unbreakable bond

Tie that lasts

A relationship or connection so strong it cannot be severed or weakened.

The phrase appears most often in sentimental contexts—family ties, lifelong friendships, romantic devotion: The sisters shared an unbreakable bond.

It can also describe loyalty between comrades or the attachment between humans and pets.

The phrase tends toward cliché, often deployed in greeting cards and eulogies.
