Wait... you're asking this on a forum dedicated to Naruto? Can't say that's the best of ideas.

Honesty, communication, respect, understanding, loyalty and love help mold a great relationship.
8 years strong for me this year so yeah. It's hard work and requires effort. LOTS of effort.

If lots of effort is required in your relationship, then it doesn't speak to fondly of said relationship.

You wanna be the very best, like no one ever was. To catch her is your real, to train her is your cause.

the fact that you're this determined to do well and make her happy is good, try and keep it that way, just make sure you 'get' her and don't scare her off.

It's only been a week right? So why worry? Just spend time with her and get to know her. Unless you haven't gotten laid yet. Get on that

It takes "time" to gain a "strong" relationship.. since it takes time to build trust and be honest with each other

Effort meaning not slacking off and taking one another for granted. It's give and take.
My relationship is fantastic bcuz of these reasons I've listed.

Love, trust, loyalty, respect. Those are the basic four.

As much as possible, follow through what you said you would do. If you promised her to fix her car or setup her entertainment system or walk her dog, then by all means try your best to accomplish it. You'd be surprised how wonderful and sharp a woman's memory is, especially if she pays close attention to you. Staying true to your words is probably one of the very first brick you establish to get yourself into a foundation you want to.

Passive aggressiveness is off-putting and to a certain extent a form of manipulation, and it gets the girl anxious and doubting and it hurts her. It is not a healthy coping mechanism, and your woman may see it as a sign of emotional unavailability.

Learn and establish your boundaries. Respect hers too. Just because your in a relationship doesn't mean you can't have them.

Affirmation is everything. A genuine compliment here and there, an encouragement to boost her morale, a simple show of gratitude would do wonders.

always be nice no matter how pissed you are..
always be faithfull no matter how big the temptation may be
always care for her, no matter how tired you feel
always let her know how much she is for you
always be honest


and last but not least...try having lots of ***. i know how that sounds but good *** is very important in most relationships and helps building trust and love for each other^^
Do not do things. He's basically telling you to kiss her ass.

EDIT:Do some of them.
Don't listen to cheesy shit like "If you can't take me at my worst, you don't deserve me at my best". It takes two to tango. You love her, she loves you, you guys listen to each other. Fights are normal and don't always mean that you aren't right for each other.

You have to respect her as a woman with needs and she has to respect you as a man with needs. Not sexual per se, but for instance my ol' lady knows that I need a Saturday night out with the guys at the bar, not to interrupt when I'm playing multiplayer etc. Guys are more solitary, so we need time alone.

Likewise I know that my ol' lady likes to talk and has her "monthly" time where *maybe* small allowances (small ones, really) may be made.

Do not treat her like a princess ALL THE TIME. Treat her like a princess on good occasions. Make her feel special, but sometimes women prefer to be independent and doing too much takes that away.

Communication is important. Make sure when things upset you you let her know. When doing this though, keep in mind, "time and place". If you are pissed about something, and your lady is pissed about something else, if you can hold off until a better time to talk about it, do so. But know that you have to talk about it later. Sometimes, when people are vulnerable, putting them in a anxious position will not work in their favor.
This guy puts it best. Relationships are complicated things, but you shouldn't put a goal like trying to stay with somebody over a year on a relationship, because that's not what a relationship should be about. Your looking at it the wrong way. After being together for a while you'll start to understand everything about one another. Sometimes you can even say that you know your significant other better than you know yourself.

Just be honest with her about the most important things, it's okay to tell white lies everyonce in a while though. So when people keep saying honesty don't take that too literal. Trust me she will tell you white lies as well.

Don't be too needy, sometimes it's best to emotionally detatch yourself from certain situations, because Women like men who are manly, but that doesn't mean hold it all in. Let the important stuff out.

Don't ever put your women on a pedestal though. If you do this they'll always expect this behaviour of you, and this can cause future complications when your no longer in the "puppy love" stage.

One thing that has put a strain on my 6 year relationship is falling into a pattern of things. So it's good to try new things. Be spontaneous and adventurous. Don't just do the old fashioned dinner, and a movie date. Though these are good sometimes, it's always great to show her that you care by planning something different.

Make sure you treat each other as equals. Don't ever let one person give more than the other, or take more than the other. You both should put effort into the relationship. If one person is putting in all the effort, than this is a sign that the other doesn't care enough, and you probably shouldn't be together.

If you ever feel, and know that your no longer in love, and you truly know that there's nothing you can do to fall back in love than don't lead that significant other on. You've got to remember that life is short, and by leading that other person on, you're wasting their precious time. If your no longer in love be blunt with them and tell them.

Learn each other truly and accept one another with love. It's tough though but that's the key to a long relationship.

by being the best version of yourself, by being persistent on what you want, and by being manly and take charge in the relationship.
