3 years, so far, and we're on and off. We're trying to communicate better, and I think overall, with a baby, we're doing pretty good!

I've been with J for 5 years, and hopefully there are many more years with him.

Haha I'm so not voting on this yet! 7 months so far, and it's my longest relationship, but I expect many more happy months/years to come

Ditto the best friends part, being honest, and being respectful.

"Determination, respect for each other and ourselves, honesty, friendship with each other and something that many forget...a great sense of humor and the ability to laugh at yourself. Also being able to accept when you are wrong and having the courage to say you are genuinely sorry and apologize. When you are right and your partner is wrong, being gracious and humble when accepting their apology, goes a long way. Common interests, backgrounds and values help in the long run but I also know of couples who are vastly different from each other and still maintain a healthy and loving relationship."

I so agree.

My husband and I have been married for 14.5 years. We dated exclusively for three years before marriage. He's my best friend. He makes me laugh. Seeing him is always the highlight of my day. Sure, we have arguments and we have our downsides and some differing interests, but we are determined to work through them by never losing sight of the positive things which drew us together.

I've been with my man for almost 4 years (in March) and it feels like longer and shorter than that all at the same time. We've been through a LOT together, more than most people have endured in 10 years of a relationship. Our ability to communicate and offer each other support even in the really tough times has kept us deeply in love. We have so much in common and I've never known someone so fully. I look forward to many more years with him

The longest I've been in was about 3 1/2 years or so I think. My current relationship is about to hit 2 years.

Two and a half years (to be exact) but I feel it was the beginning of the end at about two years. After thoughtful retrospect, I think part of what kept us together for so long was the fear of being alone.

I was with my husband for about three and a half years. That was my first relationship. I didn't really know what I was doing and neither did he. We split up about eight months ago. It was pretty painful. I thought we'd be together forever and all that. Bleh.

At this point, almost 4 years with an ex of mine. My fiance and I will have been together just about 2 years when we get married in a few months (long story but it's been ongoing about a decade).

I've been with hubby since 1988. Hardly even remember how to do things without him around at this point.
i wish i felt that way about my bf! i've been with him almost 10 years and i'm not even sure if things are going to work out, it sucks because if it doesn't it's definitely going to be a waste of time. we keep trying to make things work because we've been together so long and we're attached to each other...long story

So far 3 years with mine going on 4 next May. It's all been long distance though and it's very hard, but we try to make it work.

I think the longest I know of though would be my grandparents as they were married over 50 years.

I have been with my hunny for 3 years and to be with him this long has taken alot from both of us. Taking the good with the bad and the bad with the ugly. you have to learn one another and love each other through everything of one another

My longest relationship that I have been in is the one I am currently in, 4 years.

My previous relationship was 2 years and 3 months long, which is the longest.

The relationship I am currently in is a couple months shy of a year. Here's to hoping it lasts a lifetime.
