In your opinion, what makes a relationship last?

I'm talking about it lasting because the people involved want to stay together, not other factors in which they are miserable but stay together anyway (e.g. kids).

What factors do you think are most important?

For me it's trust and being able to be comfortable talking about pretty much anything.

I agree with with what you've just said.

A relationship will succeed if there's a strong connection between the two :yep:

When i'm not in it
Trust and communication :smile:
Where people still make an effort with surprises, gifts, dates etc.
All of the above and mutual acceptance of each other's independence.
Not breaking up.

Trust, when you want the same things in life e.g both do or don't want kids, feeling comfortable enough to tell your partner anything and also still being able to have fun together.

The male being the winner.

So if you have a male who is a loser in comparison to female and her social circles it's not going to work for long.
