I think that being able to tolerate the other persons quirks and eccentricities may be a major part of having a relationship that lasts.

How are you going to express your love effectively? how are you going to connect with each other and keep emotional love alive?


there are no big huge wiser than wise answers to this....what you do is don't let a day go by with out taking care of all the little things because it is all the little things you do, day by day, as time goes by, that add up to love that has been kept alive

no magic - just being there and doing the little things that count, everyday, day after day

Lasting love means persevering through the rocky times, by appreciating each other, telling each other you love each other EVERY Day, and communicating, even when you don't want to. If it's too hard to talk face-to-face, write a letter or an e-mail, but don't go silent. You also need outside support systems so that you can manage when/if your primary relationship hits some challenges. Act as a team, and don't compete with each other.

I don't believe I have any surefire answers, but I'm convinced that staying tuned into one another is really important.

I know couples who have been together for 20 years or more, who knew everything about each other for the first 10, but 10 years later barely know one another. sad2

Listening to words of wisdom, always listening to him, giving him space with friends/family when he wants (they detest nagging), I never give him a curfew because I get the feeling it makes him feel like he's a child again (Be back by 9pm. Not. lol), I would support him in everything he does, I'd make him feel equal on all levels.

laugh I don't feel anymore men would even WANT to handle mine, anymore. Here's hoping my personality is decent enough. Ah well, there's always cake and friends, so all is not lost, just my mind, as always flowerforyou
