My older cousin once said "Idk how So and So have been married for over 20 years and they just fine. They've probably cheated on each other a ton, cause Idk how they can be together for so long and not get bored" I was appalled! I also felt very sad for her, not being able to have a healthy emotional connection with someone to feel comfortable around em like that. I've been with my husband for 9 years and we often say how it feels like it has been less time.
I've been with my husband for 36 years, and not one boring day. Marriage is like a bank. You get out of it what you put into it. Your cousin, like a lot of single women, say that to make them feel better about being single.
@@youreincredible1648 You're seeing less and less long lasting relationships, because you're spending too much time in he innanet. Yes, it does mean you're bitter.
It really is. I feel that people who say they get bored with that same person are just never going to be happy. It's the same mentality of always wanting the next new phone, car, or trend. They always think there is something better so they are never satisfied.
The first clip awww so cute, that man loves loves his wife. My future marriage with my man will be blessed, happy, fun, peaceful, mutual respect and full of joy and favor. I'm speaking it into existence, from my mouth to God's ears. Amen.🙏
Healthy relationships exist. Just stop living in a fairy tale world and embrace reality. Stop giving up on each other and try to resolve issues. Put pride and ego aside, and do not let conflicts linger. You will see that you will wax stronger with every misunderstanding, as you grow older.
I’m facing significant relationship problems and can’t stand the idea of losing her. My love and longing for my partner are profound, and I’m ready to do anything to restore our connection. I would greatly appreciate any advice or help you could give.
Moving on from someone you hold dear is invariably challenging. Still, in my experience (When we went through real challenges), I was guided by a spiritual counselor who prevented the breakdown of my marriage. Her name is Suzanne Ann Walters.
I'll swiftly look her up online. Thanks. I'm hopeful that following this course of action will bring about positive changes for me too; her absence is deeply felt.
Truth is happily married people are some of societies quietest and most invisible groups.They are preoccupied and happy and aren’t caught up in debates about dating or relationships but the downside is people don’t see this half as much as the toxic stuff.Not only is it possible but common and present all around (sure in some spaces and places more than others).So don’t lose hope ladies. And just remember the bitter men online or the horror stories of cheating,hurting,abandoning,disrespecting women etc are 10x more likely to spread than the good accounts of men holding women and their families down.Same with the bitter men online who create entire podcasts dedicated to negativity; they are a minority.A working married man just isn’t going to have the time to be talking on a podcast everyday when they have a family and dreams and goals.All that to say from experience I know there are still a lot of good guys,sure the super amazing ones may not even be the majority but they too are around.Usually living life and getting on with it.They just may not be your usual type or in the places you expect; But trust me they are looking for you too!
You can easily distinguish these couples during summer vacation, in the middle of sweating and the heat and chaotic kids they still give each other the "I wanna F you so bad" look 😂
I do believe that the phrase "You don't need a man" is true, you don't *need* them, you're able to live without them, but you don't want to. You WANT them, that for me is more important then "needing" them. Nothing is keeping you together but the pure love you feel for each other.
In the very beginning of the video when the man was counting out how many people were married it made me cry, before my grandpa died last year, he had my grandma were married 66 years It seems unreal. It makes me so emotional . Bless everyone’s hearts !! MY lord grant us that kind of love. I know I’d love more than anything to have that in my life ❤❤❤❤❤
You can have it. Stop listening(if you are) to other single women. Have standards, rules, and boundaries. Judge a man by his character and character only. Most important, or God first. This is from a provided for wife of 36 years.
There's no limit on how many times I can hug, kiss or say I love you to my husband, he will always reciprocate, even when it goes to silly levels we just laugh and keep doing it. We've been in a long distance relationship for most of our time together and we sleep in a discord call every single day, we only missed a week when I went on a trip with my mom and that was the hardest week for us😂💖
I'm also in a ldr right now, similar setup. We sleep call often. I'm so happy. We're meeting up next year for the first time to celebrate our 2nd year together. I hope you and your husband are happy. Makes me so happy to see people being in happy, loving relationships :)
And beautiful to see them dance together, hold hands, and seem genuinely happy 🥲 my grandparents were married for a long time but never saw this between them
Had friends who celebrated their 25th wedding anniversary this year. They were High School sweethearts from Freshman year and still love each other as deeply and truly as they ever have.
My parents are at 20. I know what love looks like, I strive to wake up and look over and feel like I'll be ok for the rest of my life knowing I loved. My parents can be at peace so far apart but home is home. I have seen my parents fight but I've also seen them reconnect. My dad is happy my mom is his wife, my mom is happy my dad is her husband. I'm so happy I have them as my role models. Part of me thinks I'm single because I want the person I meet to understand I can not be played with because I have the best reference.
