unspoken rules of relationship:
1. Don't talk about past relationships, they are exactly that, the PAST.
2. Remember it's a relationship, not marriage.
3. Spend within your means, big elaborate gifts always need to be topped.
4. Don't try to change things about your significant other, accept them for who they are and what they are. except for bad behavior (cheating, hitting, verbal abuse), this should never be tolerated.
5. Give each other space sometimes, it's not healthy to be with each other 24/7. There is a time for that and it's called marriage.
6. Don't piss off the parents, they have more influence than you think.
7. respect each other.
8. Get over fights and arguments as quickly as you can, life is too short to be pissed off.
9.Talk and listen. an open relationship is a healthy relationship.
10. Express your feelings for each other daily. A loveless relationship is stressful and soul crushing. everyone needs to feel loved.
