- Become each other's friend. It is said that relationships that started out as friendship usually last longer.
- Do things together. Play, do chores together, shop together, sport, travel and even cry.
- Be honest with each other. Communication plays a key role in every type of relationship. Tell each other exactly how you feel about things that bother you. Also do not jump to the conclusion that you are being attacked or get too defensive when your partner shares things he/she doesn't like about you.
- Do not fight fire with fire. If your partner is upset about something. Give him time to steam off then you make your comment. Trying to make him the bad guy at all times do not work it only cause more problem.
- Admit when you are wrong and Apologize. Saying 'I am sorry' is kind of hard to do in the beginning(speaking from experience) but once you start practicing it you will realize that it gets easier and it makes life easier too in your relation.
- Try to empathize- or put yourself in your partner's shoes to see how he/she is feeling and then see how you would feel in that same situation and respond to him how you wtould have liked him to response to you.
- Learn to forgive and forget - This isn't always easy but if you try to move forward after an argument has been resolved it will make things much easier for you in the future. Holding a grudge only brings more bitterness and despise in your love life.
- Kiss and Make up. This is the easiest part and am sure you know just how to do that.
I have tried those tips myself and they do work, but if you have another tip please feel free to share with us.

All good suggestions, particularly #1. I think friendship is the key. If that's present, all the rest will follow.
Yes ;i must say i agree with the above tips , but somtimes it is hard when only one person is willing to do all the above.... if a balance is not there the arguments will still be at a high, becuase one person will somtimes get tired of always compromising.
Sometimes it is so frigging hard to avoid arguments. Sometimes i just want to have a conversation with my partner but most of the times it leads to an argument because he may not want to talk about what i want to talk about.
and when i start feeling like you dont care i will in turn get miserable and and say stuff to even stir up the argument, cause i hate when i hear you out and you dont hear me out. It may not be the right approach but we are all human... argument good sometimes yah it will draw out people...
Good advice you have there, I agree with what anxious is trying to mention. Relationship is all about to give and take to make the relationship work.
