“A few tips can help you have a long-lasting marriage but there is no laid down proven formula to it.
“You can marry someone you dated for 10 years and the marriage won’t last.
“You can marry someone you met yesterday and have a long-lasting marriage. And most times the main reason for a marriage crash is not revealed on social media. Only the couple know exactly what went wrong.
“Marriage is also not a do-or-die affair.
“Try your best to make it work, if it doesn’t, it’s not the end of the world. Wish yourselves well and move on.
“Some journeys last forever while some have to end for others to begin. Love and peace always.”
