Important things in relationship

Happened to bump into this web indicating some important things in a relationship, namely...
1. Trust
2. Communication
3. Honesty
4. Spaces
5. Respect

Wondering which one is most important???

Personally, I would think in any relationship trust & communication should comes out top. It is important to build and maintain a FRIENDSHIP in your relationship and that you give your partner the benefit of the doubt when times are tough... namely TRUST! Learn to understand each other, know each other and know what makes your partner happy... these can only be known through communication.

I went a bit further to see some interesting comments...
What Men need to Know: The Woman's Point of View,
1. The most important thing is being sensitive and romantic in your words and action. Please don't fake your emotions and say things you don't mean.
2. Please listen to what she is saying. Most of the men never try to know what a woman wants because they never listen attentively. Don't take your girl for granted.
3. DO build her trust by being faithful and truthful, and always "being there."
4. Spend time together, cuddling, kissing and learn to enjoy foreplay and learn about her body and erogenous zones instead of jumping to the real thing.

And next... What Women need to know: The Man's Point of View,
1. Do take the initiative instead of expecting him to be the one to initiative first always.
2. Try to accept him without judgment.
3. If you are still dating don't expect him to profess his love for you so soon.
4. DON'T push him into a commitment or an exclusive relationship.
5. Don't take everything personally.
6. Don't always expect him to apologies to you.
7. DO let him withdraw once in awhile; understand his need to be alone, to take things slowly, or to have a night out with the guys.

Lastly... Things to avoid when arguing or fighting with your relationship partner:
1. Criticism,
2. Contempt,
3. Defensiveness and stonewalling (withdrawing from talking)

Looking at the above pointers, I suppose I am faulted for a couple of things:p
