Never go to bed mad.

never go to bed mad if you have to stay up all night it is worth it. talk it out. be honest with each other and be true to each other.
From a couple that has been married 64 years this past April. Chet and Pauline Dinger of Oskaloosa, KS. (He's 86 and She's 85)





When asked, she replied ';Be your partners best friend and listen and respect eachother. But most of all, you have to have a sense of humor.';





When he was asked, he said ';What'd she say?';
Start saving for the divorce early.
Always remember what made you fall in love in the first place, communication is the key to solving everything, agree to disagree, compromise, remember you married each other not the in-laws, never go to bed mad, sex solves nothing only distracts you from the real issue, make time for you as well as time for each other, and last always respect the others wishes and dreams and encourage them to achieve them.
Always put God first and don't go to bed angry!
try to marry you best friend and don't let the little things get to you and when they do speak up
one of my single bridesmaids told me ';whenever he gets on your last nerve, remember how lucky you are that you have someone there to get on your last nerve.'; and i was told several times to think back to what i loved about him on our wedding day on those days when the wedding is a distant memory and life is crashing in all around.
Never cut what can be untied.








Meaning, talk and work it out instead of giving up
Communication lines should always be open.
Never take each other for granted and always try to listen to each other's opinion and along with love you must respect one another.
Keep the lines of communication open





Speak up about little things before they become big problems.





Say ';I love you'; often.





Don't stay mad - Don't ever go to bed angry





Don't use sex to gloss over problems - Make up sex is a big mistake ...





Don't forget that you had separate lives before you met... Keep in touch with old friends, don't let being married take you away from the rest of the world. Keep your separate friends and separate interests.





Agree on how to budget money. If there is a difference on how the two of you approach spending sit down together and draw up a household budget and practice it.
Be polite and nice to each other as much as possible......and don't sweat the small stuff.
I agree with Sara_B... Be kind to each other. After that everything falls into place.
just shack up for a few years and save the cost of divorce.......or......talk about each others dreams ambitions, goals, plans for children, future, religion BEFORE you make the leap....could save alot of grief in the future p.s. always be honest to and respectful of your spuose and on the off days be sure to remind yourself why you fell in love in the first place.....good luck
LOVE AND AFFECTION,


UNDERSTANDABILITY TO EACH OTHER


REALISTIC


KINDNESS
i just got married july 16th 2006.....a week or so ago.





from what i have learned.





be happy...everything will be ok. you are not in it alone you have your partner in crime. have fun!





just because you are married...doesnt mean you die....you can still have lots of fun! you just have someone else to have fun with :D
Kindness is the key to a happy marriage. You can communicate your way into a divorce, but if you both come from kindness, your lives together will be happy and long-lasting.





Love is a choice. Make that choice every day when you wake up.
One of the biggest things in love is that we have someone who makes us feel good about ourselves. Thus each partner should make sure they keep making the other person feel good about themself.


Also part of the dating process is seducing each other..never stop that.


And if there is some thing that you don't like about each other- it doesn't get better with marriage......in fact it gets worse. So, if there are things you don't like about your mate.make sure it is something that you can live with, because marriage is not the same as magic.





Agree to daily have a 10 second hug and at least a 5 second kiss a day.


Never degrade or blame each other.
love, patience, kindness, NEVER STOP BEING AFFECTIONATE!!!!!!
Love


Loyalty


Respect
