Insight: Nov 2

Could you stay with the same person for over 50 years?

Tonight on Insight host Kumi Taguchi talks to couples who have been through some of the toughest challenges a relationship can face and how they have lasted the distance through thick and thin.

Relationships are tough. They often require hard work and a level of commitment from both parties to be together even when it all seems too hard; when it feels easier to just walk away.

Those difficulties can appear when you’re in the early months of the relationship, and the hardest part is figuring out what you have in common and working through the differences as they emerge.

Maybe it’s before marriage, mortgage repayments and children, or before in-laws start to develop too much of an opinion on the whole thing.

But for some couples, those outside forces working against them show up thick and fast. It’s a battle from the beginning to stay together.
