Hmmm....
A healthy marriage is when you feel safe with your spouse, you feel like the two of you are actually one. There is no competition in your marriage, meaning that you are equal partners in this relationship. You can still laugh at the same things you laughed at when you first met. It's not "old".... you two can actually stay in the same room together for weeks, months at a time without getting sick of eachother....
You are still in love... and no matter what... you still love eachother

Understanding, and being respectful towards one another. Remembering those special days, having 'dates' with one another. Laughing at the fun things. When there are tears, it should be for ultimate happiness, or mutual sorrow. Loving one another as if you were boyfriend and girlfriend. Too many couples forget about that and how it was in the beginning.

first be faithful !!!! its give and take for the both of you.
you have to work at a marriage, like a job, it doesn't just happen.
you'll have a few bumps in the road of marriage, that's life.
but don't give up on each other.
after all they are your best friend and lover.

The secret to having a good marriage is to understand that marriage must be total, it must be permanent, and it must be equal.
Honesty, Committment and Comfort

Honesty
Trust
Communication
Romance
shared experiences that bring joy to both partners
communication there cannot be too much of that/
limit outside influences to before 9pm. After that only pleasant things are allowed.
Never go to sleep angry at each other.

It all boils down to good sex. If the sex is not good or not happening, then there is a problem somewhere. Lack of a desire for intimacy means the marriage is sick.

you have to talk. You have to compromise. You have to want to make each other happy. You have to know that it will not always be 50/50 -sometimes it will be 60/40. You have to be willing to work at it even when it seems too much like work.

Being each other's best friend, accepting each other's differences, communicating openly, doing little thoughtful things for each other like leaving love notes around, being attentive, and spending quality time together. (Just to name a few).
