10 Qualities Of A Long Lasting Marriage. by rIcky13(m): 7:50pm On Dec 30, 2013
Marriage is like a beautiful dance where each partner matches his or her step with another to coordinate and make it look seamless, effortless and beautiful. A long lasting marriage is no joke and does not happen just like that. A lot of hard work goes into making a marriage work and keep it a success even after many years. A long lasting marriage serves as an inspiration to many and has many qualities that once can learn from. Some of the qualities of a long lasting marriage are

1. Honesty
Honesty is important for any relationship to work and marriage is no exception. A marriage lasts longer when the couple is honest with each other and has more or less nothing to hide from each other.
2. Love
To love and to remain in love for many ears is also an essential for a marriage to last longer. Staying in love with the same person and living with his or her faults is also a quality of a long lasting marriage that many can take a cue from.
3. Trust
Another quality of a long lasting marriage is the trust that the married couple has for each other. Trust comes from being open with each other and believing in each other standing behind the other and backing up no matter what.
4. Communication
Good communication is also a quality that makes a marriage work and makes it last longer. A flawed communication among two people is what leads to many misunderstandings and fights. Communication and effective communication is a definite must for any marriage.
5. Respect
Another quality that can be found in a couple from a long marriage is the amount of respect they have for one another. They never let each other down under any circumstances and respect each other giving each their own space.
6. Commitment
A couple has to stay committed to each other and the relationship if the marriage has to last longer. Any long lasting marriage would have this commitment as a quality.
7. Humor
Humor is an essential part in any relationship. In a marriage when two people live together under the same roof for a long time going through troubles and bad times together, it is only humor that can keep them together; the ability to laugh and tide over bad time is a quality that keeps a couple together for long.
8. Support
In a marriage that lasts for decades, it would be a given that the couple would stand by each other and give unconditional support be it in good times or in bad times. A couple that supports each other will stay together.
9. Compassion
Compassion for the other person is also an essential quality of a long lasting marriage. When there is a lack of compassion, there is little understanding and a couple can hate each other without really knowing what the problem is.
10. Dependable
There are two people putting their time effort and energy into a marriage and for it to work and last for many years, the two people should be assured of the fact that they can depend on each other no matter what problems they may face.
There are more qualities in a long lasting marriage, but these are some of the most important and essential ones that a lot of people can learn from to make their marriage work and make it last longer.
