I've been in a relationship for a bit more than a year, everything doing quite well so far, looking forward to advice to how to make it last.

We are already planning to a have a "date night" every two weeks to get away from the daily routine.

If you both recognise either one of you is not dealing with something and needs to emotionally unload or rant, the other person needs to ask the three H’s. Do you want to be heard, helped or hugged. This simple question really helps frame how the other person is feeling and allows the other to not add fuel to any flame. Most people’s initial reaction to hearing anything is rarely helpful so this really makes any response or action only a positive one.
