11 Secrets Happily Married Lifelong Couples Would Tell You If You Cared To Ask

I have always been of the opinion that the best marriage advise anyone can get is from couples who have been happily married for years, preferably the ones going gray already. I think the insight and experience they have to share is unrivaled. It's always so heartwarming to see two wrinkled and gray lovebirds being all lovey-dovey. It just figures that their advice can help you get what they have. I believe these are 10 of their secrets that they would gladly share if you asked to know.

1. They always tell each other what they’re thinking

2. They continue to date each other

3. They have children

4. They argue with a purpose rather than for the sake of arguing

5. They don’t complain unless they have a solution

6. They express gratitude

7. They recognize that their marriage comes first

8. They prioritize pillow talk

9. They nurture common interests

10. They use trust and forgiveness daily

11. They hug each other frequently
