Hi Hushi! My lover and I have been together for 10 years and it hasn't been easy. The fact is, we really love each other. It's not just a word for us (love), it's a way of living together. My biggest advice would be to COMMUNICATE. To me that's the key to keeping a relationship going. My partner and I never hide anything from each other. We freely say how we feel or are affected by what each other says or does. Sometimes it's not easy to hear and not easy to say but I have found that if you keep thoughts and feelings to yourself you are doing harm to your relationship. Talk, talk, talk. Work it out. If you communicate, it creates a better understanding. We are all people, individuals. We all have our own ways of doing things, thinking, acting, speaking, etc. That's why it is absolutely necessary to continually COMMUNICATE with our partners. After all, they are not mind readers, right?!?!? lol.

I totally agree with you. I am just two years in marriage but from the time that we said "i love you" with my partner its 5 years already. COMMUNICATION makes our relationship stronger than before. LOVE is spelled by TIME and to have a quality time is to communicate all the time.

Hello there. I'm not sure if i'm the right person to give some advice but i can say that we've been together for almost 6 years and we're miles away with each other ever since we started this serious relationship. Anyway, are status is not as perfect as fairy tales but i am proud to say that we're still together. Why? because we are different. Yes, we are totally opposite and that's what make us together. I learn from her and i grow because of her. In a relationship, an open communication is important, listen to your partner and be his/her friend and critics too in able to survive the crucial world of "love". Self sacrificing is import also but do not give everything you have because later on you'll start comparing and counting all you've given to your partner and that will lead you to heartaches. Don't expect much and you'll be happy.Just enjoy each others company, appreciate your partner, give importance and value each other. Why i am saying all this because i take her for granted and now i'm regretting the actions i made... She's in pain and i can no longer take it away. She's perfect but i hurt her innocent heart.

aww thats cute^^ me i dont have much experience but for what i know to keep love alive we must care much for the person and do everything for the person to make her happy. listen and care and honest is all people need^^ also romantic ways to show love^^ being careless and lies is the way to destroy a relationship so we must always be honest no matter if we did something wrong we must not lie and be honest^^ and care much bcs without care is impossible to be happy or make someone happy^^

Well, there are a lot of things thata can keep love alive, but the most important thing would have to be...for me, communication. If communication isn't present, then the relationship is most likely to fail 100 percent of the time. You see, if you want to tell your lover that you want something more of them, you should plainly tell them, otherwise, it never happens, and you become unhappy. Your partner begins to notice and thinks that they are responsible for making you unhappy, and thus, your relationship is prone to end.

My Only advice to all lovers is respect each other and understand each other.
Don't take decisions when you are angry.
If there is any problem, go in their shoes and see the problem in their perspective and console them.
Happy Loving!!! :)
