The love which is needed to stabilize a relationship is of the type of love God display to each of us – an unconditional commitment to an imperfect person.
This takes energy and effort. It means caring about the other person as much as you care about yourself.

Love and relationships requires the ability to put yourself in your partner’s place, to understand that the differences of two unique personalities rather than betrayals of your hopes and dreams.

Unconditional willingness of each of you to understand and resolve these differences through the sharing of your deepest feelings, concerns, attitudes and ideas is a fundamental component of love and relationships.

Postponement of your need for instant gratification when your partner feels no such need
sharing the struggle to triumph over adversities as well as sharing joys and delights of being together
nurturing each other in defeat caused by forces beyond your control
renewing each other’s courage to prevail in the face of despair
carrying out obligations and responsibilities as a flower rather than as a hundred pound knapsack
acknowledging everyday value of your partner in look, a smile, a touch of the hand, a voiced appreciation of a meal or a new hair style, a spontaneous trip to a movie or a restaurant
trusting partner always to be there when needed
knowing that he or she always has your best interests at heart even when criticism is given
loyalty and dedication to each other in the face of sacrifices that may have to be made.

These are the most important components of a successful love and relationships that many of us failed to know about.

Once you line up all these components in your relationship, you will be able to save your troubled marriage or relationship.