Grew up in India and while there are a lot of couple married for a long time - very few are actually happily married! My parents fell in love and married but they didn’t stay in love for long but they stayed in the marriage. But if you ask my dad, he acts like it was still full of love until she passed.
Thank you I really like this video. I’m always on TH-cam and there’s so much negativity on here. It’s really nice and refreshing to see something as positive as this cause sometimes as a single woman I do worry about meeting good guys.
aww i love this trend!!! i wanna see more of this!!! i need all the advice from men in happy marriages to make sure my hunny will always feel like i love him & truly value him!!!
I'm about to get married, and I want it to really be till death do us part. I'm reading the book The Seven Principles For Making Marriage Work by John Gottman. He and other researchers spent decades studying failed marriages and happy marriages in a very scientific way. They found what makes marriages work and what makes them fail. It's very informative. There are a lot of things that really matter in a marriage that I wouldn't have even thought about. They're able to predict divorce with 91% accuracy so they definitely know what they're talking about.
There are actually tons of creators who make videos about being in healthy, long-term relationships, and marriages. The problem is that TH-cam suppresses this content because it's not divisive. They only promote content that is divisive. And all of us should question that.❤❤
Can you recommend any? I love watching love flourish, but I clicked on a couple of cynical videos years ago during my heartbreak and I feel like my algorithm's been femcel ever since😂
@ I promise you, the algorithms will never ever recommend positive content that promotes harmony among humans, unless it is 100% controlled. Or just AI video. Their version of AI video is pretty much undetectable. What I recommend is using different search terms like "believe in your spouse" or "husband and wife, discuss decades long marriage" - The reason being, you have to use kind of clever language to bypass the keywords. The algorithm is suppressing, like "harmonious heterosexual relationship relationships." I hope this helps! You can retrain your algorithm by resetting your search and watch history; I don't remember exactly how to do it, but there are many tutorials you can find.
I’m only 17 but I’ve met my soulmate almost 2 years ago and we want to live the rest of our life together :) everyday we do pretty much all of these things and the future is looking really bright
The world’s obsession to race will never stop exhausting me. We are at a point where we have to sound the alarm and say don’t take offence I’m a ‘person of colour’ 😭
It bewilders me that people will marry each other when they don’t even like each other or down on each other’s interests and hobbies. My husband is my favorite person in the world and he’s gotten me into some of my now favorite hobbies.
You don’t *need* a partner, but it’s okay to *want* a partner. It’s okay to *want* a life partner, but it’s important to have worked on yourself enough that you don’t feel like you “need someone to complete you”.
Hey you can do what you need to do but it doesn't have to be in comparison to someone else so someone else might not need a man and be independent there's no reason for us to invalidate them and be like oh well I'm not like them because I need a man badly badly badly that's okay because everybody have their reasons and it's all justified your desire to need a man is justified and a woman who doesn't need a man her reason is justified also she has her reasons. Let's just live in peace. And not try to Pitt ourselves against other people
I have to dismantle not believing this completely. I remember my ex thinking our relationship was happy… Just have to remember that healthy love does exist even behind closed doors and even if I haven’t personally seen it yet.
Nah, I've never liked the "I need a man" mentality. You should never wholly rely on someone. You should always be able to rely on yourself when the situation needs it--but it is fun and nice to know you have someone who wants to swoop in and lighten the load. But yes, you, as a woman, should know how to maintain your own home, even if your husband takes over that job. That's being an ADULT.
I saw a couple at a bar and they were both filming each other doing Karaoke like they were still fans of each other and I thought this is couple goals :)
My parents just celebrated 48 years married and they are definitely one of those couples. Friends in common, enjoy same hobbies, PDA, etc. I tell them they’re the reason none of their kids are married. Youngest is 33.
My mom and dad have been married for 35 years. It hasn’t always been easy, but they are both a product of divorce so I commend their commitment and it makes me accountable for my marriage. The biggest thing I noticed, in the hard times was their need for greater communication; something I now prioritize heavily with my husband. We are officially seven months in and have a lifetime to go!
My husband is my best friend. The minute he gets home, i become a parrot - talking nonstop 😂😂...He just laughs because he knows once i make sure he's okay, fed, and showered, I'll talk his ears off. The only issue is we are hardly ever apart. I hate travelling for work if he can't come with me. I have to encourage him to meet his friends - we're just so content being with ourselves.
