Last time, we talked about the real work behind relationships — not just the forehead kisses and matching hoodies, but the wisdom that keeps love strong.
Well, let’s keep it going because there’s more to learn, Queen. 🧠✨
This is the stuff people in 20, 30, 40+ year relationships talk about — and lessons I’ve picked up along the way too.
Let’s dive into Part Two of the unwritten rules that can seriously strengthen your bond:
7. Think About How Your Actions Affect Your Partner 🤔
Before you react or act a certain way, pause and consider: Would this hurt or help the love we’re building?
Put yourself in their shoes. Be patient, empathetic, and considerate — even (and especially) on the hard days.
8. Never Stop Dating Each Other ❤️
Complacency is lethal. Just because you have them doesn’t mean you stop being curious about who they are.
Keep asking questions. Keep surprising them. Keep choosing them daily.
9. Listen First, Fix Later 👂
When your partner opens up about an issue, listen without being defensive.
A good trick? Ask:
“Babe, do you want advice, or do you just need me to listen?”
Sometimes they just need a safe space, not solutions.
10. Stay Kind, Even When You’re Mad 😤➡️💖
It’s easy to snap when you’re frustrated — but remember, kindness isn’t just for the good days.
The real test of love is how you treat them when they’re getting on your last nerve. 😂 Stay kind with your words, your tone, and your actions.
11. Compliment More Than You Criticize 🌸
It’s easy to point out flaws, but don’t let criticism outweigh appreciation.
Thank them. Praise them. Notice the little things they do for you. Gratitude grows love.
12. Address Disrespect and Bad Habits Early 🛑
What you tolerate is what will continue.
Don’t encourage behavior that hurts you — and don’t start doing things you can’t maintain long-term. Set the standard early with love and firmness.
Bonus: 13. Don’t Make Permanent Decisions on Temporary Emotions ⏳
Before you send that angry text, block them, pack your bags, or slam the door — pause.
Step away from the heat of the moment, breathe, and come back with a clear head.
Temporary feelings can create permanent damage if you’re not careful.
Woman to Woman: Remember Queen 👑
At the end of the day, relationships aren’t just about love — they’re about wisdom, patience, and daily choice.
It’s not about being perfect; it’s about being intentional.
Protect your love. Water it. Build it. Choose it.
