My heart just melts when I see old couples who managed to be together for all these years. I'm pretty sure it wasn't a smooth ride all the time, but isn't it really heartwarming to see that love indeed could last forever?

I feel the same way. I just wrote a discussion on the sweet little couple that i met in the grocery yesterday. I'd give anything if i could have had a marriage like they seemed to have. I think they are few & far between.Happy days to u.

Hmm.. I think that type of attitude is a good start. But like you, most of us have a long way to go. Let's hope and pray that we do experience that type of relationship!

I know what you mean laydee. Its proof that love really does exist. It gives me hope watching old couples who have 40 or 50 years of marriage. That's loyalty. dl

We have a lot of elderly patients at the medical practice where I work. There are a lot of really cute couples who come in for their appointments together and you can just tell that they're still so happy to be together. We have one couple in particular who always make sure to give everyone in the office a hug and tell them that they love them. They're so lovable. It just seems like they really have things figured out in their lives.

I love looking at these old couples too. Their love is so genuine. I always wish that I will have the same kind of relationship when me and my husband got older. These people are not afraid to show their love to others. They are a good example for us to follow to have the same kind of relationship when we are older. If love would be as genuine as what they are having, people having divorce would be lesser.

Happy ending for that old couple. What do they say if I ask how can do that so you two can reach old time keep together? Are you commit on it? Young couple will getting old and if they passed the exam they will happy on their family. The important think that should you get in relationship is trust. Without it your home will getting broke slowly. Ask your lifetime match to discuss whatever the problem happened also improve your life quality.

Hmmm.. What exam? But yeah, I think couples could really reach that point if they just do their best to keep the marriage work.
