Trust makes you feel comfortable sharing your secret hopes and dreams. It gives you the freedom to share your heart with another. Without it, you basically have an untrustworthy friend.

When bad days or things happen, you need to be compassionate and do what you can to understand and help your partner. This works both ways. Compassion helps show each of you that the other cares.

Both of you should be happy for which at some stage you have to be compromise in the relationship or else it will simply dissolve into an endless argument. It's not that you have to give up everything, but compromise is necessary.

Communication is crucial and communication of love based is to happen not need  based.  Make time to talk about what's bothering you. Even if it causes an argument, at least you'll get it out in the open and be able to fix it. Don't hold everything in. Talk.

Happy relationships succeed because both people are selfless. They give to their partner just to see them smile. It's such a simple thing and when it goes both ways, it creates a balanced relationship.

Acceptance allows you to look past simple little flaws and focus on what's most important – the fact that the two of you are perfect for each other.

Loyalty means supporting your partner and standing by their side. When you're both loyal, you always know you have the support you need, no matter what happens.
