Jackman says that you just need to find the right person with whom you can be yourself. When going on a date, people tend to put on the best version of themselves to impress a partner. And until they feel comfortable, they cannot truly be themselves.

In case of Deborra-Lee, Hugh had the feeling that they’re right together from day one. As he says:

I could just be myself. I am not saying we don't ever dress up or impress each other, but being comfortable is a key.

What is more, to keep relationship strong, the couple have a few agreements to follow. First, they never spend more than two weeks apart. Second, they don’t work at the same time if there’s no financial need in it. And finally, they like traveling and exploring world together.
