John and Ann Betar know a thing or two about relationships — they've been married for 83 years.
When they met, Ann was still in high school. John was working selling produce and would often give her rides to school, the Washington Post reports. Despite Ann's father's misgivings about John, the two eloped when she was just 17.
Today, John is 104 years old and Anne is 100. After more than eight decades of marriage, Worldwide Marriage Encounter declared them the "longest married couple in America."
In honor of Valentine's Day, cleaning startup Handy asked Twitter users to tweet relationship questions for the couple the answer. Over 100 people chimed in with questions. Here are some of our favorite responses.
.@c9clubbb Ann: We hang onto one another! Just a few little hugs and we’re fine.

They also gave parenting advice. In addition to their own kids, the Betars have 14 grandchildren and 16 great-grandchildren.
Ann: NO! John had a grocery store and I had 5 kids to take care of where would you go? We amused ourselves with the kids and games.

And here's what the couple has to say to all you newlyweds out there.
.@CristinaPerach John: Let each other be, if it’s not drastic. We wish everyone a blissful life like ours. We're just lucky.
