What do you think makes a marriage Successful?

For a marriage to be successful, the couple must come together to make the union work because one person effort would not make it work perfectly.
I'll list some of the things that makes marriages work;

  1. Love: Love is a feeling of attraction towards someone, for a marriage to be successful love is needed at it's peak because love conquers it all. In a loveless marriage there will be chaos and violence will be the order of the day but in a marriage that the foundation is love a lot of flaws will be overlooked.

How do couples navigate conflicts in a healthy way?

Well, conflict in a marriage is inevitable because there will always be conflict because they are two individuals trying to cohabit, so the right approach to conflict is communicating, in order to navigate conflict in a healthy way couples are usually advised to communicate their feelings effectively concerning an issue and not holding back so it doesn't accumulate and cause a long lasting grudge. The person at fault is obligated to render an apology so the issue is resolved at ease.

Do you consider the distance between spouses and cultural differences a problem in marriage? Why?

No, when there is undying love a forms of differences can be sorted out . This is because it is an issue of the heart and love always conquers all. So far there is a means of communicating then all other differences are minor.
