(Based on the Experiences of 5.5 Relationships)
1.
Never compromise your beliefs/goals for your
S.O.
2.
Never hold onto a relationship in which you’ll
be over 100 miles apart.
3.
Never introduce an S.O. to your extended family
until a marriage proposal has been made; it will either scare your S.O. away or
give your S.O. the impression that your relationship is more serious than you
may anticipate.
4. Never jump into a relationship when you still
harbor feelings for an ex.
5. Never go back to an ex who hurt you; you’re
giving him/her permission to do it again.
6. Never assume you’re in a relationship; third
base doesn’t mean a thing.
7.
Never make “your song” a Top 40; if you break
up, you’ll hear that shit everywhere.
8.
Never go to bed angry.
9.
Never give a gift you might want back.
10.
Never make promises you don’t intend to keep.
11. Never give
up on someone who makes you genuinely happy, no matter what.
12. Gibbs’s Rule: Never date a coworker.
