Ours has lasted because, like you and your husband, we are best friends. We do everything together and set aside time every Sunday to just BE with each other, talk, be romantic, listen to music, have a glass of wine - and anything else that comes up. ;^) We committed to each other that we would never have any secrets between us and there would NEVER, EVER be any cheating.

we've been married for almost 16 years, he cheated after 1 1/2 of marriage, we worked it out, and we have never been happier or in a stronger relationship. what has made it so successful? trust, honesty, communication, good sense of humor!

I have been married for 15 years now separated, it is lacking alot of what you marriage currently has and are blessed with. Be glad God has blessed with these gifts needed in marriage, and be sure to thank him for what he has provided you. Good for you and both of you keep it up.

i've been married for 29 years it will be 30 in june. we only knew each other 3 weeks before we married. i joke that the reason the marriage has lasted as long as it has is because we worked separate shifts and didn't spend that much time together. seriously i'm his 3rd wife he's my 2nd husband. when his mom met me she said you seem like a nice girl and i'm not saying this because i don't like you but you need to get away from him as fast as you can because he will hurt you. well i didn't listen and yes we've had ups and downs but it's worked out so far. congrats on your 17 years in the age of divorce that saying something.

I've been married almost 24 yrs. The reason? A lot of give and take. And no desire to divorce.
