“Even when you’re angry with them, but you still get coffee made for them in the morning, bc, you know they need it” Her words hit me.

just when you think the world is full of assholes, you find all these lovely people. thank you.

From what I see, they laugh with each other. And they look younger than they are. That's what love do I guess.

Been married 34 years. It brings a tear to my eye thinking of life without my wife. She is my everything.

Don’t marry someone who competes with you!  It’s like having a teammate who won’t pass the ball because they want to score themselves!

"A lot of flowers don't bloom for decades. Interesting flowers." healed my heart

You guys notice what they all have in common? They're all at peace.

Don't date someone you don't  have complete transparency with. Only date someone who tells you everything. Communication is key.

1. Marrying our best friend
2. Love is not looking in each others eyes, it is looking together in the same direction.
3. Committed relationship gives more freedom.
4. Good marriage gives safety and comfort. Just like a child who is secure about his relationship with his parents,  is then willing to go out to the world independently knowing that there is a good attachment. Marriage is also an attachment.
5. Try not to let an argument hangover to the next day. Embrace each other every morning no matter what happens.
6. Do not bring kids into your relationship chaos. Be sure of who you are with and then plan your kids accordingly.
6. Dont make a shopping list in finding your partner.

When you give up the “me” for the “we” that is love ….the lady has got it right!

I was married at 24 the first time… widowed just under 2 yrs (at age 26);  met my current wife 5 years later.  She was 5 years out of a 15-year marriage with 2 children (15 & 16).  We got engaged in about 3 months, married in less than 6 months.  She had just turned 42, I was 31.   Here we are 41 1/2 years later and couldn’t be happier.  We’d BOTH marry each other again tomorrow.   She’s turned 83 last October… I turned 73 this April.  Let the good times roll!

A marraige that is held together by respect, transparency, and each partner working on their own character,  becomes greater than the couple themselves.  That marriage is a life force.

Don't date people who put you in a vulnerable position and then refuse to defend you. IE: if he lets his family degrade you, you need to walk

A notable factor with all these long married couples is how healthy they all are. So companionship must contribute to this.

"Good marriages give a sense of confort and safety" THIS! It's truly important!

Married over 42 years now. Neither of us "shopped around", we connected immediately and didn't want anyone else. I heard no lies from the couples in the video. Every day we continue to choose each other, and we're happy we do.

I'm married now 41 years. I would say that a good marriage requires mutual concern for each other's wellbeing. When I saw my beautiful girlfriend lovingly care for her nasty old grandmother, I knew I wanted to marry her. She had the ability to look outside herself.

Best I've heard from a couple married for over 80 years was:
"Back in our day, when something broke, you fixed it. Nowadays if something breaks you throw it out and get a new one".

Married for 48 years. Rule number one. Dont marry someone and think you are going to change them. If they do something that bugs you. Can you stand that for 50 years or more? Because NOBODY can change anyone. Unless they want to change. And you harping on and on about it. Will tear your relationship apart. That was a hard thing to learn. I think it took me till year 16 to accept that he was who he was. And once I discovered that. There has been peace in the valley ever since.
