September 07, 2020 - 14:57 BST Sharnaz Shahid Former First Lady Obama Michelle Obama has opened up about married life whilst offering her listeners some advice on relationships.Speaking in a recent episode of The Michelle Obama Podcast, the wife of former US President Barack Obama explained:"You can't Tinder your way into a long-term relationship.
"I say that because it's like, you've got to know the feelings will be intense. But that doesn't mean you quit and these periods can last a long time - they can last years," the 56-year-old explained. However, the couple are happily married and parents to their two daughters Malia Ann, 22, and Sasha, 19."Young couples, they face these challenges and they're ready to give up because they think they're broken," she added."And I just want to say, look, if that breaks a marriage, then Barack and I have been broken off and on, throughout our marriage, but we have a very strong marriage.
Michelle also confessed that romance needs to happen"organically," explaining that,"there's no magic way to make [marriage] happen except getting the basics of finding somebody, being honest about wanting to be with them, to date them seriously, to plan on making a commitment, to date them, seeing where it goes, and then making it happen."
