As the late, great Barry White once sang in his smooth, silky baritone voice – Love Ain’t Easy.
Of course in the beginning it’s all butterflies and swooning, but after the initial romance it truly takes a special bond to become a team, to cultivate your love to survive the rough times as well as the good, and to come out smiling on the other side.

It’s pretty obvious that these lucky couples share a lifelong bond that only a lucky few will experience. Scroll down to check them out below, and feel free to share your own stories in the comments!
