What is the most important advice you could give?

regarding how to maintain a good relationship/marriage?What is the most important advice you could give?
Love yourself for who you really are before you try to share yourself with someone else. You have to not only know yourself but love yourself as well before you can let someone else fully love you.





Realize that every relationship/marriage is different-don't compare yours to everyone elses'.





Don't go to bed mad.





Our house rule- no conversation before coffee!What is the most important advice you could give?
If you have a problem - and there are many problems that arise in a relationship/marriage, face it and try to resolve it. The fear of disagreements is the biggest burden for a relationship/marriage. For two people living together, coming from different backgrounds and espousing different lifestyles, arguments are a natural consequence. And resolving such argument, even when facing hostility, is the only way to a contented relationship. You do 'this' for me and I will do 'that' for you. A trade-off.





Check out my source and find a more detailed discussion on this subject in the book I recommend.
I did a lot of studying and learned as much as possible about it before I got involved in dating someone. I especially learned what I could about marriage before getting involved in one. I learned that without Jesus Christ my marriage is nothing. He is my number one priority. John 15:5 says, '; I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.'; I hope this helps you.
Open communication and being able to discuss anything under the sun together! Always have one another's back, and when you are down, be sure your partner tries to be up, and visa versa, expecially when you have kids around...they are little sponges and soak up 'how to be an adult' from watching your behavior! All behaviors! You never know when they are looking and listening, even though they 'seem to' be playing with toys in the corner, they get it thru the tones of voices!


There is so much, this box is just too little!


Let's have coffee and a chat! Best of luck, kiddo!

Be honest, and don't do anything that you wouldn't want to admit to your spouse. Communicate even if you don't want to talk about it. Forgive - never go to bed angry. Put the other first instead of always making sure you're getting your own needs met. There is no room for selfishness in a relationship!
Treat eachother with mutual respect and put eachother first, everything should be 50/50 (including housework lol),

Love the person from a point of understanding, being quiet so you can listen to them, forigveness and not being judgmental.
communicate about everything. there is no such thing as a little white lie cuz chances are ur gona have to lie again to cover up the first lie. be honest and open.
Make the other person your top priority. And observe them. If they don't value you, reassess your relationship.
Make sure this person is not only a lover, but also a friend.
Only marry someone you connect with:


Emotionally


Sexually


Intellectually





Also, always communicate and compromise...
