[QUOTE="stellabella1, post: 2348754, member: 812657"] I'm in a long term relationship currently. My only thoughts as to why it has been so successful thus far is because of how we fight. We fight fair and have established rules for our arguments (no low blows, no bringing up the past, listen to the other person's views, no hitting, give space if needed, never mention divorce/breaking up, be honest, no yelling, no going to sleep angry). During an argument, we try to talk normally and say 'honey' a lot. We try to make each other laugh after we've talked it out. Sometimes I discover that I'm not really angry with the other person, but angry and stressed about something else in my life. Relationships take a lot of work, but they're so worth it when you get it working just right. Try reading, "The Love Dare." It really helped our relationship. [/QUOTE]
