Traditional Indian couples stay married forever, relatively speaking. Separation happens, but divorce is rare.
Rural couples plod on. And it's not about conversation so much as doing things together. It is common to see the woman to walk a few steps behind her husband but that does not make her a stay at home housewife. In rural India, the woman often works shoulder to shoulder with her man on the farm.
These are photographs of elderly couples.
