In their book, "How to Build a Lasting Marriage", Elmer and Ruth Towns offer some characteristics of a long marriage (page 188):
Companionship: they prefer one another to all others
Calmness: they don't lose control of their emotions
Contentment: they accept and trust God's will
Commitment: their hearts are united, even when their minds aren't
And some ways to develop companionship (page 196):
By learning to be comfortable in an uncomfortable world
By accepting the unexpected as a call to faith
By embracing the future
By letting your children stand on your shoulders to reach higher
