We all want to have the perfect relationship – and it turns out the secret might come down to one simple rule.

Reddit user ckernan2 shared the rule on a recent thread, which asked users to share the best relationship advice they had ever heard.

ckernan2 said it all came down to the easy-to-follow 2/2/2 rule.

He wrote:

It makes perfect sense, doesn’t it? Because as anyone who has ever been in a relationship will know, after the initial romance wears off, it’s pretty easy to fall into the trap of taking each other for granted and not making time for each other.

But knowing that you have special dates and getaways to look forward to can help to keep the spark alive, and to keep things fun and interesting.

Nice one.

For the record, other users on the Reddit thread also had some solid relationship advice.
