We've Come a Long Way, Baby: 7 Secrets of a 20-Year Marriage

This is the twentieth year I've spent with my husband Charlie. We've been through a lot together: we drank a lot and then got sober. I've gained and lost hundreds of pounds (he's done some of the same). We've gotten much older and more tired. And now, for nearly two years, we've had my mother living with us and struggling with massive medical issues. It's been hard, yo. But through it all, we've stayed in love. Not always madly in love, not always happy with each other, not always connected to each other -- yet that love is always there. So how have we done it? Well, it's been work, but I thought I'd share with you what we've learned so far. These 7 tips might seem a bit general and vague, but they've worked for us for 20 years. - By Cecily Kellogg
