Quote on Morality in Sexual Relations by British Philosopher Bertrand Russell
“Morality in sexual relations, when it is free from superstition, consists essentially in respect for the other person, and unwillingness to use that person solely as a means of personal gratification, without regard to his or her desires.”

Tell no lies, spread no diseases, conceive no children*, break no hearts.
[ * obviously, unless the two of you both clearly and deliberately want that ]
