5 Marriage Tips to Help You:
#1 Learn that you are both going to be wrong.
This is important. You both will be wrong at many points in the marriage. Just admit it, apologize and move on.
#2 Compromise on wants.
This is a top tip. Compromise is big and also hard to do. If it means making both parties happy or to help you not fight, please do it.
#3 Men please listen to your significant other!
No one likes to be ignored, made to feel that their feelings don’t mean anything, or to feel like you don’t care. Please just listen and take in what they are saying.
#4 Don’t tell them you hate them in a fight unless you truly mean it.
This is a powerful word that you should never say to someone you love and care about. Be mindful of using it.
#5 Date your spouse!
This is one that is lost once married and really it could solve problems before they start. Dating lets you be close to one another, take a break from life and relax.
