20+ years healthy relationships?

[ItsShay]

People who’ve been in a relationship for 20+ years, what do you think helped you through the tough times?

The main path to a long term relationship is self governance and reliability and believability. If you can manage your personality and job and friendship and weight without somebody micromanaging you, and if you never do anything suspicious and never betray any expected moral rules, your relationship will last unless you are with an unreasonable person. I've never met somebody who followed those rules that was divorced.

Being very supportive of each others goals in life.
