Your friends aren't part of your relationship

This is one rule that can't be stressed enough. We all love to tell our friends every time our S.O. pisses us off or does something that we weren't too happy about, but resist the urge. After the dust settles and the two of you have moved on it's possible that your friends may still be holding the torch. The last thing you want is for your inner circle to hate your boyfriend/girlfriend because of things you've said about them while you were upset. Any problems you have with your S.O. are to be discussed with them only, so zip it.
