is there a secret or certain method for long lasting marriages?

Answer 1

Making a good marriage is like making a BETTER you. Always encourage your mate in ANYTHING that is positive. Make sure you have your times TOGETHER so you can grow together, and APART to develop as individuals.

Learn to share each other Joys and Burdens in life. Talk about places you would like to go and things to do together, and be spontaneous and take the other out somewhere special. (A walk on the Boardwalk, Picnic, Live entertainment, or just a drive to see the sunset somewhere special.)

We are creative individuals, so be CREATIVE and most of all be SUPPORTIVE.

Answer 2

I have only been married for 4 yrs in January....and I think it is about making sure you are not getting married to get out of a bad childhood home or escape a bad life. My husband has a very simple and grounded family. I would not of married him if his Mom and I did not get along either. What is the point of a mother in law from heck marriage is a lot of hard work as it is. There is so much that can make a marriage successful. I wish I would of taken pre-marital classes to give me the correct "tools" to get through bad times....I would suggest doing that if you feel like it. I think even there are marital classes if you need them later on.

Trust your partner, love and honesty at all times, faith.......Just a thought.

Answer 3

LOVE IS THE KEY WORDS and it covers unselfishness, endure and even you know you are right you have to keep quite (don't think it is stupid in actual this is an act to show love.) forgive even your love one betrayed you.

YA I KNOW EASY TO SAY HARD TO DO. BUT BASICALLY THAT IS HOW YOU CAN MAINTAIN A LONG LASTING MARRIAGE.

ANSWER: Actually there is really no method, if one wants to change it will change no matter how well or good you treat your
spouse but only through GOD, because once you know someone is watching over your marriage you know you are safe as our world these day are so horrible (TV, BOOKS,MAGAZINE...) so put your marriage in GOD'S hand and he will watch over you. AS HE WILL GUIDE YOU TO A LASTING MARRIAGE. READ THE BIBLE YOU WILL GET YOUR ANSWER. *too many people give too many answer but can you do it or accept it? therefore only 2 hearts that comes together under one roof (which is GOD) then your hearts will become one as what the bible say.

Answer 4

Yes! There is a method tried and tested by at least a few billion over a period of 3.8 centuries.
its simple and straight.
For a man
when he is married, he should become dumb, start learning fast to act upon instructions. He should learn to dance to music and his wife's tunes. accquire some charecters of a donkey, Learn to sacrifice everything from, sleep, money, pleasures of the palate, sense of humour etc. etc.
then he should learn to keep his mouth shut for 24 hours yet argue for days on end.
his stress tolerance levels should be very very high.
he should also learn to act like a sniffer dog and a lapdog.
Once these are achieved marriage is bliss and will last as long as the lady wishes.

Answer 5

Honesty, open minded discussions, understanding each other, honour the guardians are the some of methods for long lasting marriages.

Answer 6

Sure...

Most people search for a perfect match... kindred spirit. But, frankly, they don;t truly exist. What you need to look for in a partner is an equally flawed individual who will bend over backwards to work with you through troubles. Thats the secret of a great relationship

Answer 7

I've been happily married over twenty five years, my credentials. We always say we love each, kiss each other good night, or good bye. Seems silly, but if you don't, you seem to forget and treat them as a roommate. I still try to find special things to do for my wife (whom I proudly introduce as "my bride" still to friends). We cheer each on, even if it's getting a bit old hearing the same old problems. When I get mad, I know from experience it's more me being grouchy, tired or hungry, and nothing to do with her. I am afraid there is no special advice that is new. Just remember, two hearts, one love.

Answer 8

Yes it is but first we need to love the lord and give him our heart and let him be our husband and then, he can teach us how to love him and if you know how to love the lord as your husband and then you will know how to love your husband .Because you will take care of God and God tell us how to take care of our husband so that is how we have a long marriage in the lord and in our life, but we as woman must first come under the head like the lord said and that is the man first and the woman then the kids and the family next and let God be God in your life and pray .I can tell you this when storm come in your life go and pray to the lord and he will work it out .And if you and your husband get into it take it in pray because the head of a man is God and a head of a woman is man so go tell the father on the son.

Answer 9

The longer you are married, and the more problems you work together through, the less likely you are going to want a divorce.

That 'spark' that everyone is desiring turns into a steady warm fire that keeps you warm after you are married for awhile.

Answer 10

Honesty,LOVE,TRUTH,Friendship,Trust! Being there when you are needed! Never having to ask why! Missing each other whenever you are apart! Thinking of each other before yourself! Always wanting to spend your time with each other! Always caring and RESPECTING each other, and each others privacy!
Always, always, always, LOVE each other first!

I may not be right about everything, but I have been with my wife for twenty-five years of true LOVE!! I still LOVE her, as much as I always have! Besides my boys, she is the best thing that has ever, or will ever happen to me! And I have NO doubt, she LOVES me just as much today,as she did when we were twenty!
