There are several challenges that bewilder couples on their journey of love.

Financial challenges: financial challenges place a lot of threat to a relationship. When the financial capability of the home tends to dwindle, problems may start to find it way in. Finding a legitimate way to source for income for the family is of paramount implementation.

Childlessness is a challenge that could be faced. But what they need here is to seek medical attention and help.

Third party interference is also a challenge to some couples; but what they need to do to over come this is to always keep their family matters secret.

Cultural and religious background is also a challenge; that is why some ethnic group in some part of the world would not support their children getting married to an individual with a different cultural and religious background.

Individual habit could also poss a threat.

There are quite a lot of challenges that are usually faced by couples who are in a long term relationship. Some of these challenges are:

(1) sometimes disconnected (lack of) communications.

(2) boredom (monotony); whatever the causes.

(3) loss of attractiveness (getting old).

(4) changes (shift) in life goals.

(5) the emergence of problems of economic needs.

(6) dispute between family members and relatives.

(7) the emergence of sexual problem (decreased function).

(8) differences of opinion and insight.

(9) changes in the composition of family members (birth, death,    

     displacement/move).

(10) termination of employment (unemployment) or retirement who

       is the backbone of the family.

(11) severe illness or abnormality in a family member.

(12) possibility of moving to another place due to demands

       partner's work (needs adaptation again).

(13) lack of time to be together; everyone is busy.
(14) infidelity.
(15) the division of tasks among family members is not balance.
(16) naughty children and disturbing others.
(17) and others like that.

Some of the efforts to overcome them are:
(1) always trust (be kind) your spouse and family members
     before they are actually proven guilty.
(2) communicate regularly among family members.
(3) be aware that time can change each other's physical,
     mental, and thinking.
(4) all family members must try to do their best, and to be
     tolerant of each other's weaknesses.
(5) keep seeking knowledge, insight, and experience in order to
     live this life be kinder, tolerant, and flexible.
(6) make room for inconvenience or misfortune that occurs to
     family members.
(7) improve each other's behaviour.
(8) act decisively for things that area really necessary and have
     dangerous consequences; short term pain is better than long
     term suffering.

Some common challenges that couples face in long-term relationships are communication breakdowns, lack of intimacy, financial stress, and differing values. These challenges can be overcome by learning to communicate effectively, setting aside time for quality time together, having honest conversations about finances, and finding ways to compromise on values. Additionally, couples should work to prioritize their relationship, set healthy boundaries, and be willing to seek professional help if needed.

There is no relationship without any trial or test. But there are certain qualities that enable couples to overcome them and one of such is honesty and the determination to remain faithful to your partner.
