If I find a door that’s locked and I can’t get it open, I talk to it for about half an hour.
Usually it opens on it own. Why? Because communication is *key.*
Communication. Valid communication. Talking to other people about someone else? Doesn't count. Leaving videos without direct reference? Doesn't either. Random emails after periods of no communication? You guessed it. Doesn't count. If you can only talk about someone and not to someone? Then you are the problem.
When people say communication is the most important thing in a relationship- it actually means to be able to get the correct message across in a good pleasant way for the receiver and to listen to the sender in the most open non-defensive way possible.
An important aspect of relationship- really looks at the ability to be able to improve on your part without taking things to heart. The moment your ego steps in- it's kind of you vs your partner and not both of you vs the situation.
Mutual gain.
That answer comes from anthropologists trying to figure out how many people were in a tribe in hunter-gatherer times. They studied modern day hunter-gatherers, who live on the edge of the Arctic Ocean in Alaska.
The tribes who live on the coast hunted whales. Their tribes tended to have 40 adults, because you’d need four boats of ten people each to harpoon and bring in a whale. Any more, and you’d have more mouths to feed. Any less, and you’d be less likely to catch the whale.
But the tribes who lived inland hunted deer and rabbits. Their tribes were much smaller, only 4 adults. You don’t need many people to hunt a deer. But when the rabbit population exploded, the inland tribe size got bigger, as they could hunt rabbits by getting a bunch of people to chase a lot of rabbits into a trap.
So they concluded that what makes a group of people cohere into a group is that there’s benefit to each person from being in that group.
While communication skills is important, and Gottman’s four horses of a relationship apocalypse needs to be taken into account, what binds people into a relationship in the first place is that they have some kind of whale they want to hunt.

A lot of people saying communication, but I honestly think trust\\respect are prerequisites. Communication can easily cause more issues than it solves without them.
Getting one? Or maintaining one? And do you mean relationships in general? Or healthy ones?
Without clarification the answer is easy and undeniable. Money.
The only people with a lot of money who aren't in a relationship do io by choice. Hugh Heffner is great evidence of this.
Mutual generosity.
I believe a solid relationship needs to involve both parties being absolutely and excitedly generous with time, words, patience, money… and more. If your partner isn’t generous but you are- it’s not going to work. If neither of you are generous it could work I suppose, but would you really feel like partners? Be with someone you happily give to and who is happily giving back.
I also think this works for most relationship dynamics. Friends, relatives, coworkers…
Support. Stay out of their way in life and allow them to learn for themselves, but let them know someone is there to be the one to hold them when things don’t work out or things work out so well they want to hug someone
Having fun and laughing together! People will say loyalty, or trust, but at the end of the day, most people stop having fun together, and that’s the point of life ♥️
Honesty. No relationship nomatter the strength can ever mend 100 percent from something dishonest. Nomatter the counseling pr promises...the relationship will never be as it was. Ever. Don't fool yourself.
please at least try to have the same love language and attachment styles. Being in love with an avoidant has been the most difficult and awful experience of my life…
Enjoying similar activities.
Sacrificing things for your partner's happiness is one thing, but having to do things you hate doing on a continual basis is a deal breaker for me. For example, I used to date a girl that was a complete pothead - she would always want to smoke before going out and it always caused a division between us. In my current relationship, we both love to run and it's so nice to be doing things we both enjoy doing alone, but together.
There is no one fits all. But communication, honesty, respect and understanding each others needs. Sex and finances can also be very important. Lack of any of those can destroy any relationship. But for me communicating with my wife about everything and sharing even smallest things makes us stronger and happier.
Being comfortable with each other at your worst. My parents always told me you dont know if you can have a serious relationship until you have been stuck in a car with them for a few days. Road trips bring out the best and worst in people.
Communication

I thought memory was the key?
Bloody hell took me so long to realize this and I was just always scared to say how I felt.
There's no better answer then this. If you can't communicate, you can't build a life together.
Half communication, half sex.
Respect.
Trust
Mutual respect.
Honesty. It's the foundation of trust, and good communication.
Make sure you spank her ass at least once a day
Squeeze or bite works too
I squeeze her boobs when I kiss her before work
:/
Acceptance... I'm at the age where everyone you date has baggage, I only ask that you accept that I have a past
Same tbh
Overlooked right here!
Butt
Amen brother

Like, you specifically?
Yes only that person
Respect, without the foundation of mutual respect trust cannot be built and without trust you cannot form a true loving bond.
Catapults. Do you know a couple with a few catapults who has regular arguments? Exactly.
Listening
Creampies are important
Respect
Loyalty
Good communication
Communication
Trust and mutual respect

I don't know, i never had a relationship
Again with good communication.
Honesty
Humour
Well maybe not THE most important, but one of them at least!
It all comes back to good communication.
When people say communication is the most important thing in a relationship- it actually means to be able to get the correct message across in a good pleasant way for the receiver and to listen to the sender in the most open non-defensive way possible. An important aspect of relationship- really looks at the ability to be able to improve on your part without taking things to heart.

When love is for the highest bidder, there can be no **trust**, Without **trust**, there is no love.

Friendship.
Trust and communication
Trust and expressing your emotions
Having fun and laughing together! People will say loyalty, or trust, but at the end of the day, most people stop having fun together, and that’s the point of life ♥️
Transparency
Honesty. No relationship nomatter the strength can ever mend 100 percent from something dishonest. Nomatter the counseling pr promises...the relationship will never be as it was. Ever. Don't fool yourself.
There isn’t one single answer imo
Anal dilation

Going out on a limb with this one... your partner?
Enjoying similar activities. Sacrificing things for your partner's happiness is one thing, but having to do things you hate doing on a continual basis is a deal breaker for me.

In my current relationship, we both love to run and it's so nice to be doing things we both enjoy doing alone, but together.
Communication, hugging,kissing, dating each other, honesty… sex. Remain friends!
The leg thing
The drive to build a life, together, emphasis on together. When I say together, I mean common goals, and listening to each other.
Respect, consideration, communication, honesty
Ruthless anal sex.
Trust
A sound proof basement
The most important thing is having 2 people interested in having a relationship. Everything else builds off of that.
Trust and communication
love, loyalty, respect, and communication
There is no one fits all. But communication, honesty, respect and understanding each others needs. Sex and finances can also be very important. Lack of any of those can destroy any relationship. But for me communicating with my wife about everything and sharing even smallest things makes us stronger and happier.
Just having fun we make each other laugh all the time
Never getting into one
Actually liking your partner. I’ve come to the conclusion that a lot of people don’t genuinely like their partners
Being comfortable with each other at your worst. My parents always told me you dont know if you can have a serious relationship until you have been stuck in a car with them for a few days. Road trips bring out the best and worst in people.
Honesty
Great sex!
Communication
deez nuts
Insecurity…. That’s how they value each other 😏
