Ladies, what do you feel are the qualities about your partner that you think make your long-term relationship with them successful? I've been dating someone for 3 years now and we've been talking marriage of late... I don't know why, but I'm so apprehensive of this leap. What does it take for a successful marriage to happen, according to you? I know I'm with a good man, but what are those little things that go amiss when you're considering a more solid relationship??

A man that doesn't give up as soon as there's an inconvenience. a man that understands the ohases of a woman's cycle and how to regulate his own and your emotions around it (that being said, I strongly believe you are responsible for self-regulation but there are times you could use an understanding, warm person to help with the tougher days when hormones start messing with you) and an overall nice human being who is nice not only to you but to humankind in general. That's my two cents

My husband is genuinely a good man and a hard worker. He doesn’t make as much money as I do, but he more than makes up with how he treats me and how hard he works. What showed me he was not only the one but a rare breed was his dedication to evening our mental load. At work I have a much higher mental load and my love language is acts of service so when I wake up on my days off and see he got out of bed early to clean the house and start breakfast so I can relax into my weekend is huge. He always says “you bring 60 percent of the income and mental workload so it’s my duty to do 60% at home to help you combat that” 60/40. It’s all about if you feel he’s a good partner you can see yourself being able to grow with through life.

If you feel apprehensive, that's the universe telling you that it's not the right person/time. Don't do it. You really know when you've either met the right person, or are ready.

If you are not ready to take the leap or apprehensive about long term feasibility, then don’t do it. All marriages take work and mutual effort/sacrifice —every partnership is different and it really boils down to both peoples needs and personal definition of what makes a marriage successful. When I met my spouse there was no doubt in my mind that they were different and that I wanted a future with them. 15 years later we are still together, there have been some rough spots, and I know we can get through anything life throws at us. This is a combination of mutual respect, support, connection, and adaptation. It works for us.

Hi all,
Need your advice. One of our worker’s wife is fighting cancer. We know that he needs to take care of her and work the same time to cover medical bills. So we decided to collect money for him. Should I do it secretly and only let him know after I’m done collecting money or should I get his permission first? I need to figure out which way would be less uncomfortable for him. Thanks!
