I am not sure if there is a "What NOT to do in a relationship" but NEVER, EVER, call her a derogatory name, no matter how angry you get. If I were to come to disrespect my lady like that, then the relationship is not meant to be. In my mind, if it happens once, good chance it will happen again. Thankfully it has never happened And I do not ever see it happening.

Want to second this. Call a woman a derogatory name and she hears it in her heads for the rest of her lives. No matter how much time has passed or how stupid she knows it was that you did it or how many "reasonable explanations" you offer. (IMO, there isn't one.)

Not fair of me to limit it to women so how about just don't call anyone you "love" a derogatory name.
