This year 75 percent of my friends either got engaged or tied the knot. This is for all of you.
The four pillars of a long lasting (and happy) relationship.
Love. The foundation of every relationship. It occurs when you care about someone. Interestingly, you can love someone without even liking them. Key words are compassion, trust, respect.
Like. To like someone means enjoying spending time with that person. Being friends. Key words are laughter, fun, interest.
Lust. Don't underestimate the importance of this one. Wanting to hold your partner, to kiss them, to make love. If the sizzle is gone, the relationship loses intensity. Finding each other attractive is vital for longevity.
Learn. Partners must inspire each other. Impress each other. Push each other to new places. Challenge and motivate your partner, learn from them, and teach them.

This is a TV series called GIA in 1998. I was searching for someting else and i found these memorable quotes
Believe me they are titled just that
Francesco: I know, I know. Life is so disappointing. Here you are. You have arrived. You are here. This is your moment. What do you have? You have pain. You have everything. What do you have? You have nothing. Everything is right, or everything is wrong. It's disappointing, it's confusing. This is life. What can we do?
Gia Carangi: People keep going away from me, that hurts.
Francesco: Work. You have a gift, use it. Life, life will be there later. When you have worked, and you have lived, and you know who you are, life is easy. Work. It's the only answer I know.
Gia Carangi: I should have been a rock star. But I can't sing.
Francesco: Work now. You'll live later, hm?
Gia Carangi: Hmm, hmm. You'd say anything to get that shot.
Francesco: Hmm, yeah. In this case I am saying the truth.
