I've been married almost 30 years. My advice is to make sure he's your absolute best friend. Also keep a plaque or embroidered pillow in the bedroom that says "Always Kiss Me Goodnight" - it works and it's wonderful. Then, never forget to hug. This is exspecially fun when the kids are teenagers - it grosses them out! But hugging is one of the most important things (to me) in a marriage. And finally, some adivce that my dear mother gave me that saved my marriage through a particularily rough patch. She said, "sometimes you'll have days that are bad, sometimes even weeks or months. I remember a time when a whole entire year seemed to be too much, but.... the end is always better than the beginning". It got me to hang in there - we'd been married around 8 years and I truly thought we'd grown apart, but now after nearly 30 years, she was SO right. He's my very best friend and I love him to pieces!!! So always...hang in there....it's worth it. Good luck to you both!
