Dating is hard. You had to put alot of effort. you have to care even when the person is not at their best. You have to treat everyday as Valentines Day not only when it is the day. You have to support each other. Both have to have goals that they help each other with. You have to cover for each other's flaws. You have to approach them in a unique way. Create memories with each other not just to capture them for social media. Travel together. consider each other's point of view.
