Each person's relationship will certainly have its own characteristics. If husband and wife always maintain good habits, their married life will become better and longer lasting.

1. Go to bed at the same time

Going to bed at the same time is a very simple and normal thing for a couple, for some people this seems meaningless. However, this is not a small thing, if you persevere, it will foster a sense of familiarity, comfort, safety, stability and trust in the relationship between husband and wife.

2. Regularly express your feelings for each other

Husband and wife should regularly express their feelings for each other, this will increase the bond and intimacy between the two. Don't waste the opportunity to express your love to your other half, don't think that your other half is a given so it is not necessary to express your feelings.

3. Give without expecting anything in return

Love should not be a matter of giving and receiving, and love should not be a matter of losing or gaining. If you want to give love to your partner, then just do it, don't set conditions or expectations for your love.

4. Communicate positively

In a marital relationship, there are many problems that cannot be solved simply because the two people cannot talk to each other openly and frankly. Therefore, it is extremely important for a couple to be able to talk to each other positively on a regular basis.

5. Be patient and understanding each other

Remind yourself often that everyone will make mistakes, so husband and wife need to be patient, tolerant and understanding of each other.

6. Listen when the other person talks

In a marital relationship, it is more important to listen to the other person than to talk about yourself endlessly. Whenever you are together, give your partner a safe space so that they can express themselves and feel comfortable talking to you about anything.

7. Maintain a personal life

Although married, husband and wife can still spend time on their own hobbies, interests and careers, reduce the pressure in the relationship by focusing on other things in life.

8. Be honest with each other

The only way for husband and wife to stand on the same page is for you to always be honest with each other, do not betray the trust that your spouse has in you, and always maintain sincerity.

9. Be humble

Couples who know how to be humble will admit their own imperfections and always have ways to improve the imperfections. The relationship between husband and wife is both to support each other and to help each other become more perfect.

10. Show Gratitude

Don’t let your significant other feel like they aren’t adding value to your life, even if they didn’t ask for it, you should affirm and be grateful for all the things they do for you. It’s always great to feel needed, appreciated, and appreciated – especially by someone you love.
