Fall in love. And be damned sure about it before you go and make any lifetime commitments. Sex may not last forever, but you will still have to see each other every day. Don't learn to hate each other.
I'll have to agree with mark - focus on the long term and the fact that this person makes you happier than anyone else. Look past the fact that he can't pick up his socks. Look past the fact that his best meal is KD - at least he "cooks" for you!
Remind myself every day (or at least once a week ;) ) why I'm still in love with him. Take time out to enjoy each other. So many times we get caught up in the rut of daily life, we can forget that we're both people with needs and feelings.

Sex. Lots and lots of sex. :smile
I'm serious. Don't get bored with each other. Every time I see my wife's boobies, it's like a gift.
You really have to look beyond the day to day irritants and focus on the long-term parts of the relationship that drew you together to begin with...

My hubby and I can talk about anything.
We joke a lot so we laugh a lot. That helps in a big way.
