What is the key to a successful marriage?

I know there is not just one thing that will cause a marriage to be successful. But if you had to choose just one, what would you say if the most important thing?What is the key to a successful marriage?
Depends on what is most important to you and your spouse. But the norm, I think are:





Communication - talk whenever you have a problem or think there is a potential problem. Holding it in can explode later on.





Honesty - If you need to hide anything from your spouse, then maybe you don't trust them enough? The fear of being judged can really keep a person tongue tied.





Interest - Keep it alive by doing new things with each other. Whether planning a trip every few months to somewhere new. Or a big vacation to another country.





Passion - Be open to new ideas. But if it is not your cup of tea, don't be afraid to tell your spouse.





Sacrifice - Sometimes giving up stubborness to try or do something for the other person can mean everything in the world. It's the little things that count.What is the key to a successful marriage?
Understanding. Being able to talk to your spouse and step back and realize that small fights really arent that important to fight over. Also, laughter is one of the most important things for me. My husband is in Japan right now, and laughing at and with each other keeps us sane. :)
