always the best

There’s nothing better than finding another couple where things just click – you and your partner each like both halves of the other couple, and they feel the same about you. But if things aren’t clicking, and your partner doesn’t like your best friend’s BF, it’s OK to skip the double date rather than force things.

Help each other out when you get sick

Sometimes you’re going to get sick, and sometimes your partner is going to come down with something.

When that happens, be ready to head to the grocery store to get them comfort food, or the pharmacy to get them nose drops, even if it means cancelling plans for the night. They need you – now’s your time to shine.
