Marriage Advice

in Chit-Chat
I have an MFP friend, who we'll call Kort, that is getting married soon. Where we don't have a video camera to go around and ask everyone for unsolicited marriage advice, I've created this thread for her.

You're welcome, Kort.

    I'll start.

    Boys have wee wees and girls have hoohahs. I recommend getting a magazine that explains all this in better detail. :drinker:

    If your husband suggests having only one e-mail between the two of you, run far and fast.

    When you are wrong, admit it.

    When you are right, keep your pie hole shut.

    Make time for each other. No matter how long you're together, you still need each other.

    You can either be right all the time, or you can be married.

    My advice: Dont listen to a lot of people on MFP LOL We sometimes are a bunch of ... free spirits.


    If you love him and hes the one, marry him.

    Kids change EVERYTHING! Accept it.....

    Don't forget to catch up every once in a while. Sit down an have a meal together at least twice a week. You will be surprised on how fast life takes over.

    Be honest with each other about EVERYTHING (especially money matters). But even then the answer to "Do I look fat in these jeans" is always NO.

    A good wife is good at making their hubby feel like he's in charge even if he's really not. :laugh:

    Open, honest, rational communication about expectations, boundaries, etc from the very beginning (before marriage). Don't bury things, but don't explode about them either. You have to have open communication lines at all times.

    Have couple time that isn't at night. Like always catching up on TV on Saturday morning, or taking a walk in the mornings before your crazy days!
