Don't Bring up the past
This is a huge, huge obstacle for me. I am the type of person that judges based on past behavior. In my relationship though, I've learned that I can't do that. This is definitely the top relationship advice tip for me and a definite don't!

Do Compliment Each Other
When you have been with your spouse for a really long time, it's hard to remember to compliment one another. Say that she's beautiful, let him know how much he means to you. Trust me, it really makes a huge difference!

Don't Name Call in a Fight
I am so guilty of getting down and dirty when the right mood strikes me ('bout once a month – yanno what I'm talking about ladies), but that doesn't mean it's right. I had to learn to follow my own relationship advice and not fight dirty but rather be respectful. Keep the name calling out of a fight ladies, it's mean and really doesn't do you justice.

Do Kiss – Often
Again, if you've been in a relationship for a while, you probably don't swap spit as much as you should. Kiss your boyfriend. Kiss your girlfriend guys. It will make your relationship better and you'll remember how great it was in the beginning!

Don't Forget the Passion
I seriously see this a lot in relationships. Once the relationship is out of the honeymoon phase, the passion quickly becomes forgotten. Ladies, don't let this happen! This is one of the biggest relationship advice tips that you should follow – after all, who wants to be in a passionless relationship?

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.
Do Listen to Each Other
This is a huge DO. If you don't listen to your boyfriend – how are you going to really understand what he wants or needs? I don't mean half listen either, I mean – actively listen to your partner.

Don't Take Each Other for Granted
Finally ladies, the last relationship advice tip is don't take one another for granted. Don't think that just because you have been together for a while, you'll always be together. You want to live every day like it's your last with your partner.
I know I am truly guilty of one or more of these relationship advice tips, but I'm working on it. If you are in a relationship, maybe you should take some of these relationship advice tips to heart and really work on your relationship. What other dos and don'ts can you ladies think of? Come on, share with me!
