It goes something like this: You tie the knot. You honeymoon in a super romantic destination and make love until one of you realizes you can't live on minibar food alone. You head home, pack up your newly purchased minivan, move to some suburban town your friends refuse to visit and she trades in her La Perla underwear for the cotton ones that come 10 in a pack. By the time the kids come, you start thinking of things like sex and conversation as annoyances that interfere with sleep time. Before you know it, you wake up in bed one morning not knowing the stranger lying next to you.
Here are some tips to help you and your partner keep the honeymoon feeling, well beyond the honeymoon:

Zac Efron's well-publicized condom drop on the red carpet sparked Matt Lauer to comment, "Better to be safe than sorry, right?" Zac chuckled, "That's a great message to add to the many messages in the film."

Well, it turns out that "better to be safe than sorry" is a great message that applies not just to condoms, but also to relationships in general. Here are three times when it really IS better to be safe than sorry:

1. You suspect that your partner is cheating.

Barring a traumatic past relationship, people want to trust their partners. So if you keep having that nagging feeling that he's cheating, it's better to look into the possibility than to turn a blind eye. Hopefully, your worry is unfounded.

Consider the words of Ronald Reagan when discussing his relationship with the Soviet Union:

Whether you're on a first date or in a new relationship, the things you say can play a huge role in finding and keeping love. They say that "actions speak louder than words," but we're here to tell you that sometimes certain phrases can destroy your love life before it even begins. Check out these 10 expressions you should avoid when you're looking for Cupid's arrow to hit your target:

1. My biological clock is ticking.

Okay, we know women have to think about time when it comes to having a baby, but asking your new beau what day you should schedule a visit to the OBGYN together is just crazy. Let time run its course, and then the two of you can begin to talk about children.

For many people who seek lasting relationships, the first date isn't the big issue. In truth, the actual challenge is to use that first date as a litmus test for whether to move forward or not. You can't hope to follow in the footsteps of Kyra Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon or Sarah Jessica Parker and Mathew Broderick directly after the first cocktail. However, as these celebrities would surely tell you, a lengthy partnership is rooted in loyalty and consistency. Once you get past that initial encounter, you may be ready to take steps towards a lasting and meaningful relationship. Here's how to go about it, step by step:
