A touching love story spanning 53 years was featured on the show “Mesimeri Kai Kati”. Andreas and Elli Cleovoulou shared their experience, demonstrating that love is a daily choice and not just a feeling. They described their first moments, the difficulties they faced, such as the period of the Turkish invasion, and how they managed to keep their relationship stable over time. Andreas emphasized that their relationship was based on a conscious choice, while Elli mentioned the anxiety she felt during the invasion when she had no news from her husband for days. Despite the difficulties, there was never any thought of separation. The couple believes that love does not need occasions, such as Valentine's Day, but is expressed daily. Their advice to young people is communication and understanding. They also state that technology is not necessary to be close, as the essence lies in daily contact. The couple has also kept their car from the time of their marriage, which they consider part of their shared history. The story of Andreas and Elli is a shining example of devotion and love that endures over time, proving that love is an act of commitment and not just a feeling.
