- When there is trust between two people in a relationship and neither does anything to break that trust, the bond is highly likely to turn into a marriage. Such a union built on unwavering trust will stand all the trials of time.
- People in a relationship from the outset should be clear about the financial aspect about their life and how it would impact their relationship. For a relationship and the marriage to prosper, money should not be the root on which the relationship stands. Nor should there be any frivolous spending.
- When two people are in a relationship they should prioritize each other. If even one doesn’t prioritize their partner then the relationship would not last long. The same goes for a marriage as well. Both partners to a marriage should prioritize their partner and not neglect them
- Be it in a relationship or a marriage, both the partners should respect the family members of the other. Respecting their family members reflects that you genuinely care about partner.
- Arguments, where there is rhyme or reason, should be avoided for they breed disharmony. Do not bring any argument of the past to life again. It would be detrimental to the relationship as well as the marriage.
- Be honest with your partner always. It could be anything that concerns either or both of you. Dishonesty would only bring ruin to the relationship or the marriage.
- If you find that your partner has made a mistake and has also confessed it to you, then you should not hold it against them. You should forgive your partner on the assurance that it would never be repeated.
