This leaving the comfort zone is a really cute picture
This Is How Couples Who’ve Been Together Their Whole Lives Help Love Thrive
Life experience can tell us a lot about one of the deepest and most vivid emotions: love. Though it might seem hard to keep it going throughout the years, it’s still possible if you keep in mind some simple rules. And the couples who’ve been together for decades and followed them simply proved to everyone that it’s real.
Bright Side carefully noted this precious advice from couples who’ve been together for a lifetime and we’re ready to pass it down to our readers. Time to learn something new!
Always be a team.
You have to work together whether a situation is good or bad. This also means that your viewpoint needs to change — you need to see everything as a couple, not as individuals.
Keep having fun.
Sharing a good laugh helps you get through life’s tough situations and keeps the relationship strong. Keep finding reasons to have fun but don’t make offensive jokes about each other.
Arguments are normal.
Leave your comfort zone.
Try to find challenging activities to do together, something you’ve never done before, or something that amazes you. This makes the bond between you stronger and keeps that special spark alive.
Physical attraction is just as important.
Inner beauty is powerful, but finding your partner’s body attractive does just as much. You don’t have to be supermodels, but staying healthy and trying to look good for each other as much as you can go a long way.
Diamonds aren’t important.
Receiving all kinds of presents from your partner is surely pleasant. However, price doesn’t matter when it comes from a pure heart and best intentions. Things are things — but feelings are priceless.
It’s good to be a bit old-fashioned.
Before you start a serious relationship, ask yourself some questions like, “Can they provide for the family?” or “Can they be a good parent?” and other things that you find important. After all, your future will depend on them and you need to know the likely outcome.
Your friends aren’t the best judges.
Don’t seek your friends’ approval of your partner. They have their own opinions and views on life. Instead, listen to yourself and your gut feeling.
Take care of each other.
Loving someone is giving away a piece of yourself — it’s taking care of the ones who are precious to you. Caring is less about being possessive and demanding of love, but rather, it’s more realistic and compassionate.
Do your grandparents or parents have an interesting love story? How do they keep their spark alive after all these years? Do you have a touching photo of them? Let’s share everything in the comments!
