It is easy to get into a relationship but difficult to stay there. Attraction and love might happen to you instantly, but responsibility, understanding, trust and the ability to accommodate come only as the relationship matures. And not all the relationships reach that stage of maturity.
But if you want your relationship to attain maturity and be an everlasting one, then you need to have some rules in the relationship. They need not be written on a paper and hung on the wall, but followed sincerely. We explain all the rules one should have in a relationship.
* Love with no conditions whatsoever:Love cannot have conditions. It becomes all too materialistic when “only ifs” seep into your relationship.You cannot have conditions like you can only love if your partner earns more than you, if he buys you gifts every month, if she looks beautiful always.
* Your relationship is your priorityMake your relationship your topmost priority. Invest time and effort in your relationship and constantly strive to make it better.
* Keep your communication channel always openWithout communication, you can drift apart in your relationship. Let your communication be open and honest. No matter how busy or tired you are, don’t let that block your communication.
* Hug as often as you canInclude it in your daily routine and make your hugs last longer. Hugging increases the oxytocin (the love hormone) levels and reduces cortisol ( the stress hormone).
* Have sex generouslyDon’t schedule sex, let it be impromptu. That’s when it becomes exciting and the intimacy between you grows. Don’t let any excuses come in your way when it comes to having sex.
