These are:* Self-Esteem - if you don't love yourself you will find it almost impossible to accept love from others.* Friendship - a strong friendship will sustain your marriage even when feelings of love are harder to find.* Laughter - it will improve your quality of life, your health and your relationships* Romance - feeling close to your partner can be the glue which holds your relationship together through the rough patches, but the absence of romance causes a void that problems will easily fill.","author":"Karen M Gray","tags":["christian-marriage","divorce","marriage-problems","restore-marriage"],"id":103606,"author_id":"Karen+M+Gray"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":2,"pages":1}}
