Please don’t confuse never give up with chasing after someone who isn’t in it.

HE didn’t do it. They did it as a couple. Your question should have been how did THEY do it? Because one person cannot make a marriage last 50+ years. They both never gave up


Well said! I too have met many couples who have been married a long time and pretty much all of them have been through some really bad spots similar to what we see here. The difference is, like you said, both of them chose to work on the M.
