5 Indicators for a Lasting Relationship
by If these elements are prevelant in your relationship, there’s a good chance your love will last a lifetime.
Trust
If your relationship is not based on trust, it will not survive. Ladies, if your guy displays all the signs of being in love with you, seems happy and makes you happy, don’t think because he looks at other women means he would rather be with them, or doesn’t really love you. It’s just human nature. Most gentlemen will be discreet and not ogle and gawk, especially when you are together. Right Guys?
Loving Affection
Sometimes we get so caught up in everyday living that we forget the little signs of affection that make us feel loved. A kiss hello and goodbye, a hug, even just a loving glance can do so much to make us feel special.
Respect For Each Others Need For Space
We all need to have a certain amount of time alone. Otherwise you can start to feel suffocated in a relationship. Allow each other space to pursue friendships and other interests you may not share. It will make for a healthier mind set and you will have more to talk about and share when you are together.
Communication
You will have disagreements from time to time. Try to remember you are adults and you can resolve your differences. Always keep the lines of communication open. Wouldn’t it be boring if you totally agreed on everything?
Friendship
Do you share common interests? Enjoy hanging out together and treasure each others company? Being best friends first will almost always guarantee the two of you living a long and happy life together.

Very nice and well written article. All of your topics for a successful marriage were right on the money. I personally think that space and common interests have worked so well in my marriage. There was a man who told me that him and his wife had been married for 60 years, and had just had one argument, and it had lasted the whole sixty years. Well done DA. And by the way, great pictures.

Some great advice, I think the need for space is one of the most difficult to strike the right balance for both parties.

You are right on target. Communication and patience will work everytime and it’s a good idea to be on the same page about finances. Loved your pics.
