Having a successful relationship is never easy, it is lots of work between the two and there are a few factors that are most important.

Firstly, one of the most important and complicated aspects in a relationship is to know each other.

In my country there is a saying: "one lifetime is no enough to know someone". This saying means: people change frequently, depending on many factors. I know people who decided to divorce after 30 to 40 years of marriage because they didn't know their partner. All the family members were affected after they made the decision.

If you are looking for your other half, I don't recommend just see the good things, you must also see the bad things and decide if you can survive with the bad things, then for sure you can have a good married life. Many things happen when you have many years of marriage and it's very important to pay attention when you see any big changes or when something happens.

Communication is also crucial in a relationship. You need to share your thoughts and feelings with your partner very often. In the meantime, you need to support your partner in completing their projects and fulfilling aspirations.

Spending time with your partner and sharing activities together are also very necessary; there is never too much time you can spend with each other. Now people spend a lot of time on their "smart phones" and much less time with parents, partners or children. People prefer to pay more attention to their social media then their own family, the unfortunate part is that time never comes back.  What’s more, sharing household chores is to help your partner and have things get done a lot faster; in that way, burden is not just on one person. When two people are sharing responsibilities, people can truly bond.

So knowing each other, communication, spending time together and sharing household chores are important factors in a successful relationship. None of them can be missing.
