Growing up, I witnessed my parents’ enduring love (43 years and counting!), which inspired me to share the 13 pillars that make a marriage truly unstoppable.

Get ready for a frank and fun conversation!

1. Respect: The Foundation
No respect, no love. Period. Respect each other’s opinions, ways of being, and desires. Respect EVERYTHING about each other!

2. Blind Trust
Work on trust daily. With total surrender, trust comes naturally. Easier than you think!

3. Admiration: The Love Elixir
Admire each other! Acknowledge achievements, offer sincere praise, and repeat daily. You’ll be amazed every day!

4. Fun: Break the Routine!
Step out of your comfort zone! Trips, nights out with friends, movies, amusement parks… Have Fun to avoid monotony!

5. Kisses and Hugs: Showing Affection
Who doesn’t love affection? Quick kisses, tight hugs… It’s free and works!

6. Praise: Strengthen Your Love
When you feel like praising, do it! 10, 20 times a day. Good things should be said!