To paraphase a quote that explains my own 16 year relationship...you change as people through life, a soulmate is someone you keep falling in love with at every stage. Every couple of years I look at my husband and it hits me that I fell in love with him again for the millionth time. And above all, grass is green where you water it. Communicate, listen, reciprocate, compromise, and don't bottle things up.
My parents have been married for 23 years, even though it was a second marriage for my dad and the third for my mom. It wasn't always nice and peaceful, but they value the history they made together and find each other to be good companions in everything.
My mom and step dad have been married for 17 years. My parents couldn’t be more opposite in many ways, my dad is an extrovert who loves to joke around and is really squeamish, my mom is an introvert who acts like a robot and is a farm girl aka ready for anything, physical or gross. My dad isn’t intellectually curious and a perfectionist whereas my mom is always exploring the world around her and is kinda go with the flow when things go wrong. But they have a really healthy marriage. They have separate friends, though both friend groups are more than happy to hang out with spouses around. They don’t often argue, but when they have conflict, they step away and if they both have a lot on their plates that week, they reschedule the discussion to a week when they are less busy. This gives them time to think over the problem and approach the discussion with less emotions. If a few discussions can’t clear up the conflict, then they go to marriage counseling. Everyone thinks marriage counseling is only for the last step before divorce, but it is actually a tool for helping moderate conflicts in a healthy marriage. They also have date night once a week (or every other week). My dad is obsessed with my mom’s attractiveness (can’t stop himself from wolf-whistling her, even in front of me). They both have problems with each other but they are open to talking and embracing the quirks that makes them who they are. Also, my grandparents on my mom’s side have been married for 63 years, and they are very similar. Both nothing alike, but very open to their partners, willing to see them for their strengths and their flaws.
I know how you can have a long and happy marriage. They should be your BFF first before you are lovers. See even when the honeymoon disappears, or even when the sex stops. You have always something to fall back on the friendship and memories you both made together. And maybe, just maybe you will achieve that very very rare and the most Ultimate special type of love. Consummate Love: Consummate love is the deeper type of love where you really don't care if they are with you romantically or not all you care about is having this person in your life forever. The type of love where you don't really care what happens in your life as long as they are by your side you'll be just fine. The type of love where every time you wake up with them everyday is fuking beautiful. The type of love that is extremely hard to break but also really hard to have. However the darkerside of this love. If it does end it will hurt like absolutely nothing like you have ever experienced before. This type of love is like any other relationships it's something you have to work at. It's something you have to put time into. It is something you have to make sure you make time for. But this love was the best feeling i ever had even more then drugs lol. Every time i saw him i couldn't stop smiling and no he wasn't my bf. We was more BFFWBs the problem is i felt this kind of love for him unfortunately he didn't feel the same back. However i want to feel this again even if it hurt really bad.
My 9 year anniversary when I started dating my wife is in a week and we just had our 5 year wedding anniversary. The issue why we're seeing so many single people and divorces is because it takes time and effort to be in a relationship. People don't want to put in the effort and will run away from the smallest inconvenience or "ick".
Long marriage doess t equate to happy marriage. Lots of women put up with abusive or cheating husband because they stay for their kids or cant support themselves
Happily married men watching this like 👀👀yall still don’t get it and never will get it and quietly walking away like 🚶🏾♂️➡️. The secret ingredient isn’t a secret it’s submission to God. God is the sovereign king of my life.
3:42 See and that’s why since a young age I knew not to shit talk men and I had positive male figures including my dad in my life so I had no reason to shit talk them in the first place😂 I might say something I’ve observed from their nature but not in a disrespectful way
Yeah I might be able to live independently as a woman. But would I choose it? Does it make me happy? NO! I WANT to be with a man, just have to find the right one. I want someone to call me back if I forget to say I love you back. It is so sweet to check in and make sure your woman is all good. I want a man who can make up for my short comings and vice versa.
I wish more people would realize that need means when you make someone a priority not that you absolutely need one. In the Bible Paul said it was good if an individual wanted to remain single. In ancient Israel women were praised for helping rebuild the wall and women could buy property and own businesses.
I hope to God that I have this now. Been with my partner for 5 years now and never made it this far. We never argue and already live like old folk chilling doing crosswords. Its pure peace and I hope it lasts.
It’s a young couple playing harmless jokes and laughing together. If she made a habit of it, maybe. But one time that results in them talking and sharing how important her “I love you” is to him…I think it will actually make their relationship stronger and more enduring if she can truly understand him more from it.

We are seeing less and less longlasting happy relationships some find it hard to believe it happens, doesnt mean their bitter.
@@5Demona5 She doesn't get bored. She leaves before they leave her. It's called no self esteem.
@@youreincredible1648 You're seeing less and less long lasting relationships, because you're spending too much time in he innanet. Yes, it does mean you're bitter.
