Can't speak for those people but my guess is that they got married very young, they changed A LOT over the years and became different people during that time and turned into people they didn't like anymore, and rather than get divorced they just rode it out until dying. Maybe had affairs to help cope, I don't know.

For sure. When young people say “I wish I had a marriage like my grandparents because they lasted” like… no. They likely didn’t love each other. They lasted bc grandma couldn’t leave and their generation sees divorce much differently than we do.
