You know those couples that are always having a successful mutual understanding with each other, and really seem to be best friends? How do they do it? What makes their relationship work? Well, here are a few things that happy couples do to keep their marriage alive and help them to create a long-lasting successful relationship.

"A successful family is the root of successful society," said human development and family relations expert Maysa Kamal.

Kamal gives some tips for newly married couples seeking a happy relationship and successful marriage:

Tip 1: Stay away from those who have just ended a relationship because they give you negative energy.

Tip 2: From the beginning, couples should reach an agreement on financial issues at home including home expenses and a wife's pocket money. There is no such thing as being shy when it comes to speaking about money between a man and his wife.

Tip 3: Family shouldn't interfere in the financial affairs of a married couple as they could magnify the problem 10 times. A home is the kingdom of the couple and its secrets should only be between them. The couple could face huge problems that are beyond their ability to solve.

In that case, they should resort to a wise person or an expert in family guidance to solve it, provided they are discreet.

Tip 4: Look at the glass half full. We all have faults. So we should not complain because of a fault in a partner.

We should ask sociologists and experts how to deal with it. We should focus on the positive aspects of the partner's personality.

Tip 5: Express your love. Don't hide your feelings after marriage.

Husbands should always express their love to their wives by giving them presents no matter how small they are, and wives should express their love by showing respect to their husbands and saying kind words.

Tip 6: Partners should not interfere in other people's relationships, attitudes, and privacies. Advice only when asked.

Tip 7: Each partner should accept, love and respect the family of the other partner.

Ultimately, if both sides deal with one another with respect, love, wisdom, rationality and mercy, the marriage will be successful.
