It’s not a secret when it comes to a long term relationship it does take work and two people change over the years so you grow to get her or a part but what keeps things between you going strong is communicating talking being open to keep the conversation between open and understand. You don’t have to agree on every little thing but have that open air way even if you don’t grew in the same direction you can still be together and in love. Support, talking, giving each other the time together and alone.

@tech40 I’m glad it can help. I’ve been married almost 10 years. My husband and I talk a lot it helps keep things going. We have a nice little balance.

I think the best piece of advice I could give anyone is to keep your dirty laundry between the two of you only. It's much easier to resolve an argument if you aren't getting a bunch of outside advice/opinions from people who have their own motivations.

@JasminRuru You're right, I got your idea and that is correct. Are you in a relationship?
