I've been married for eight years, and I still don't have a clear answer on whether long-term love is more about choosing to stay or about feelings that naturally evolve. We've had periods where the spark felt dim, but we worked through them by prioritizing communication and shared goals. Still, I wonder if some couples are just better matched from the start, making the choice easier. Do you think the success of a marriage depends more on the initial compatibility or on the daily decisions both partners make?
