Marrriage is no different than any other relationship you will have throughout your life - as long as it remains mutually beneficial - you adjust and make
It work.

LMAO did you say that out loud?

@canuckg please at least do your wife right by first acknowledging that your marriage is very different than ALL other relationships you will have.

Unreal some of the stuff I read at BMR.

Also keep things within the home. Not everyone needs to know when you're fighting, what it's about etc.... oftentimes it's something small and you will make up afterwards and forget all about it
This is good advice Bobby well done to offer this suggestion.

If you blab to others about your wife's supposed weaknesses, she'll clam up and won't trust anything to you in fear that you might tell everyone about it. Some things are best kept within the home for this reason.

Any wise wisdom to share? How do you keep your marriage going?

Always communicate, even in the worst of times.

Never forget you are in it together. Don't make the relationship transactional because you need it to be mutually beneficial. That kind of thinking is ridiculous.

You probably don't have time, but the person marrying you should have required you to go through marraige counseling first, to prove you guys are in the right head space.

Far too many marraiges end in divorce because two people never should have married to begin with. A few sessions, self reflection, goal setting, etc will help weed those out beforehand and really put youselves under the light in an honest way.

If the person marrying you is a man of God, then it's almost his duty to counsel you.

You guys will forever be a team, never forget that. Lift each other up always and express your gratitude.

Have a great time canuck, congratulations.

Will you be putting God at the center of your relationship or is this stricktly a courthouse paperwork deal?

In today’s day and age it’s very difficult to stay married

Better to be counseled leading up to marriage, so that everyone is on the same page and understands what the future may bring, than to be trying to be counseled in marriage that is windind down.

Good advice, especially communication and not assuming certain decisions can be made alone and are not important enough to be made together. Your partner will not feel the same and some things are considered more important to them than they ate to yourself.


One thing i would add that’s crucial and probably a sensitive subject, is to be sure both have sown their wild oats

Hey @canuckg if you paid for the entire wedding by yourself, you already did yourself a disservice. Hopefully you didn’t do that because we all know you could afford it with just your casino winnings alone this year.
