-Be supportive. Always reassure your partner with lots of encouragement (especially Awo guys that loved to be visited by their girls). Building each other up is essential to keeping a relationship in OAU.
-Be careful of friends. In OAU you need to be careful of the type of friends you introduce to your relationship. Some so-called friends could be tripping for your partner and may go to the length of sabotaging your relationship to be with them.
