the secrets to a good relationship

"Personally, I think communication is the key to a good relationship. If you can't communicate positively with your partner, it's really hard to get along and make the relationship last."
—Chris, 22, Dallas
"A good relationship is simply two people who share a deep connection. They need to have a lot of similarities. Being able to share emotions is the most important factor in a good relationship."
—Matt, 16, Hastings, NY
"Love, trust, and friendship are the three most important things in a successful relationship. You must love someone to the point where you no longer compare your significant other to someone else. This will lead to trust and friendship. You must also mesh and share interests. If you are not having fun in the relationship, then you are doing it wrong."
—Andrew, 20, Shrewsbury, NJ
"A successful relationship is about understanding. You shouldn't assume you know everything about your partner no matter how long you have been together. Finding new things, good or bad, keeps your relationship interesting and meaningful. That means you have to listen to get a real understanding of what your partner says. Just because you don't agree doesn't mean you have to fight. Compromise means more than just giving when you want to take; it means that sometimes you just have to let things go because you care about the other person."
—Peter, 21, Milwaukee
"I think what makes a good relationship is, first off, good communication. If you don't feel comfortable telling him or her about something, then why should he or she feel comfortable doing the same? Also, a sense of humor is important. Being able to tease and laugh at each other makes you appreciate each other even more."
—Justin, 21, Los Angeles
"A good relationship has the perfect mixture of alone time and group time. Every successful couple should be able to hang out alone and spend time with their friends."
—Carter, 19, Scarsdale, NY
"A lot of it has to do with the guy's willingness to settle down and dedicate himself to one lucky lady, rather than something the girl can or can't do to make him want to. If the guy doesn't see a future with the girl, why should he waste the effort of a relationship or dating when he can more than likely just move on to another hookup for a week or two?"
—Andrew, 20, Gettysburg, PA
