Marriages take work, commitment, and love, but they also need respect to
be truly happy and successful. A marriage based on love and respect
doesn't just happen. Both spouses have to do their part.Honesty and
trust become the foundation for everything in a successful marriage. But
unlike most of the other essentials on this list, trust takes time. You
can become selfless, committed, or patient in a moment, but trust always
takes time.
