It is very disturbing that a large number of marriages in the United 
States end in divorce. It is evident that many couples failed in creating a strong and satisfying marriage. Although
 most couples want a lasting marriage, the reality of living with 
another human being and the challenges of everyday life make it hard for
 many couples to survive.
Although divorce rate is rising and marriage life is complicated, 
there is still hope because creating a lasting marriage is not 
impossible. There are couples who were able to survive and stayed 
married for years. These couples found the secrets of creating a strong and satisfying marriage.
 Challenges are always part of any marriage and all marriages change 
over time but with dedication and hard work, couples can keep a strong 
and lasting relationship. Here are the three important tips in creating a strong and satisfying marriage:
Nurture love and friendship in your marriage. It is important to keep
 nurturing love and friendship in your marriage. If you will let the 
daily challenges of marriage ruin your love and friendship, creating a strong and satisfying marriage
 can be very hard. Simple acts of kindness, openness, appreciation, 
thoughtfulness, concerns and consideration with each other are some of 
the things that couples can do to nurture love and friendship which are 
the important ingredients of long lasting marriage.
Respect and accept each unconditionally. Although it is good for 
people to change for the better, it is important that spouses accept 
each other completely. Imposing change into something or someone can be 
very stressful and frustrating. It can hurt your marriage and can drive 
your spouse away. Even if you both agree on certain things, you have to 
be open to the fact that you also have differences.  
Respect and 
acceptance are important in creating a strong and satisfying marriage.
Commitment. Dedication to make the marriage work is very important in
 achieving a long lasting marriage. If two people are both committed, 
surviving the difficult times in the relationship can be very possible. 
Commitment is giving yourself to the relationship to make it last. It 
may require sacrificing some of your preferences to make the 
relationship work.
Creating a strong and satisfying marriage requires a lot of work and 
commitment. A long lasting marriage can be attained if you know what to 
do.
