Dear Tess,
I’m not yet married, but I’ve been with my wonderful girlfriend, Teresa, for the past seven years. We started ‘dating’ in the seventh grade and have built a strong relationship and we have now been living together in Chicago for over a year, but college life is difficult. We’re both very stressed from school and work, and the only activities we really do together are eat, sleep and study (we attend different universities). She has a much more challenging academic path then myself so I put fourth a lot of effort as far as cleaning, keeping up with the little things, ect, but I feel like she’s forgotten about these types of things. I’ve had to bring these issues up in the past and it’s hurtful to feel the need to reiterate myself. How do you think I should handle this?

My hubby and I have faced many challenges since the early start of our relationship and are continually looking for ways to grow as a couple while celebrating our individuality. We have been together for 6 years now!

Being understanding in a relationship is mandatory. I believe communicating is very important thing which can save a relationship. Sorry for being biased at the time but it is true that men try to suppress the voice of their mates.
Let them speak after all being heard is all your mates want.

Great information. It’s often said that you get out of marriage what you put into it. While I agree with that statement we must also add that “You get what you expect”. If we expect nothing out of marriage, then we will receive nothing. Start seeing your spouse as all God wanted you to have (not their short comings. We all have those). Expect the best out of them. Expect the best for them. Speak well of your marriage.

Fantastic post and I love all the tips. I am glad that you included the power of prayer and gratitude. Those are two key components in any marriage. I find that if I spend just a few minutes at the beginning of my day thinking of all the things I am grateful for in my family life, the day flows so much smoother. Great post and thanks again!
