Are you in a relationship? My grandparents have been married for 58 lovely years, and still very much in love. We went to a QuinceaƱera house party a few months back. And let me say, I felt the love radiating off those two from across the room. Her hand rested on his knee, he leaned in, she puckered her lips and their lips met. The tops of her cheeks flushed with emotion. Just like teenagers in love. Cue Dion and the Belmonts.
So this got me thinking, in a world with sky-high divorce rates, how do you make love last? Couples are engaged longer than the length of their marriage.
I asked my grandfather what the key to marriage is. His response, “Patience. A mountain of patience.” But don’t let him fool you. On special occasions, he ceremoniously sends roses to my grandma with two dozen roses paired with a handwritten love note. Ladies and gents, the man still knows how to whoo his woman.
