Wonderful advice for newlyweds?!?

If there are married couples willing to share...what advice should newlyweds know before getting married, and what should we expect after marriage? What can we do as a couple to make sure we continue to have a strong relationship in marriage?Wonderful advice for newlyweds?!?
1. Compromise. If one does and the other doesn't there will be problems eventually. If you are both willing to give a little your relationship will last.


2. Truth. No matter how embarrassing or hurtful, always tell the truth. There is more than one way to tell the truth. You can say it and be nice or be a crap head. Play nice.


3. Quality Time. Make time for each other to be alone. You need to be able to have this time to reconnect. Even if you have kids make one night a week to be ';couple time'; and drop the kids at the sitters.


4. Respect. Respect the other persons opinion. You do not have to agree, but you do have to acknowledge it and keep an open mind. Again, play nice.


5. Listen. No matter how trivial it might seem to you, listen to your spouse. To you, it could be that they are making a mountain out of a mole hill, but to hem it could seem very tragic and overwhelming. Be loving and supportive whenever humanly possible.


6. Apologize. Don't let your pride get in the way of your relationship. If you are wrong, and deep down you know it, make that extra effort to make it up to your spouse. Make up sex is always good! ; )





Good Luck!Wonderful advice for newlyweds?!?
I agree with the prior statements but add open communication. Keep the lines of communication open and free. You have to always be able to discuss anything with your spouse without fear.


Try your best to avoid arguments, if things get heated, step back and wait until you can discuss things calmly and lovingly.


My husband and I never discuss things around our children and we normally wait until we are turning in for the night.


Learn to yield to one another regardless of who is right. It's not about winning one to your side but about supporting one another to accomplish a common goal. A happy life-long marriage.
Have a date night set up from the beginning. Don't break date night. This gives you time together away from home to be yourselves.





Don't expect things to be like what you see on TV. Marriage is hard. It's a rollercoaster ride, but at the end you screamed, felt like your heart was gonna come out of your chest, thought you were gonna be sick, wanted to get off the ride. But once the ride was over all you could think was ';I WANNA DO THAT AGAIN!';
Talk about EVERYTHING before you get married. Right down to what household chores you feel go with which spouse, your religion, how important it is to you, how you want to raise your children, who will take care of them and who will work, things that you want them to learn, your families, pet peeves, habits, hobbies, long term goals, where you want to live, favorite foods, foods you hate, color schemes, decorating, what you think you would do in situations when things didn't go as planned (they rarely do) sex, sexual history, learning styles, jobs, anything else that I have forgotten, talk about it before you get married. You want to make sure that it is the right person before you commit to life with them. The right one makes time fly by, and the wrong one , well, will make you both miserable.
From what i know....................................鈥?FOR ME PERSONALLY








Marriage is not what its cracked up to be.. its not all wine and roses passionate bla bla bla... its real life... its all that at first but real life kicks in and thats kinda... a once in a while thing (which is fine, you just have to get use to it) Dating and marriage is totally different, also hard to accept.





Video games... if you like them please please oh holy god please dont play it for hours when you come home from work spend some damn time with your wife! lol





Don't rush into things..... save some of the good stuff for later.. but not too much later... just dont do everything in the first week. you have a lifetime together (hopefully)





Dont let your wife be lonely when your right next to her... its the worst most horrible feeling in the world... to be alone and lonely when the one you fell in love with is right there.. its the most homesick feeling but no way to fix it its a helpless feeling... love her... dont take her for granted.. dont stop snuggling up to her at night just because shes now in the same bed with you every night and shes got your ring on her finger.... just continue to love and cherish her.. and dont lose sight of each other
lol you should of thought about it...im 20 and never getting married screw that
