    I love how many times humor came up. My parents have been together for 25 years and my mom always says “The day your daddy stops making me laugh is the day I’m leaving him.”

      I think it's because in the beginning, they are still at the stage of earning each other's trust and laying down a foundation for their marriage. That's why they need to feel as if they are the priorities, friends, understood, etc. But once that foundation is built, it becomes really about tolerating/compromising and having fun (humor).

      No. Children do not become the priority. When the relationship fails, the kids suffer the most.

  • @skrittle555

    i think the fact that most people had varying answers just means that it really depends on the couple. finding someone with a similar heart and mind is really important in my opinion- someone who shares your values and such. but i do think having a sense of humor is vital, and ideally a similar sense of humor so one of you doesn't end up butthurt or actually hurt.

    • @schlubenno3827

    I like how much they emphasized on humor. I'm not married but I really, really want a humourous person who doesn't panick at everything, who doesn't turn every situation into a serious drama. And I kinda thought I was desiring something unimportant and needed to change my desire. This video was encouraging in that sense. :) I do think humor is important, and it's nice to hear so many long time spouces say so as well.

    "A completely unique experiences, not like friendship..." I completely agree. I love my wife, but "Love" isn't the right word. I respect my wife, but "Respect" isn't the right word. I am bound to my wife in the sense that we are married, but "Bound" isn't the right word. There is a more... profound wholeness... that fill those words. As you watch these couples, the younger ones have words because they are describing ideas. But the longer they are married the less specific it becomes because there really aren't words to describe that bond.

    • @Chi2024dolls-n-bl
      @Chi2024dolls-n-bl 4 роки тому +3

      True. When I try to describe what my husband of 21 years is to me, I'm thinking that he is my father, my child, my best friend, my teacher, my home, my family. I share with him everything. We are like ONE. It is not love in the romantic sense, even though we are very affectionate towards each other. It is a unique bond like none other in life.

    My grandparents celebrated their 66th wedding anniversary on May 10th this year. My sister and her husband have been together since she was about fifteen or sixteen years old and she's turning 35 this year. They're both huge inspirations to me for my relationship and being the same age my sister was when she started dating her husband I hope my relationship works as well as theirs has even being so young and I hope I can grow old with my boyfriend like my grandparents have.
