Congratulations to the two of you!
Never go to bed angry
Never give the silent treatment
Never withhold sex, you can have sex without talking
Always communicate about everything, take time to listen and be heard as well
Compromise on things which an agreement cannot be reached
Work out a budget that is agreeable and stick to it
Do not keep secrets that are harmful to your spouse
Speak about how the children are going to be raised, religion, education, and discipline before they come into the picture
Pick your battles wisely, some things are simply not worth arguing about. And simple stupid arguments can lead to a divorce.What is the best advice anyone has ever given you about marriage?
My grandmother told me:
Acknowledge that there will be things you can and can't do, will and won't do. And then accept that there will be things your partner can and can't do, will and won't do. And then love them anyway.
I didn't really get it at the time (I was only 21 and thought that love conquered all..) but now that I'm middle aged, it totally rings true. I believe the reason my marriage is so strong is because I've accepted this.
Remember that in the greater scheme of things, it doesn't matter who is right, and 99% of all arguments are over nonsense that really doesn't mean anything.
Rather than argue over something stupid, walk away. If it's truly important, you can talk about it later, but odds are you will both forget the whole thing.
And remember to be yourself and let your partner do the same. You can't depend on them for your happiness or you will surely be disappointed. Continue to be the individual you were before, and not just half of a couple.
im gettin married this weekend sat. may 30th. and the only thing i believe in for a good marriage is one where both husband and wife work together, they understand each others needs, they truely love each other and live life to the fullest and make thier marriage the greatest and last forever
The most accurate advice I've ever been given is that relationships take work. And they do. It's about communicating the problems, compromising to solve them, and actually carrying the plan of action out.
DON'T DO IT!
Seriously......COMMUNICATION, consideration, passion, compatibility, sense of humor, compassion, Respect, Affection, understanding, Love, and compromise.
The best advice I've ever been given was :
';No matter how angry you are, Remember how much you love him.';
I can not tell you how many times I have come back to that advice. ( And.. how many heart aches it has saved me.)
Good and equal communication, and try always to understand your partners feelings, and never take your partner for granted.
Watch the movie Fireproof...not very good acting but it is very moving and has very good advice.
To put God first in everything that you do. With His help, anyone can succeed at whatever they do. '; With God all things are possible. (Matthew 19:26)
Never go to bed angry.
Essentially resolve your problems and don't let them drag on.
Always trying to out serve one another.
The best advice I got was to not get married. I didn't listen.
