All good comments above. My grandfather and grandmother were married over 60 years before my grandpa. He said that a good secret to marriage ( relationships) is knowing you can make fun off or tell jokes about each other allowingly. Knowing that its only a joke and your doing it because you love them.

Faith , Hope , Patience , Understanding God created the union between Man & Woman The 2 shall be as one . That takes time & Patience Remember : No matter how long a couple are together , They will NEVER know everything about each other . There will always be SECRETS Why : Because we are ALWAYS changing . Everyday there is a part of us ( mental or physical ) that changes Faith in God Love for one another Loads of Patience Slow to anger Those I would say are most important to a happy & long Relationship Faith in GOD is 1st . Understanding that God doesn't let anything happy by accident . That everything happens for a specific reason . Bad times come & go . GOOD times last forever

You cant be happy with someone all the time..there are going to be times when you wish you where somewhere else..or with someone else..when those times get tough..but if your relationship is strong ..the two people in the relationship will overcome everything that is thrown at them.
Things that make a relationship work is.
- Good communication
- Active sex life
- Trust
- Honesty
- Immaturity
- Maturity
Without communication you have nothing..if you cant talk to your patner about anything and everything..then the relationship is not as strong.. with Trust..you have to be able to give your patner the benefit of the doubt ..when it comes to anything your not sure..dont blame your patner about doing something they havent done yet.."innocent till proven guilty" should be also something patners should follow..and if you or your patner makes a mistake..we are all humans..but you need communication and trust to be able to have honesty and tell your patner what you did wrong..in hope that your patner will understand and forgive..You need to have sense of humour..be able to laugh at things instead of getting angry..but you also need those "serious" talks that can not be ignored.. so you have to have both qualities of immaturity and maturity..you need to learn when to use which one..and an active sex life will keep the passion alive in the relationship..never stop flirting with your patner..even if it seems like you have been together for years.

Give up your favorite ego trip--YOURSELF--and give yourself up to a mutual identity as WE/US. When WE/US is more important than ME, other things follow naturally, such as respect (and more respect!), trust, appreciation, consideration, and pure enjoyment of each other. In other words, with ME out of the way and WE firmly front and center, love is allowed to grow.
(A thought: It occurs to me that every time I answer a question like this, I am reminded all over again how much I love my darling hubby, and why. I recommend that everyone who has relationship problems start answering questions like this one, as nakedly honestly as you are capable of, and see if things start to change for you. Now excuse me, I have to go kiss my QT!)

Keep it interesting, always try new things, but don't forget the old fun things. Spend the time together when it's needed but not so your up the other persons a$%. Always give each other space, and trust.

Patience and lots of it! my granny was married to my grandad for 60 years then he sadly died this Christmas..but trust in a relationship is vital and horrible if you dont receive it (I should know)
Space is important, balance and compromise on everything - love the person trully -100% commit yourself to them and worship them as much as you can and as often as you can and give lots and lots of respect..

Being yourself and accepting your partner for who they are, period. Being supportive of each others dreams and goals and not losing the chemistry and connection that brought you together to begin with.
