My wife and I have been married for over 5 years now, as of 2 days ago. Then again, we have missed most of our anny for the fact I was in the field or she was in another state due to having a kid. We where not together this year cause I am in a coupletly different country right now. We have bet the 85% and we still act like we are still the 19 year old dating couple when we 1st got together. Only difference is that I know more sign now and she has learned a lot abt patients that marrage, let alone what the army needs. We still have our problems and sometimes she swears that I am the one that is deaf, not her. Then again, we pick on each other from the time the sun comes up till the sun goes down. We have 2 beautiful kids, and thank god they got their looks from mama, together and we won't trade anything for the things we have.
My advise for a healthy marrage is as follows:
1. Listen to each other
2. Allow the other have personal time
3. Have fun together and work for the same goal
4. Try to understand the other's point of view
5. Remember that you have 1 kind of experence while the other half has something totally different from you.
6. Always enjoy each other and have fun with each other
7. Never get mad over the small stuff or the details
And my last rule that my wife don't like is this
Every single day, you have to embarress your better half atleast once a day and show your love infrount of everyone, not just behind the bedroom door.
