Having someone to share your life with is an amazing feeling. But the one thing you need to remember is that it's way too easy for things to get complicated in a relationship. And it's the extra effort that you make from the get go, which can help you make things right. So try working on these few things for a happy relationship.

1. Giving each other space

No matter how long you have been together, personal space is something everyone wants and deserves. Try spending time doing things you love, by yourself. Spending quality time with your partner is important, but spending quality time with yourself is even more important. It's healthy to enjoy your own company.

2. Connect emotionally

Talk to your partner everyday. It can even be a random conversation about what music you were listening to while getting ready in the morning. Make an effort to connect with them on a deeper level. It might feel strange in the beginning to share all of your hopes, dreams and ambitions but it's important to do that to form an emotional bond.

3. Be open about your career goals

Always be open about your future especially when it is about your career. Everyone has different goals and aspirations when it comes to their careers. It could be moving to a new city for a new job eventually or wanting to stay in the same city for the rest of your life. It's good to know where the other stands if you want your futures to align.

4. Set some boundaries

Every relationship needs boundaries. Discuss about what is off limits for your partner to comment on or something he might not like to talk about in too much detail (especially if it's a rather new relationship). It's always better to know what might upset your partner.
