Your marriage is a partnership between two people who take on life together. If you set your foundation solid and right all else is just fuzz. Every once in a while sit her down and share with her what it means to you to share your life with her. Feel free to make shit up. Set a precedent, establish boundaries and responsibilities, do your share. After your love goggles come off and you are both living a routine - reminiscence of the good memories will keep the flame lit. My two cents. Edited April 11, 2016 by iboomboom Awards

"Yes dear, I understand/ you're right". It worked for a long time. The best you can do is say such things and take care of family first. My wife and I split up for completely different reasons. Not the normal rationale!
