The lessons learned from past relationships are great for guiding your next one. Every relationship teaches a lesson (or two or three) and we take those lessons into our next relationship. Use the lessons learned from past relationships to make your new one as perfect as it can be. Here's how.

1. Don’t Rush the Physical Aspect
This is the most important of the lessons learned from past relationships, and that’s why it deserves first place on this list. Becoming too physical with someone early on in the relationship confuses things. You might stop getting to know each other on an emotional level. You might even get to the point where you’re not sure if there’s any other reason you’re in the relationship.
2. Don’t Get Bored Easily
In line with the previous point, rushing into the physical aspect of a relationship can get you bored easily because all the passion dies out quickly. However, there is more than one way to become bored. You can become emotionally bored as well, if you fail to have deep, meaningful conversations. Make sure to keep things interesting.
3. Don’t Change Halfway through the Relationship
One of the main reasons relationships fail is because people pretend to be someone they’re not when the relationship starts. As we get more comfortable with the person we’re with, we start to revert back into our normal selves. While there’s nothing wrong with who we are intrinsically, it may not be the perfect match to the person you’re with. This is why it’s so important to be yourself and not change and confuse the person you’re with.
4. Communicate a Lot
You may think that it counts as communication to call each other by pet names and talk about how great the other person looked on the last date. But these are conversation topics that should be few and far between. At least kept to a minimum. Prevalent conversation topics should include talking about your views on life and love and talking about the future.
If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.
5. Stop Comparing
Chances are this is not your first relationship. That means it’s incredibly important for you to treat this relationship as a sole entity, not related to anything that happened in the past. Don’t bring up a past relationship to the person you’re with, and don’t think about it yourself. It’s better if what happened in the past stays in the past.
