Falling in love could very well be the best feeling in the world, right after tasting garlic bread for the first time. You get the chills, thrills, and butterflies in your tummy… All the good stuff! At least it starts that way. After some time the pink glasses fall off and you see a whole different person beside you. Luckily, there are exceptions to this depressing rule of thumb.
Once upon a blue moon two people fall in love and stay that way, long-long after the so-called “relationship expiration date”. What’s their secret? How many fights did they have throughout their marriage? We may never know the answers to these pressing questions, but there’s one thing they have in common – their everlasting love to each other.
