I would love to know all of the advice that you all have! Just like your one best piece of advice for a young couple. Especially in the communication department. Especially when bringing up touchy subjects that HAVE to be addressed!

I am 25 years old. My husband and I have been together for over 8 years and have been married for over 5. Yes we were married young :) We both still love each other very much and NO we are not having problems or contemplating divorce :P Just looking for advice to keep our marriage strong and healthy!

My hubby and I are going on 20 years of marriage and here is
Some of the best advice that I was given were

1. Marriage is not 50/50 its 90/10..each spouse should give 90 and take 10
2. if something about your spouse bothers you just say " I knew he/she was like this before we got married" even if you didn't know..
and number 3 which to me is the most important..HUMOR!! Nothing gets a person out of a bad or sad mood than humor :lol:
