When a Man and Woman marry, they become ONE.
The trouble starts when they try to decide which one !


Try to have an evening once a week for just the two of you.
Defend it with your life.


Criticise less. Discover the power of praise.

Given your partner flowers when it's not their birthday
or your anniversary.

When you get home, try to speak to your partner before
doing anything else.


We sow the seeds of tragedy when we want our partner to
become someone they cannot be.

Successful marriage is more than finding the right person.
It is about being the right person.

Before starting an argument ask, "Is this worth fighting over ?"

It's important to make time for your children but it's even more vital
to make time for each other. They need you to keep your love alive.

Don't confuse your partner's need for space with rejection.

Forgiveness is hard. You don't realise what a good memory you've
got until you try with all your heart to forget something.
