I would add:
Be humble when you hurt your partner (you will, its inevitable).
Trust your partner has your best intentions at heart. If you doubt this, then you shouldn't be together.
Second thoughts can generally be amended with judicious action; injudicious actions can seldom be recovered with second thoughts.
