Strengthen your relationship with regular communication and quality. Do not hesitate to ask the little things like, "You've already eaten yet?" "How was your day at the office?" Or "What you do today, honey?" It seems really trivial, but great things often start from the event " smaller "sort. Your attention will make the day better. Even if there is no problem, the questions posed on the basis of that love can certainly make a flowery heart. Get used to talk about things no matter how small to your partner.

ooohh..i am still single, and sometimes i feel a little bit scared thinking about marriage as some of my friend`s marriages ended up in divorce..what we do to keep our marriage last forever is to understand your partner,ready to listen,give attention to what your partner needs and you must have commtiment to do whatever it takes to sve your marriage because marriage is not only for 1-2 months.

Hi yeomanly, I've been married for 20 years now and am still looking for the secret to a successful married life. However, I do think that the secret to a good marriage is to not always think about changing your partner. Your spouse is who he/she is and you should love him/her as he/she is and not try to mould him/her into what you think he/she should be. Accept him/her the way he/she is. That was the reason why you marry him/her in the first place. I don't understand why people want to change other people. It's difficult to change others. Why not start with yourself? Do you think there are things about you that need changing? Instead of thinking about changing others, why not think about things that you can change about yourself that'll make others happy. I think if everybody not just married couples think this way, the world would be a better place. But then again this is just my opinion.
