00:00Believe me, if you want your relationship to last in the long term,
00:02You need 3 out of 4 of these ingredients.
00:04The truth is that being in love is unfortunately not enough to weather all the storms.
00:08Every day you see people who genuinely love each other tearing each other apart.
00:10And I'm not afraid to say it, you can sincerely love a person,
00:13but still having to let her go if these ingredients aren't there.
00:15The first is loyalty.
00:16I think we can almost all agree here that we can forgive almost anything.
00:20But a lack of loyalty can destroy what forgiveness cannot repair.
00:23Trust.
00:24The second ingredient is having a minimum of emotional intelligence.
00:27Knowing how to communicate, respecting you, even when you disagree.
00:30Because a relationship has its ups and downs, but it's only in the downs that we
00:33reveals our true nature.
00:34So I advise you to get yourself into trouble as soon as possible.
00:37The third ingredient is having aspirations, a vision, and shared projects for the future.
00:41There's a quote that says love isn't about looking at each other.
00:44It's about looking together in the same direction.
00:46It's at this stage that you think you've found the right person.
00:49Just share the message or tag her in the comments.
00:51The final ingredient for me is the concept of commitment.
00:53Find someone who understands that love isn't limited to romantic feelings.
00:56that it was also a choice.
00:57Who understands that even if love isn't always a smooth ride,
01:00He will always prefer to fight alongside you, rather than replace you.
