Marriage can mean many different things to different people. For some it's a dream come true, for others, its the next step in their life as they see it, and the reasons can be as diverse as the number of married couples in this world. However, there is no denying that making a marriage work can be challenging.

Love unconditionally, accept each other's differences without trying to change them, and give each other space to grow or your love may grow stale and you risk losing your individuality.
Be honest and trust that your love for each other will get you through the hardest of times.
by Vee
Hold hands and smile at each other whenever possible and as much as possible.
Ignore each others weaknesses, and compliment on their strengths.
Make sure you make time for just each other. Perhaps have a weekly date night and definitely do this before you have kids. It's also important to give each other space too and follow the hobbies you love.
Be who you are, be honest and love your partner for all their faults. Remember that you married the person you can't live without not the person that you want to live with.
If we look back to how our parents were able to not only stay married, but what really were 'some' of their best key tools...we see a very different concept.
Respect was a number one.
The old saying 'familiarity breeds contempt', comes to mind.
Marriage needs to have a few boundaries, that are never crossed...so each person stay's a person.There is no need to do 'everything' together even in the home.
It is in speech, actions and if used correctly a marriage will gain in trust and love.There will be no need to do all the other little 'gestures' that people think
seem to hold this life long union together.Of course love is the important part of a marriage, but when talking about a life long commitment,something else needs to be the glue that keeps those two people together, and happy.
It would be great to think Love is all you need, sadly it's not the primary one,this is where people have come undone.
Two people need to know they can depend on each other during the hard times, and of course good ones will follow...but also they are good friends, and companions.We can only love and like someone for the long haul, when we respect them.There is plenty of info (even on Google) on what respect means.
Communicate, and listen
