I wish I had figured out sooner that MY LIFE is better when I let my wife do more or less what she wants to. She never asks to do anything outrageous and usually what she wants to do is a pretty good idea. In the early part of our marriage, I tried to control my wife much too much, like I had seen my Dad control my Mom. That didn't work with my wife, and she resented not being able to do what she wanted to, so we had a bunch of friction. Then I decided to try just agreeing to almost anything she suggested, and it works well for me. And her too.
When I got married, I made a bunch of really big promises. I took those promises seriously, and have tried my darndest to follow through with them. I have always been entirely true to my wife, and am quite sure she has been true to me. We both have worked hard to make a good life and to raise our 5 kids. They all are productive, college graduates that are doing fine, and a part of their success was from watching their parents get along well almost all the time.
We have always tried very hard to be nice to each other. We don't fight, just discuss things and usually come to an agreement, at least over things that affect both of us. I genuinely LIKE my wife, and thank God we found each other. I don't expect perfection, since I am far from perfect, but she is pretty darn good!
We will be together until one of us dies. And I hope that will be a very long time from now, since we have a really good life together.
Be nice and respectful, be true and loving, talk through problems that come up, and work hard are the best advice I can suggest. Hope this helps.