I always hated the discourse in media about marriage. Its a beautiful thing to be in a relationship with someone for so long

Marriage is not for everyone. That’s why there is discourse
Yes. Especially the people that say marriage is a scam
@hanniefaerie Exactly. No one is complaining about ppl in happy marriages. The issue is you're expected to get married even if you dont want to
Every one that I know is happy and not married and I truly believe only suckers get married.
My Mom and dad was married 58 years. I'm so sad my dad died 2 years ago. I give my mom so much time since my dad died. God Bless her!!
And God bless YOU! ❤
❤❤❤
Sorry for your loss.🙏♥️
It would have been 28 years for my parents. He died 4 years ago at age 54.
I’m so sorry for your loss 💕

No such thing as too many hugs or kisses!
Right?
I do believe that the phrase "You don't need a man" is true, you don't *need* them, you're able to live without them, but you don't want to.
You WANT them, that for me is more important then "needing" them. Nothing is keeping you together but the pure love you feel for each other.
Exactly
I do believe the phrase men don’t need women is true but they want them b cause the both genders want each other.
2 things women need. God and men.
It's not. Men and women need eachother.
@KiddSlayer21 The same way everyone needs everyone, but one sex does not necessarily needs the other, we just need people to love.
In the very beginning of the video when the man was counting out how many people were married it made me cry, before my grandpa died last year, he had my grandma were married 66 years

My aunt and uncle have been married for 65 years. I only ask my auntie for marriage advice. ❤
what has been the best advice that she gave you? i feel like todays advice is so counter productive
YES!!!!!!!!
Much needed topic.
Whenever I want to give up on love and commitment I remind myself that such men exist.
Yes, they do. I'm married to one(36 years). Having standards, rules, and boundaries will eliminate 99.9% of the bs.

@@ammyjagain yup. It means your survival depends on them which is usually a lie, and if it is true, it's dangerous.
Happy spouse, happy house. 😍🙏🏽
I wish my parents were here for this. They were married for 61 years before my Mom made her transition.
Wdym?
I'm so sorry 😢
@@ange_does_gacha_art6640meaning her mom passed
My mom and dad have been married for 35 years. It hasn’t always been easy, but they are both a product of divorce so I commend their commitment and it makes me accountable for my marriage. The biggest thing I noticed, in the hard times was their need for greater communication; something I now prioritize heavily with my husband. We are officially seven months in and have a lifetime to go!
A great marriage is one that works for the couple. It may last a long time or a short time but in the end it served the couple we.
This is so nice to see. So many videos out there stealing my hope for a happy relationship. I have been ready to give up.
My husband is my best friend. The minute he gets home, i become a parrot - talking nonstop 😂😂...He just laughs because he knows once i make sure he's okay, fed, and showered, I'll talk his ears off.
The only issue is we are hardly ever apart. I hate travelling for work if he can't come with me. I have to encourage him to meet his friends - we're just so content being with ourselves.
"20 servings?!"
The beginning of this video made me cry 🥹
My mom and dad were married 43 years. If he was still alive, they would be married 51 years.
I don't need an abusive man to help me assemble furniture around my house. I'll hire help for that. 🙌
I love this content❤
To paraphase a quote that explains my own 16 year relationship...you change as people through life, a soulmate is someone you keep falling in love with at every stage. Every couple of years I look at my husband and it hits me that I fell in love with him again for the millionth time. And above all, grass is green where you water it. Communicate, listen, reciprocate, compromise, and don't bottle things up.
My parents have been married for 23 years, even though it was a second marriage for my dad and the third for my mom. It wasn't always nice and peaceful, but they value the history they made together and find each other to be good companions in everything.
Wow I love this channel. It spread positivity and love. I want to build a relationship of that nature. I suscribed
Even as a Black Pill MGTOW, happily married people make me happy. I just wish long happy marriages weren't so rare.
I don’t believe they are rare, people in happy marriages don’t just like over sharing . That’s if they even share
My mom and step dad have been married for 17 years. My parents couldn’t be more opposite in many ways, my dad is an extrovert who loves to joke around and is really squeamish, my mom is an introvert who acts like a robot and is a farm girl aka ready for anything, physical or gross. My dad isn’t intellectually curious and a perfectionist whereas my mom is always exploring the world around her and is kinda go with the flow when things go wrong. But they have a really healthy marriage.
