If you're not right for each other, meaning miserable, then it's time to rethink and see if it can be fixed with counseling or if it's time to go separate ways.
My parents have been together for 49 years (omg i didn't think about this til now), however they are complete opposites of each other. By this I mean, my father is laid back, has a sense of humor, and is generally a smartass and know prankster. I have no problems with him, I have gotten better relationship with him as I got older.
Now my mother? Good god don't tell a joke in her presence, she won't get it. Everything is serious even if it's some tiny issue. She comes across as a ..... well.... I'd call her a bitch at times but since we have cleared up a few mental issues she's gotten a bit better. But the sense of humor is still a bit lacking. How the hell they survived these years I'll never know. I know they've been with each other with the good and bad .... lots of bad actually. Taken care of the other when the other was "down".
PS woodS I forgot to mention..... she had left her husband and was staying with me when it started.... Got a S/O in the house? I wouldn't recommend letting your best friend or such to stay longer than a couple of days. Maybe not at all.
