Starting and continuing a relationship is one of the hardest things in life, so you might get exhausted and frustrated from time to time. I am sure you all had moments when you could not understand your partner or even yourself in your relationship. However, you should always remember why you are in this relationship and what this relationship gives you. To continue your relationship, you and your partner must make sacrifices and tolerate each other if necessary. It does not mean you need to put your priorities aside. On the contrary, it means you need to learn how to keep your priorities and act together without giving up any of them. A long-term relationship is not easy to build, so both of you need to work on it willingly. Every long-term relationship has a secret ingredient that keeps itself alive and vivid. You can learn this secret through your experiences in time, or you can have some advice and save quite a lot of time. If your time is valuable, here is some precious relationship advice from celebrities. You can consult them instead of learning it the hard way.
"I have this best friend who understands me and helps me through all my tough experiences, and vice versa, you know? It just feels like this is it for me. I used to think, 'Well, can you really have it all?' The truth, the excitement, and the passion? Now I know you can. The best thing about marriage is the amount of growth you have because you can no longer hide from your fears and insecurities. There's someone right there calling you out on your flaws and building you up when you need the support. If you are with the right person, it brings out the best version of you." (source, source)
"You have to have fun together. We've got three beautiful children together which our whole time is making them happy and making sure they're healthy and good so most of our time is spent on them. But we have to also spend time together as a couple and that's always important." (source)
"If you're laying in bed next to someone who really doesn't make you feel like the goddess that you are, you need to rediscover what it is that you truly want and need." (source)
"When we're busy, we agree to mutually ignore each other, not completely, but neither of us gets mad when the other doesn't text back or call. Life's super-busy. Obviously, you know what they're doing, and you trust them. We're so young that it would almost be like if we lived in the same city, what would happen? We'd be living together. At least this way he's in the same boat as I am: We can both go out and have our own lives and know that we have each other." (source)
“Do you know how you tell real love? It’s when someone else’s interest trumps your own. I like to put it that way: trumps your own. Love of somebody else—of family, of your kids—becomes the most important, most worthwhile thing in your life. It’s what you foster and protect.” “I have this best friend who understands me and helps me through all my tough experiences, and vice versa, you know? It just feels like this is it for me. I used to think, ‘Well, can you really have it all? The truth, the excitement, and the passion?' Now I know you can.” (source)
“I think it’s healthy for everyone to go a few years without dating, just because you need to get to know who you are, and I’ve done more thinking and examining and figuring out how to cope with things on my own than I would have if I had been focusing on someone else’s emotions and someone else’s schedule. It’s been really good.” "I think it's healthy for everyone to go a few years without dating, just because you need to get to know who you are.

"People get in fights because they don't communicate because you don't want to hurt the other person. If you do want to hurt the other person, then shame on you – you're an asshole. My wife and I do not argue. We communicate. We talk. But we've never fought in our entire relationship." (source)
"You have to talk about all the issues that arise, even the smallest things. You have to listen to your partner’s problems, suggestions, and advice, and accept that you’re not always right. The conversation is the key to a successful marriage." (source)
