I honestly believe any relationship can make it if its worked on. You have to work daily on communication, trust, love, and all other issues. When you base a marriage on physical only, it will shatter. If it didn't start from the core, its not going to work. Its harder to build. I was married for 11 years for the wrong reason, and it failed, because I didn't work on it at the beginning... Marriage is not something you sign a paper for and then forget. I learned that the hard way.
