What words of advice would you pass along to someone about to get married?!


Question: 35 years of marriage have taught me that compromise and the ability to agree to disagree on some issue are critical.
I awake each Day and try to think of some way that I can make that day better for my wife.
We are very comfortable to-gether, share the same interests, and want to go to mostly the same places.
I go to her dog shows and she goes to my Hot Rod car shows.

Divorce is expensive. So if you aren't 100% sure about who you're about to marry, then don't do it.

(never been divorced, but I know a lot of people who have gone through it)

get a pre-nup

Communication is key.

Make sure you can agree 100% on how to deal with money and how to manage it and make a monthly budget and stick to it!

It's the #1 reason most people have difficulty in their marriages.

Make sure you're doing it for you not because you think it's what you should do. Don't settle because if you do you will never be happy.

Don't think you or your spouse will "change" after marriage.

What you see is what you are going to get...

RUN!!! I'm joking. He will change things after you are married. Mine was cool about thing before, then after he became more uptight. They say the first year or 2 are the hardest, I believe them. You have to figure each other out, pick your battles wisely & give in some. Good Luck

The way they are now is the way they will always be if not worse. You can't change them.

I hope they get lucky
are you getting married?

Lots. Good luck and congrats first of all. I recently read, and I cant remember what womens magazine it was, an article of ten things you need to know before getting married or ten things you wished you knew before getting married.. extremely acturate. Im sorry I cant remember where I read it. I think it was Glamour or Cosmo.

Sadi is sooo right.. communication is HUGE.. I have learned so much about my hubby still in the first year.. and I am still learning.

I would ask them to make sure they are compatible and willing to sacrifice for each other. What standards are they willing to live with. Are both partners willing to maintain employment in the event children come into the picture? What are the sexual expectations of each partner if they haven't been discussed yet? Is each partner able to accept the other's parents/relatives? Are both partners on the same page as far as finances are concerned? Are both partners willing to sacrifice and compromise as far as expenses are concerned in order to maintain solvency in the marraige?

Don't! It severely limits your playing field

Be honest and true to the vows you are about to take , always communicate with your spouse and don't let fights become any bigger than they should ,
