Answer 1

A relationship requires work on both your parts. Keep the communications open. Kid around and enjoy each other and when the going gets tough support each other.

Answer 2

Ten tips for a lasting marriage:

1. Don't sweat the small stuff. When you are tempted to blow up at your spouse, ask yourself, "How important is this really, when compared to the big picture?" If it is insignificant, don't blow up - blow it off.

2. Do talk about it. If you can't blow it off, don't hold it in. Those little things will eat at you and fester inside, until you find yourself enraged. The resulting explosion can be devastating.

3. Think before you speak. The old saying "count to 10" has its merits. Take time to think and to formulate your words before you blurt out something hurtful. Your spouse is more likely to listen to your complaints if they are presented logically.

4. "I" not "you". If your spouse has done something that has upset you, and you really need talk to him about it, don't put him on the defensive. Instead of, "You made me angry when you did...", say, "I was hurt by...". This gives him the chance to respond to your reaction, not defend his action.

5. Your tone of voice speaks louder than your words. The way you speak to your spouse can say more than the words from your mouth. Even loving words can be hurtful when spoken with the wrong tone of voice. Think honey, not vinegar.

6. You are a team. A team has to work together in order to pull the load. Pulling against each other will only drive you apart, and no progress will be made.

7. Marriage is a journey, not a destination. Each of you will change and grow throughout the years. Don't expect your spouse to always be the same person you married. Marriage is just the first step of a long life together.

8. It is OK to disagree. You are two different people who have joined your lives to become one. You will have differing opinions. The key is to talk out the disagreements, and learn to give in sometimes. You will not always get your way, and expecting to will lead to trouble.

9. Share everything. Now that you have joined your lives, what is his is hers and vice versa. You have one life together, not two lives together. You are not roommates. There is no room for selfishness in a successful marriage.

10. Love is not just a feeling. True love is an action - be sure to show love in what you do, not just what you say. Actions really do speak louder than words.

Answer 3

Say i love you more than once a day. KISS. Kiss every time you leave each other and the moment you get back. The moment you might be attracted to someone else, don't dwell on it. Ive been faithful and I'm still head over hills for my man. We've been together for 12 years and will have been married for 11 in two weeks. And I am totally devoted! So it is possible.

Answer 4

Honesty, respect and understanding and attentive to each other.
To be healthy married life away from trouble,
1. Be honest to your spouse. Before you sleep on the night, Tell him everything about you what happened to you during the day while he is on duty. Talk and share him everything whatever you have in mind even your likes to hang-ups again with friends for funs.
2. Respect him as much as possible. If you have something in mind ask his opinion. Do not argue with him when you are not in the right position.
3. Understanding him every times needed.
4. Be attentive to his needs.

Answer 5

Being romantic, doing the small things, finding ways to keep it spicy, passion, only having eyes for each other, not getting too comfortable, being silly together, laughing, being affectionate, spending time together without the TV, computer, game systems, going out on dates, putting in the effort to look good for him all the time, treat him like you were first dating, giving them a hug when they walk in the door, kiss them all the time, call them at work, just to tell them that you love them. Doing things for them, treating them with love, kindness, and respect always, surprising them, going out of your way for them, making sure that you are there for them, on all levels, supporting them, appreciating them, communication, treating them far better then your family and friends, putting them first, grow together, being wild together, understand them, even if you always don't agree. Write love letters, do goofy things with them, and never cheat!

Answer 6

I think keeping a relationship requires a lot of spontaneousness... Keeping things new and fresh... I know its hard with work 24/7 and all, but if you can keep doing new things, saying sweet things to each other that you never tell each other... I dont know, things like that, your relationship will seperate from the normal average american ways... Thats just me though...

Answer 7

By spending quality time with the other person. By giving without expecting anything in return. By caring about your partners` views , needs and wants, and adjusting to reflect their desires. By waking up beside them in the middle of the night and snuggling closer, only to fall back to sleep with them in your arms. THAT is what works for me....

Answer 8

Truth,Honesty, and the love and trust in the other person to know that there is no other one in the world for you or that can come between you two.You have to have faith in yourself,the other person,and your relationship.To know that everything will be alright no matter what.

Answer 9

You need to be a good listener, be understanding and keep your sense of humour, no matter what happens. Oh, and most importantly, remember birthdays and other important dates on the calendar.

Answer 10

Insanity! You have to try the same thing over and over and expect a different result every time, otherwise you will get bored and either live with it or try to find fun elsewhere.
