One of the most common questions I hear is, "How do we make our relationship work?" The answers are complicated and varied but here are 5 things that should be taken into consideration.1. Manners. "Please," "thank you" and "you're welcome," can go a long way in helping your partner remember that you respect and love him and don't take him for granted.

2. Play Together. Find a sport or hobby that you both love and make it a priority in your relationship. Find something you enjoy doing together and do it more often
3. Fight like adults. In order to have productive arguments, keep these rules in mind: Don't call your spouse names. When things get really tough, take a break from the argument. Let the other person finish his/her sentences. Don't initiate a discussion when you're angry.
4. Two heads are better than one. Being in a relationship basically means you've made a merger; you've not only joined assets but inherited the other's problems as well. Rather than looking at his problems as merely his own, tackle them together. For example, if he's gaining weight, rather than pushing him to diet on his own, do it together.
5. Communicate! Talking out the tough subjects — money, religion, fidelity, raising kids —will not be the most fun you've had, but it'll be valuable.
