Here's what our readers have to say
Katie Hoffer: "My grandparents were married 61 years. I asked my grandfather the secret of a long happy marriage like theirs. He looked lovingly at my grandmother and said 'Never stop dating and never go to bed angry. Wake every morning with a hug and a kiss and always hold hands.'"
Katie O'Brien-Herlihy: "I've been with mine since high school, this year will be 21 years for us. I think we are still in love since I have a 17, 15 and a 1-year-old. LOL. And he's been a goof for the past 20 years. That's what keeps me smiling.
Cindi Clauser-Reitz: "Twenty-six years here. Remember that you made a commitment. We believe in fixing something that becomes broken. Don't throw it away."
Ginger Outlaw: "I'm married since May 2005 and I just ignore him. LOL. Nowadays people don't work through marriage; instead they find a divorce to be easy way out! Sad but true.
Kathryn Kroboth: "Harold and I are married 56 years and counting. We just put up with each other. He's like his mother and is quiet. I'm the one with a temper! We enjoy each other's company and enjoy the same things, like walking and traveling."
Susie Behler: "We got married on Valentine's Day, 1996. This is the longest one for me. My hubby is a good man. We give each other our space, and he is a good father to my kids. Hard worker too.
Mary Jo Eidle: "My husband Ryan and I have been married since Aug. 19, 2000, and high school sweethearts since Jan. 5, 1990.
My tips is: You can't let him think he wins, and sometimes you have to let him think he wins ... I would say that goes for the both of us. You have to keep each other in check I guess.
Jamie and Bill Solomon: "Bill and I will be married 45 years! He is the love of my life. We look forward to everyday making each other happy with little gestures, a kiss, a hug, a walk, a bike ride, something we do together! Give and take and compromise are golden. We look forward to the rest of our life together! We are spending our 45th anniversary in the Bahamas!
