People who have been married for over 50 years plus...I always ask my patients in the hospital..who Have made it that long..what is their secret- The ones that are happy...( and not everyone who stays married are happy) they all have common themes. Communication, compromise, Respect..and Love. Love for each other, and a love for God. They always say...it hasnt always been easy, weve had our ups and downs...but we worked through it because we didn't want to be anywhere else. Think its easy to compromise? Easy, to continually show up to love and learn another human being....when youve gotten in a disagreement...or said hurtful things...its Not Easy to Love. But when you find someone whos worth it..and you value that person being in your life....you will go thr extra mile to talk about it...say Im sorry...or Forgive. Thats what makes True Love difficult...but if your both willing to resolve any conflict, it makes the hard part of being in a relationship....easier. 💖

I don't call it work because you are correct. When we hear work we think something negative. It takes effort. Check in every once in a while to see how your partner feels. Be mindful of what you say and dont say.
If you have a partner who is sensitive but you arent. It doesnt mean you walk on egg shells but try to see where they are coming from even if it may seem foolish to you.

My parents just celebrated 50 years of marriage yesterday. They will tell you it was a lot of hard work for the both of them individually AND as a couple.
They feel relationships fail so easily today because people aren’t willing to put in the work; they find it easier to quit.
No one should ever be made to feel that they are putting in more work than the other though. It’s 100/100. None of that 50/50 stuff. ❤️

I agree. It's like that quote by Confucius "Find a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life." Yeah everything that we want to work requires us to put in work, but the right relationship, that has been blessed by The Creator, won't feel like work because the love and commitment y'all have for each other will be real.

At a wedding last night, I was talking to a pastor about this. He was telling me that he and his wife got married "late" in life because they had to figure out if it was what they wanted. A relationship is work and many people don't realize that. It's the same thing that my mom told me when I asked her what it's like to be married--she just said, point-blank, "it's work." What I realized over the years of watching my parents is that it's not just cleaning the house, cooking, and paying the bills, but it's taking care of your partner's spirit. It's being patient with them when you don't understand them and staying with them as you try to understand them. It's knowing how to encourage them and not tear them down. And before we can do any of these tings for someone else, we need to do it for ourselves.

Healthy relationships takes time, energy, and consistent effort. We’ve essentially romanticized relationships to make you think that it’s like a Disney princess movie.
