According to a relationship coach, couples need to make these 5 promises to stay together forever.
Promises are made to be kept, aren’t they? They are therefore not to be formulated in the wind, and must be respected. A relationship coach delivered on the Your tango website the 5 promises that couples must formulate to stay together forever.
1 – I promise to love you every day
This is the promise that we make in front of the altar for our wedding. Love yourself, in all circumstances, in all moods. Do not lose sight of this love, and maintain it again and again so as to never see it fade away. : “I know that love is a choice, and I choose to love you always. Even though I can be busy and have my moods, you deserve my love and attention every day. I choose to love you even when I’m upset or frustrated“, notably quoted the coach.

2 – I promise to choose you first
However, making yourself a priority is necessary in life, for your well-being and, subsequently, that of others. Let’s say here that the partner is chosen first over the others : “You are the most important person in my life and I promise not to take you, or our relationship, for granted every day. Even though work, home, finances, family, friends, hobbies, and other stresses and distractions can make it difficult, I choose you first, always“.
3 – I promise to assume my responsibilities
Questioning yourself is sometimes the most beautiful proof of love there is. Listen to the other, realize your mistake, understand it and sincerely apologize for it. This also applies to facts that do not necessarily concern your partner : “I understand that my results are 100% dependent on my own choices and actions and that my thoughts and feelings are my own. I know that our relationship is a mirror that reflects me and that my desire to be happy and feel loved by you depends on my ability to allow myself to be happy and receive your love“.

4 – I promise to say ‘yes!’
This is not about the ‘yes’ of marriage, although that may be part of it. Rather, it means responding positively to the desires and constructive expectations of your partner, to move your relationship forward. : “You deserve my positive response even when I don’t want it. Your needs and desires are a gift to my growth and well-being and the key to a beautiful life together. I am committed to your happiness as much as to my own. If I am unable to 100% fulfill your desire or request, I will respond positively and work with you to find a creative way to meet your underlying needs“.

5 – I promise to be your hero
Being the hero of your partner, isn’t that beautiful? This does not necessarily involve heroic acts strictly speaking, but by always making him or her smile, even on days when morale is not high, someone who always pleads in your favor, “who will love and support you unconditionally, no matter what. I am committed to being your hero and helping you feel emotionally and physically safe. I believe in you and I believe in us“explains the coach.