They have separate friends, though both friend groups are more than happy to hang out with spouses around. They don’t often argue, but when they have conflict, they step away and if they both have a lot on their plates that week, they reschedule the discussion to a week when they are less busy. This gives them time to think over the problem and approach the discussion with less emotions. If a few discussions can’t clear up the conflict, then they go to marriage counseling. Everyone thinks marriage counseling is only for the last step before divorce, but it is actually a tool for helping moderate conflicts in a healthy marriage.
They also have date night once a week (or every other week). My dad is obsessed with my mom’s attractiveness (can’t stop himself from wolf-whistling her, even in front of me).
They both have problems with each other but they are open to talking and embracing the quirks that makes them who they are.
Also, my grandparents on my mom’s side have been married for 63 years, and they are very similar. Both nothing alike, but very open to their partners, willing to see them for their strengths and their flaws.
Beautiful love stories! I am praying for mine, with God at the center ❤ Amen
Something i just thought about. Ur mate should be looked at as family. And we have been with our family since birth and were basically inceprepable.
Thanks for tagging everyone ❤
That trend was silly, people damaging their relationships for clicks n clout is not very clever.
I know how you can have a long and happy marriage.
They should be your BFF first before you are lovers.
See even when the honeymoon disappears, or even when the sex stops. You have always something to fall back on the friendship and memories you both made together.
And maybe, just maybe you will achieve that very very rare and the most Ultimate special type of love.
Consummate Love:
Consummate love is the deeper type of love where you really don't care if they are with you romantically or not all you care about is having this person in your life forever.
The type of love where you don't really care what happens in your life as long as they are by your side you'll be just fine.
The type of love where every time you wake up with them everyday is fuking beautiful.
The type of love that is extremely hard to break but also really hard to have.
However the darkerside of this love. If it does end it will hurt like absolutely nothing like you have ever experienced before.
This type of love is like any other relationships it's something you have to work at.
It's something you have to put time into.
It is something you have to make sure you make time for.
But this love was the best feeling i ever had even more then drugs lol.
Every time i saw him i couldn't stop smiling and no he wasn't my bf.
We was more BFFWBs the problem is i felt this kind of love for him unfortunately he didn't feel the same back. However i want to feel this again even if it hurt really bad.
My 9 year anniversary when I started dating my wife is in a week and we just had our 5 year wedding anniversary. The issue why we're seeing so many single people and divorces is because it takes time and effort to be in a relationship. People don't want to put in the effort and will run away from the smallest inconvenience or "ick".
2:44 don’t prank your man like that.. not cute
The only happy couples are the ones where both partners are 10s.
Long marriage doess t equate to happy marriage. Lots of women put up with abusive or cheating husband because they stay for their kids or cant support themselves
You are very right on the long marriage not equating to happy marriage but we can’t deny that alot of people are truly enjoying happy marriages.
@@ammyjagainDefinitely not the majority, and it's okay to admit it.
Probably shouldn’t say “partner”. A partner can be anyone. A husband or wife is very specific.
Partner is inclusive. If you want to recommend something to be more specific and more inclusive, Spouse would be a better word.
Just remember when marriages last long the woman usually had to put up with a LOT!!!!
Happily married men watching this like 👀👀yall still don’t get it and never will get it and quietly walking away like 🚶🏾♂️➡️. The secret ingredient isn’t a secret it’s submission to God. God is the sovereign king of my life.
So the happily married atheists don’t count. Got it
Yeah im real quiet I need my man. But hey yall do you what you want
3:42 See and that’s why since a young age I knew not to shit talk men and I had positive male figures including my dad in my life so I had no reason to shit talk them in the first place😂 I might say something I’ve observed from their nature but not in a disrespectful way
Yeah I might be able to live independently as a woman. But would I choose it? Does it make me happy? NO! I WANT to be with a man, just have to find the right one. I want someone to call me back if I forget to say I love you back. It is so sweet to check in and make sure your woman is all good. I want a man who can make up for my short comings and vice versa.
Lol, I wish you luck tho.
@@Seraphina-r1v yeah not going to be easy. 😅
I wish more people would realize that need means when you make someone a priority not that you absolutely need one. In the Bible Paul said it was good if an individual wanted to remain single. In ancient Israel women were praised for helping rebuild the wall and women could buy property and own businesses.
I hope to God that I have this now. Been with my partner for 5 years now and never made it this far. We never argue and already live like old folk chilling doing crosswords. Its pure peace and I hope it lasts.
Why did he skip 50?
Maybe the video just cut it out..
The 2 nd girl playing games will be divorced quick. He deserves better
Relax
It’s a young couple playing harmless jokes and laughing together. If she made a habit of it, maybe. But one time that results in them talking and sharing how important her “I love you” is to him…I think it will actually make their relationship stronger and more enduring if she can truly understand him more from it.
