Partnership doesn't happen by accident. It is built on shared values, on communication, on love and decisions.
Every couple, no matter how perfect, faces difficult times. The difference between those who stay together and those who break up is purely a matter of choice. Deciding that you want to be together.
When both partners decide they want to be together, they will go through all the difficulties together and follow some unwritten rules along the way.
Let's look at some of them.
1. Don't hide your phone or computer password.
2. Listen to music you both enjoy in the car.
3. They share food, even if they only ordered a small portion.
4. You wait for your partner to come home to watch a show or a movie like you do every Friday night.
5. Pick a side of the bed and don't even think about asking to switch.
6. You are going to an event or a trip that your partner is very excited about, even though you are not interested in that matter at all.
7. You ask their permission before eating the leftovers in the fridge that you know they saved.
8. After shaving or cutting hair, clean the bathtub or sink to avoid clogging the drain.
9. Never give out your number to a stranger.
10. Consult them before making any major life decisions.
