I am curious what is the longest relationship you have been in? It can be a husband, wife, friend any significant other. Describe your relationship and why it has lasted so long. Why do you think it lasted so long? Are you still in contact with this person?

@hellopeeps Well, in that case. I was in a long distance, friends with benefits for about a year-and-a-half. There's a guy I've known for ... 21 years. We haven't talked in ... months, but I could email him anytime.

Having a good relationship is a blessing from God ( for those of us who believe in God) but keeping the relationship going for long is a like a miracle that rarely happens in this time and age where divorce and separations. Mine is young but strong, hopefully In another many years to come I would be ready to share how long we have been together and the fruits of our relationship. But for now, all I can say it that we are happy together....

I met my husband in 1973. We began dating in 1974 and were married in 1975. It's safe to say we have been in a relationship for 41.5 years. We support one another. We balance one another. We sometimes agree to disagree. We work at our marriage every day.
