How long have you been married with the love of your life? One, two, three years, or have you been together for a long time? Finding the right person for you is hard, especially if you want to look for someone who can tolerate your attitude and bring out the best in you at the same time. Moreover, falling in love is easy but staying in love for many years is hard. But, having been married for seventy years, this couple proved that love can last a lifetime. Plus, they managed to stay in love until their last breath.
According to studies, being in love with the person does not guarantee that the relationship will work. Thus, the couple needs to have understanding, patience, and compatibility. But the very first thing you need is to be “In Love” to achieve this goal and everything else will follow.
The Couple who have been In love for Seven Decades
Preble Staver and Isabell Whitney studied in Philadelphia. Staver was born on October 17, 1921, and Whitney on October 31 of the same year. Moreover, this is proof that they are really meant to be together. Further, the couple met on a blind date and they had been head over heels with each other ever since. When the U.S. entered the Second World War, the couple signed up to help their country. It was a rough time for them and they were not given the chance to see each other.
