Can love really last a lifetime?

Yes! As a matter of fact, a lot of families have proven that they have a successful marriage in life. Love can really last long if you can challenge whatver temptations or problems that might come in your way. It needs sacrifices. It requires discipline and avoidance of self interest to another thing that would probably ruin the relationship of yours with your partner. Love needs unity and aggreement with each other in all aspects of life. Love needs cooperation and understanding. Love needs patience. Love needs mutual harmony. And if you and your partner have these, then probably your relationship would really last long for a lifetime. It is not so easy to follow these all, but we can do these things if we have this determination and motivation to work hard, despite the problems that might come through in our way, and of course, that would not be possible without God's grace to help you solve this problem. Have a nice day!

YES. we should know that there many kinds of love, first is what is called in the Bible AGAPE or brotherly love another is ERUS or romantic love, we'll am sure that we're talking here about ERUS love. you what love will last only if it's true love, but the question is, HOW WILL YOU KNOW THAT YOUR IN TRUE LOVE? find out the answers in my discussion, please don't hesitate to participate. thank you

There's only temptation if the person perceives it that way. If a person is committed to their relationship, and the promises they made, then what you might consider 'tempatations', they consider nothing. It's not a tempatation if the individual isn't tempted. And if the person *is* tempted, then they had little right to commit themselves for a lifetime in the first place. Relationships and love can definitely last a lifetime, but the mistake people make is in thinking it comes naturally. It doesn't. Just like any relationship it requires constant maintanance. Mutual respect, effective communication, shared goals and ambitions, all of these are essential to a healthy and happy longterm relationship. It's anything but easy, often damn near impossible, more work than anyone realizes until they come to that point themselves, and completely worth the effort involved.

i guess that if a couple really loves each other, accept their other half as who they are, learn to compromise and stand by each other no matter good or bad, then their love can last a lifetime. i would like to believe that love can last a lifetime, as love is something wonderful after all.

Yes of course it will last...if your love is pure and everlasting too...

It takes alot of communication, dedication, compromise and patience of both people to do this. I've been lucky enough to see what this is like with my parents, my husband's grandparents and other couples that we are close to. All of them have told me the same thing and I can only pray that I will experience what they have.
