A ‘tough love’ dating coach shared a checklist of activities couples should do if they’ve just moved in together – and he claims spending ‘too much’ time with each other is a myth.
Jake Maddock believes he has cracked the code when it comes to finding and building a ‘perfect’ relationship after struggling for years to get it right.
Jake, who is now married, says that from his experience it’s essential to ensure there are absolutely no arguments when couples start living together.
‘Don’t ever argue,’ he emphasised in a video. ‘If you feel tensions getting higher, take a breath, do a 20-second hug, and relax.’
The n dating coach also recommends being intimate thrice a week, going on a date weekly, and communicating effectively.
‘You need to have some dual hobbies and dual goals that you can focus on every week,’ he said.
There are several hobbies and activities couples can take up – such as cooking, gardening, going to the gym, making art, and more.
‘You must have effective communication and embrace the masculine and feminine energy,’ he said. ‘Talk all the time. First thing in the morning, late at night, in between.’
Jake added, ‘You’re going to become best friends and romantic lovers. Spend as much time together as possible – you can’t spent too much time together.’
The dating coach revealed that relationships fail because people don’t spend enough ‘quality’ time together where they’re actively engaging with one another – and that natural breaks from your partner come from work and seeing friends.

A few thanked Jake for his advice and agreed with his opinions – but others shared opposite experiences.
‘My boyfriend has fallen out of love with me because he says we spend too much time together, and thinks sleeping next to each other is time together,’ one said.
‘I haven’t been with my partner in over a week as he values his alone time sadly,’ another wrote.
