However,
if you want to build a long-lasting relationship,
you should take the following advice.
First, never go too fast.
In the beginning,
it s easy to do or say too much for a new relationship.
This can lead to your getting hurt,
especially if things don t turn out as you d expected.
Second, be yourself.
Be honest about who you are.
Act naturally and don t pretend to be something or somebody you re not.
Third, don t have high expectations.
Nobody is perfect,
including your new flame.
Last but not least,
you re not only a couple,
you re also two individuals.
Keep some of your own time, activities, and most importantly friends.
Never be exclusive!
