Will be 6 years on August 28th.

I don't think international marriages are any stronger, I think it depends on the couple.

We have both changed so much in the six years since we've been together, and I feel that respect and trust are the most important things to us.

The sex has obviously slowed down since we first met, but we're both in our 50's, and I think that's to be expected!!!! haha

4 years in November.

Depends on the couple, no idea if multicultural has any influence at all.

I say respect and same intellect are very important. All the rest in the list is also very important but respect comes first for me.
