Seriously man, me and my girl we fight a lot. Our first year was chaos, the only bright light we can look to is that we have seen the worst of eachother in our oppinion but still pull through holding hands together.

There are days I can't stand her but yet i know shes the best thing that has happen to me.

So whats your secret TM, how have you made your marriage last 11 years and still going strong? Please share to a younger saddobrotha ....







....in very vivid details
Bra,theres a bunch of little things,but they add up

Learn to cook,even if you arent doing all the cooking(I do,but Im a food snob,and a pretty good cook) she'll appreciate your effort,and your making her life a little easier

Learn that you no longer have "Your finances",you have our finances

Goof off with her,when she's puttering around the garden,hang out and talk to her while she's doing it

NEVER go to sleep po'ed,talk it out before you go to bed,its a cliche,but sometimes cliche's exist for a reason

Pets are actually a good stress release,screwing around with my Pit Bull can mellow me out,though I will say,I should have a sign over my gym saying,"Do not put on your boxing shoes until dog has had chance to say hi!,because dog may piddle"

Movies,sometimes after tucking the boy in,just snuggling up on the couch to watch a movie is good bonding

I hate this last one,because it sounds sexist as hell,but it is true,know when her privates are temporarily closed for repairs,when this happens they have five tons of hormones being dumped in to their system. You wouldnt be your most reasonable around then. So make allowances for it

Its a bunch of little things,but they add up
