你 haven't yet noticed the other person's flaws and it's as if the sun rises and sets with this new 爱情 in your life. Unfortunately, this phase doesn't last. The newness eventually wears off as reality sets in. The good news is that with the right mindset and attitude, 你 can keep the magic in your relationship.

1. Decide that 你 are going to have happy relationship. Anything that 你 ever do will begins with a thought. Visualize yourself and your partner in a happy and healthy relationship.

2. Handle conflict in a loving way. Every couple has disagreements. The way 你 handle them will help determine the success of your relationship. Don't insist on being right. Instead, focus on understanding your partner's point of view and be a good listener. This will help keep your partner from becoming defensive and he 或者 she will appreciate being heard.

3. Be responsible for your own happiness. Understand that it's not your partner's job to make 你 happy. In the early stages of your relationship, your partner may feel flattered to know that 你 depend on him 或者 her for fulfillment, but after a while, they will feel drained and suffocated. True happiness comes from within. Be your own 来源 of happiness and that will make your relationship much sweeter.

4. Don't be consumed 由 jealousy. This can do serious damage to a relationship. The poet Maya Angelou once 说 that jealousy is like salt. In small amounts, it can add spice to a relationship but too much is unhealthy.

5. Don't take your partner for granted. Remind yourself why 你 fell in 爱情 with this person in the first place. Focus on your partner's positive attributes and remember that no one is perfect.
