When you marry someone, you are really marrying three people - the person you think your partner is, the person your parnter really is, and the person your partner is going to become.
Competition in a marriage is like a cancer. If it is left untreated, it can kill the marriage.
In most cases, the one who's being nagged is being irresponsible in some way.
Most conflicts in a marriage can be traced to unmet emotional needs.
The couple that laughs and plays together has a much better chance of starying together.
You cannot NOT communicate. Ask yourself what you are communicating to your partner on a regular basis.
It's easy to begin taking each other for granted. Note that saying "excuse me" is a whole lot better than saying "move".
Couples are either growing closer or they are growing apart. You need to know two things: 1)What does it take to continue feeling connected to my partner? and 2) What does it take for my partner to continue feeling connected to me?
It's not always necessary to agree with your partner, or to see things in the same way. We do need to be able to see things through the other's eyes; however, ask yourself, "How will my partner be affected by what I am thinking, saying, and/or doing?"
