Husband and wife have duties for each other. However, there is one main theme to make marriages successful " husband and wife are to love and respect each other". Unfortunately, some couples find love vanishing from thier relationship. How can married people keep loving each other? What are your ways to keep love in your marriage?

Marriage could be successful if both the persons have understanding & respect for each other.its true that both the partners need care, & when it is from both the sides then this relation will never go to an end.I suggest all the married couples to keep faith in each other & be adorable to one another.

yeah , today there are lots of failed marriages it's just because of the differences between two people that have just shown after how many years of getting married. accepting one's failure and success and respecting each other helps to get the married going.

My husband and I spend time talking to each other about things that do not revolve around our everyday duties. We rarely get time alone as a couple except when the kids are all in bed. We haven't been out on a "date" since we got married just over two years ago. We do occassionally have the opportunity to run a few errands without the kids and we take times like this to just be a couple. We also make sure that each day, we say the words' "I love you" to each other. We both do little things for one another that show how we feel, even though they are little things that to some may seem insignificant, it is the little things that count the most. I think that it is important for any couple to take the time to just communicate and be a couple. Sometimes, you have to just step away from everything else and make the time to connect.

You got it right, to take time to communicate and be a couple. Me and my husband do some pillow talks, saying "i love you" everyday... for me it's a big thing in a relationship.

Long walks together. Respect. Unneccesary phone calls to say hi. Being "evenly yoked" in spiritual growth. Back rubs. Paying attention to the little changes in mood and tending to them.
