WHAT’S THE BEST MARRIAGE ADVICE YOU EVER HEARD?

(April, 2017) Fark.com asked the question, “What’s the best marriage advice you’ve ever heard?” Some of the answers:
– Do the dishes.
– Have separate bathrooms.
– You can be right, or you can be happy. Pick one.
– It’s ok to go to bed angry. Sometimes you’re just tired.
– Have a snack. You’ll argue over the dumbest stuff when you’re both hungry.
– Pick your battles.
– The wedding is pointless, skip it. The marriage is all that matters.
– Don’t rush into it. It seems like a lot of young women don’t want a marriage; they just want a wedding.
– Say these three words every day. I. Was. Wrong.
– I don’t care how the towels are folded, but she has a preference. I just do it how she likes it because it takes the same amount of time anyway.
– Be sure to meet the mother. That’s exactly what she’s going to physically resemble in 15 years.
– Don’t.
* “Third time’s the charm”?
* The one about folding towels is nice, but what about how to load the dishwasher and which way the toilet roll should hang?
* The best advice I ever got was, “Just shut up and do as I say.” That advice came from my wife.
* Gee, it’s almost as if people weren’t actually built to spend extended periods of time with the same person.
* One thing I’d recommend is to get better at something every now and then. Just so there’s a veneer of progress.
* Listening is important but being able to pretend to listen is absolutely vital.
