honesty
healthy sex. seriously.
Don’t have sex too soon.
I find that most fights I have with my boyfriend are created through a lack of communication.
Always be honest with each other and never get bored.
Try new things and go places all the time.
If you guys get bored in any way, it will take the spark away.
Just do what you are doing now . It must be working =] . Be yourself thats prety much it . =]
Be honest. Don’t hold anything in, but don’t nag.
no lies -communicate- be urslef thats what i do
HONESTY AND SPONTANEITY
The most important thing in a relationship is communication! Don’t assume the other person knows what you are thinking. Also you have to both be able to compromise on issues. Other than that, keep doing what you are doing! Good Luck!

Not taking the advice of YA members.
tell him ya dont wanna loose him!!^_^
1) talk…a lot.
2) listen
3) RESPECT
4) then talk some more.
Love moderately.
if you guys are having problems then you guys should spend more time togtther
kisses
sleep togethere like spend at each others houses
or like call or txt msg
or like
get to no each other
go out more
and get to no each otehr
honesty is a big part of a relationship, trust too, and of course love for each other, and it would help if you guys had some stuff in common and don’t ignore each other sometimes and don’t be afraid to tell him something that you dont like that he is doing..that goes back to honesty
-Julia
Dedication and commitment. But, don’t avoid problems because you want to be really nice. Disagreeing is fine as long as you talk productively and respect each others opinion.
Um, communicate openly, and don’t smother each other (take breaks or time apart a few nights a month). Be open and honest. Lieing only leads to other problems.
understanding that nobody is perfect is very good advice. also don’t try and change people. it’s easy to list the good things you like about somebody, but make a list ….MENTAL list!! of things you don’t, can you live with those things? if you can, then there ya go!
Trust is first and foremost in every relationship… if the trust doesn’t exist neither does the health in a relationship. Always be open and honest, that way there is never a question about anything. little surprises that never stop, and smiles are good for you too
don’t cheat, don’t be over dramtic on jealousy and be to suspicious could ruin everything, make sure he knwos u care, and always be supportive and help threw hard times dont just bail on him and
#1 BE HONEST
Honesty.
Make sure you can trust him.
My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 2 1/2 years and just being able to talk about anything and being honest has gotten us this far.
We’re both going off to college next year, so It’s kinda scary on how it’s gonna go, but with how strong we are now it’s sure to work out.
Being in a long lasting relationship requires both of you to be able to talk about your emotions and how you’re feeling anytime somethings wrong.
make sure that your relationship is not all physical. you have to have balance. be able to hang out like friends and do the physical stuff as well. in other words whenever you see each other don’t be all over each other. because that stuff should be special and not be done every time your together.
also keep it slow if you just started dating. don’t move to fast. in other words don’t be only dating for 3 weeks and then decide to give him a blow job or him eat you out etc.
because i know of someone who did that and lets just say it didn’t last very long because think about it. that’s all he really wanted to when it’s all done he’ll leave.
goodluck.
Well this is from a dudes perspective
1. You can call us every night but most of us will get bored after an hour.
2. Always be honest if you dont like something about your bf/gf tell them if they think your a jerk for it then they are gay.
3. Little things mater small presents every once and a while are special.
4. No montheversaries
5. You can have a 6 month and year though (if not married and in some cases 3 months)
Be honest, no matter what always try your best and don’t wait for little problems to resolve themselves because that’s when they turn into BIG problems. Don’t neglect sex, when guys are not getting laid they think there is some serious relationship problem and get worried even if you think its perfectly obvious that you’re just tired or busy, try to keep the spark alive
Always keep your friends because its not good to spend too much time together and when you move in together come up with a good chore schedule ahead of time.
Mutual respect for each others opinion, honesty.
Treat him as you want him to treat you. Act like a lady and he will treat you like a lady. Be sincere, be there for him not only in good times, but when he is having a bad day. Most import I think is give him space, sometimes we all need to be just by ourselves, no reflection on your partner, but don’t smother him..good luck.
Always remain true to yourself. View your boyfriend as a friend as well as a lover. Don’t jump the gun too soon just enjoy every day and let things happen naturally. Good luck!
Never give him any reason to lose trust in you. Don’t just tell each that you love each other, show each other whenever the chance arises. Stand behind each other know matter what the world sends in your direction.
I know it is cliche, but never go to bed angry. Make sure to talk through your feelings and really listen to each other. You shouldn’t snoop in your significant other’s personal stuff, but in the same way, if you are both being honest and faithful, then there should be no reason to hide anything away from one another. Don’t be too controlling, and don’t take your mate for granted. Don’t tell him it is okay to do something and then get mad at him when he does it. Don’t expect him to know why you are upset, you have to explain it to guys, they don’t understand subtlety.
Well if its going so well no need to worry
just keep doing what ur doing then keep trusting him, caring for him as much as u r, listen to him, be there for him, support him in his choices 
it should go well. Good luck!
Don’t try control what type of lifestyle he lives – clothes, friends, opinions. You’re not his mother and you will never take her place. Lord knows why some women try to do this though.
Have a sense of humor about the mundane details in life. Don’t take things too seriously and act as a dead weight in his life. As such, try to appreciate the smallest things he does for you.
Don’t be with each other constantly. Since my friend Brent has been dating his new girlfriend, I haven’t seen him in a month. Yet whenever we get together, all I see in his eyes is stress and fatigue. Why would anyone want to see a single person that often?
Maintain your independence! Don’t depend on him to drive you everywhere, pay for everything and be your emotional parachute. You are your own person and there’s nothing more unattractive than couples who say things like, “We don’t like ketchup with our fries.” Who cares if he likes or dislikes ketchup? This is YOU we’re talking about!
And above all else, I suggest strong, healthy doses of brutal honesty, integrity, kindness and respect.
Good luck!
1.) honesty.
2.) communication.
3.) personal space.
4.) trust
5.) compromise
i have been in a 2 year relationship and i would say these are crutial elements.
simple…. all you have to do is be truth full to him and be their when he needs it
Well, being honest and maybe telling him some secrets will let him know you trust him.
Never ever cheat, not saying you would, but that is an end-of a relationship.
Give him space and don’t be too clingy, you both have friends and it’s not as if you’re going to die without eachother so don’t go moody or huffy or whatever if he’d rather go out with a bunch of friends.
Be yourself Get to know yourself and allow both to grow together. Always share your emotions honestly, know what you expect, learn to compromise, learn to give and expect to be given, know your limits and your partner’s limits. Respect.
Yes, IF you ever decide to get married, make sure you discuss FIRST if you want kids. Who will do the checkbook and the bills. Etcetera!
(More couples fight about money than anything!). Whether you get married or not you have to know that you’re both on the same page with the more important things in life. If you have kids, will you work? Who’ll watch the kids? Who’ll pick up the kids from school?
I know you both are only dating now. But it’s the same idea. Talk about all the important stuff. And DON”T talk about old boyfriends or girlfriends. (Why would the other person want to know that? )
And be faithful to each other. Don’t look at anyone else. (At least, don’t make it obvious!)

You know how to treat fire? Treat your boyfriend the same way.
Let me explain. If you go too far from the fire, you get cold. If you come too close, you get burned. You have to maintain a certain optimum distance.
Don’t see him and talk to him so much that he’s saturated with you and wants space. Also, he will take you for granted. Might even need other excitement on the side.
Don’t grow so distant from him that he is starved for your for your company. Again, he might look for company elsewhere.
Other than that, everything else takes care of itself or you learn to take care of it as you go along.
My best wishes!
