Congratulations!!!!!

I've found that a good marriage is a lot of hard work... and worth every minute. Love, trust and respect each other always, and above all protect your union. Don't let your eyes wander, or invest in relationships that don't support your partner and/or your marriage. It seems that the odds are against us ring wearers these days. Society is more geared to tear down a marriage rather than build one up.

Again Congratulations and I wish the two of you all the best that a marriage can offer!

1) No Credit Cards!!! (maybe 1 as an emergency device)
2) Any purchases over "X" amount get discussed prior. ($50-$100)
3) Live within your financial means. (see a pattern here?)
4) Live in her shoes -- everything you say, act upon, etc... take pause to imagine how she will perceive it, it is impossible to take unkind words back.
5) She should be your best friend.
6) People are not truly "in love" when they get married...(usually) that comes later, gradually, as you walk through the fire, side by side.
7) Everyday is a fresh start, take advantage of it.
8) You be the one that "get's over it" quickly...
9) Make it a point to take on some of her interests, even if it hurts a little.

18th anniversary next weekend, both on our first, and last.

Yeah!
Never go into debt, it will ruin a marrige.
Never let one spouse pay the bills alone (mine ran-up 34,000 in debt and sorta forgot to mention it).
Trust but verify.
would I do it again? Sure but I'm a sucker!

VERY well put! We are coming up on 40. DO pay special attention to #4. Words will stick with her.

I would add:

- Never go to bed angry. It's hard to spoon with someone with whom you are angry, and it's important to spoon!
- When you ARE angry, say so. I'm angry because.... and the next word should NEVER be "you".

Advice for her:
- Buy aspirin. If you have "headaches", he'll find someone who doesn't.
- Make sure to let him know that he hangs the moon for you. Every day.
- When you ARE angry, say so. I'm angry because.... and the next word should NEVER be "you" (yes, this is for both of you!).
- Saying, "Nothing" when he asks you what's wrong solves, well, nothing.

IF you are best friends, IF you trust each other, it's okay to say, "That made me feel like crap!" because you won't use it against each other!

Hugs, and I wish you both much success :).

That's my girl. :D Met her in Nov 1967 at a high school function. Married her two years later. It has been a wonderful ride. Now if we can just survive Obama...:(

Congratulations to the two of you. May you have much success.
