I agree with those who belive that love alone is not enough to have asucessful marriage cause of  some of the circumstances that u will face with ur husband like saving money and raising ur kids ….etc and u need someone to respect the meaning of life itself . u don't need his love only to ge things right with the one u love . what about u guys what do u think men should give their wives besides love and what about u men . what a woman should give    her husband besides love?

i think  marriage is successful when there is mutual understanding and respect between couples they must share and respect their opinion each other, without this marriage will be predestined adn also devotion is so essential for relationships

I have once asked to elder people who has been being married for years that love is not the only thing that can make a long life marriage. More than that, after being a couple "behavior" is most important. How's a husband protect, guard and educate his wife. How's a wife respect her husband. How they understanding each other and accept their couple as they are. And u know sometimes for people who not marriage coz of love, love its self can appear after marriage cause by good natures/characters from their couple.

in my opinion love is very important and needed in marrige life but by the time love will take different shape like doing what the other member likes and leave what he hates  ,  gradually and slowly one essential thing is more important   is understanding between both of them so they can live in                           a harmony , fianlly love is  necessayr but not everytnig but we need it   some time
