101 Secrets To Building Happy Lasting Relationships

Dating and marriage are different than they were twenty years ago. In today's society, more than 50% of all marriages fail for one reason or another. Just thinking about that makes "commitment" seem pretty scary. When relationships are faced with challenges, many people quit trying. Dating is more like a marathon, trying to date as many people as possible instead of taking time to get to know someone at a deeper level. For married couples, divorce is not biased. Whether married for thirty years or eight months, the outcome can be the same.

 The fact is, relationships, whether dating or married, are a lot of work. Things don't always go perfectly, couples fight and it takes a 100% commitment from both parties to make the relationship a success. Often, when people break off a relationship, they feel as though something is missing. The "spark" has gone, leaving one or both individuals feeling inadequate and unfulfilled.

Even though the odds are not very good, healthy and long-lasting relationships are certainly possible as proven by many successful couples. Look at Paul Newman and Joanne Woodard, Danny Devito and Rhea Perlman, or Nancy and Ronald Reagan. What secrets do they possess? The answer is they all work hard at their relationships. They made a conscious choice to love their mate rather than rely on the "warm and fuzzy" feelings everyone knows will fade. By making love a choice you are making a decision to stay with it even in bad times.

Think of it like choosing a car. You pick the make, the model, the year. You pick the color and other features you feel are best for you. After driving your new car for a couple of months, you realize perhaps you should have purchased a larger car, or maybe the leather seats would have been better, or on hot sunny days, a sunroof would have been great. However, it is now too late. You choose to keep your car and make it work. It's the same for marriage. Not everything will be perfect and there will be major obstacles to overcome, but you've made your decision and now you choose to make it work.

There are hundreds of things you can do to better your relationship. To get you going in the right direction, we've chosen over a hundred ways to help you build, strengthen, and enhance your relationship.

Remember, little steps taken every day will lead to great success.
