What common traits are important for a long-lasting successful relationship?

There has to be Trust, Respect, understanding, Forgivness, and humor. Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my hear.

Moe, pretty much summed it all up in a nutshell. :-) Freedom is also another trait. Having the space and time to spend with your friends without needing to be with each other 24/7. You let him go to pub crawls with his mates and you go clubbing with your girl friends without thinking someone is going to miss up or cheat.

Trust, honesty, loyalty, respect, forgiveness, understanding, happiness, love, maturity, compassion, communication, the ability to compromise and say sorry, the ability to talk things out.. There’s a lot. The most important thing is how you treat each other, though.

uhmm, well. -trust -communication -to be sure that your partner will always be there for you no matter what. -humor -to be positive that neither of you two are financially dependant on one another. -love -to understand one another.. And thats some of the many things.(: Good Luck! :D

Has to be compromise, and communication.

understanding, commitment , trust, communication, …………. and so on

Trust Communication Love Sexual Chemistry Fun

Definitely has to be trust, compromise, Love, energy, commitment, Just both people have to be working towards the relationship, and yeah some attraction would be nice too!

Intelligence and humor. For me not having those two in common with someone is a NO NO. then trust is also very important.

trust,love,good communication,supporting eachother,respect,care,being able to juggle your time to spend it with them,a balance of being happy and feeling good about eachother and being the one to furfil their needs , thats the main ones i can think of :) xxxx

love (unselfish love) and repect

Its all those things people typicly say (trust love humor etc) but it also comes down to the little stuff…like holding hands and stoping mid sentence and saying i love you or even a reasurring squeeze on the leg. I’ve been with my boyriend for almost a year and in all seriousness still feels like the first week we went out. It’s not because we dont ever see each other either, in fact we see each other every single day unless we have something to do (doctor, event, etc) and it really is all the little things that build a long lasting loving relationship. :)

haha dis is true b able to hang out wit friends n spend time away but da clubbin wud b 2 much 4 me haha he shud go clubbing wit me =] lol

Two people who would sacrifice for the sake of togetherness. It is not a moral attribute as much as it is a lifestyle choice. Relationship people usually do not make it on their own for too long and vica versa. It is inert. This is my own conclusion. I also feel that people who do better on their own are more selfish in some area’s, making it difficult to share their lives. (me). It doesnt mean that I dont want to, I am just not good at it.

it must be God centered…it says all…

Being Yourself [: <3

communication,honesty,TRUST.ect

Basically what everyone is saying. Trust, humor (BIG ONE), communication (Another big one), love, understanding

jokes. memories. trust. and comunication

SORRY, I MEANT RESPECT

When I find one, I’ll tell you.

No matter what great traits and time afforded that you can bring to the table, if the other party either doesn’t know what they want or are just unwilling to fully commit, nothing you do or are will matter at all!

the MOST IMPORATANT one you should always rember is TRUSTING each other always bc if you dont have trust then theirs no point always telling each other how much you guys love each other nd miss each other
