You have to be 100% committed to your marriage even when things seem at their worst. (this excludes abuse of coarse) It also takes the both of you. The passion will come and go, you will get bored, you will even dislike each other at times but you stay and stick it out through sickness and health and the ups and downs. So, many couples throw in the towel in their marriages because they don't feel "Happy" or "Passionate" etc, etc. There are many reasons behind this but if you stay and work it out you will have a long and happy marriage.
#1. Set aside time each week for a date or to get off by yourself and spend time together.
#2. Don't spend too much time a part sexually. Really try and work on your sex life.
#3. Take at least one weekend a year or even twice a year if you can manage to "honeymoon"
#4. Learn skills to cope with the challenges of marriage.
communication/disagreements
#5 Never argue in front of the kids (if you have them)
#6 Make it your mission to do things (even just little things) to make your spouse happy on regular basis.
#7. Never argue in the bedroom or when you are about to be intimate.
#8 Of coarse the old one we all know about it Never go to bed angry.
#9 No name calling....EVER
#10 Put you and your spouse number 1 one the list of priorities....always!!
Go to counseling.....to prevent problems...learn how to affair proof your marriage...learn how to discuss things and work out conflicts....

I was too late when I realized. My loved one left me for someone else. We've been together for 10years, married for 5.
Where I believed I lacked were;
-Cherrish every moment, just in case, you never know what accidents will happen later on
-Don't take each other for granted. Even though the relationship/marriage has been on for a long time, the occasional surprises, and reminders of the two of you fell in love would be nice
-Make some time for your love one, make her feel special and never get it to a point where she will be waiting or asking for your attention.
-Make every moment a loving a caring moment. You find out a persons real colour when they are under pressure. I found out that I'm 'crippled' and 'vegetable' without my better half
-Never ignore her needs, woman are gentle and sensitive beings, so show gentleness and tenderness
-Keep the passion

One thing that I have learned while being married is understanding that you come from different families, therefore you have different beliefs. So if you say or do something to her and he doesn't react the way that you expected, try to understand it's not because he thinks what you said or did is crazy it's just that he wasn't brought up the same way. You know, his family might motivate each other by insults and your might use encouraging words. And the same goes for him when he says or does something to you. I swear this is the best advise that anyone has ever given me....also try to have a "love" language which are acts of service, physical touch, time with each other, gifts, and words of affirmation...but you will need to learn each others language that way you are both letting each other know that you LOVE them...

Always remember your marriage vows, "In sickness or in health, in poverty or in wealth..till death do us part." it is during the "downs" that one need the other the most. So be there when your partner needs a crying shoulder and a listening ear. Don't forget to spent quality time together. Do the sweet little things that make life meaningful. ( leaving love notes on top of the fridge, giving flowers, etc) Vary your love making (there are various methods to do it) . Renew your vows (love)every now and then..and continue loving each other amidst all your problems and misgivings.

make sure you both have over $1 million dollars each..with 0$ debt...and cars and houses all paid for...and a very stable career with great retirement pension...and you will live happily ever after...dont listen to what everybody say about love and all that..it takes finances to buy you time..which gives you the time to love..without finances..you wont have time..which will let you make love more often...

i think that the true sucess in a marriage is that each person has to have there own space at times. doing this makes the time you spend together that more spicy.
