What's not to love about a man who wears a heart on his sleeve? Here are five relationship lessons we learned from Derek Zoolander's three-hour fling with Cara Delevingne

1. Beauty doesn't just lie on the inside.
We all know model and actress Cara Delevingne's a stunner, but did you know that she's not just beautiful on the outside? According to Zoolander, who announced their relationship on Instagram a few days ago, she's also beautiful on her side profile. 

EXCLUSIVE: "Der-vigne” are now a “thing”. In the coming months and years, I’ll be live-gramming my relationship. She’s a beautiful girl, not just on the outside. But also on the side side. Like in profile.

2. A blue steel pose is all you need to decide whether your partner is spouse material.
Who cares about compatibility when you have Zoolander's signature pose down pat? With just a pout on the lips and some cheekbone engineering, the Suicide Squad actress scored a proposal.

OMG. Her #bluesteel is on point. That’s it. I’m proposing. Wish me luck!

3. Employ a personal social media assistant to document candid moments in your relationship.
Every high profile couple needs a social media assistant. Who else will document your stolen kisses, surprise hanky-panky sessions and matching couple jackets as you walk away into the sunset?

Ugh. I thought about telling my personal social media guy to not take this, but I SWORE i would hold nothing back in #2016. Cara Delevingne is so sprung I worry I could hurt her.

4. Apologise to your ex on social media, and remember to bring up past issues.
Subtlety doesn't quite cut it in modern relationships. To really bury the hatchet, it's best to make it known on Instagram — especially if you have a following of over 900,000. Not only do you come clean before the public jumps to conclusions, you also rally support via comments, constructive or otherwise.

@penelopecruzoficial I am so sorry I was acting messed up towards you. I don't know how you found out that I cheated on you with Cara Delevingne. Imagine how I felt when you married Javier Bardem? But I was willing to work with that! #sorrynotsorry

5. A relationship is like a beautiful bird.
...and you can learn a lot about a person in just three hours.

If there is love, it can take flight. But if the bird is caged, it begins to feel trapped, like as if it was in a cage. but then if someone is calling that bird “more washed up than a russians blue jeans” or “dumber than brie”, then the bird gets it’s feelings super hurt. But then if the bird tries to get one last french kiss goodbye, and the girl punches him right in the beak and then hits the bird with his selfie stick (which you can pay me for ANYTIME), then thats lame to do to the bird. THEN! THEN! She gets the bird in a half nelson and threatens to get a restraining odor, that’s super lame. Then she nearly broke the birds ARM! Which REALLY-REALLY HURT CARA!!!! Like you could have broken the birds WING!
