Top Highlights
“The truth is that not everything gets better. Many things improve in relationships, but some things become more difficult. Every successful marriage requires necessary losses, and in choosing to marry, you inevitably go through a mourning process.” (source)
“Marriage means giving up a carefree lifestyle and coming to terms with new limits. It means unexpected inconveniences.” (source)
“Commitment says, ‘I love you because you are you, not because of what you do or how I feel.’” (source)
“Don’t believe the myth that you and your partner automatically come with the same expectations for marriage. Instead, remember that the more openly you discuss your differing expectations, the more likely you are to create a vision of marriage that you agree on — one that is unique to the two of you.” (source)
“Given a problem, blamers feel the best defense is a good offense, because they are incapable of dealing with or expressing pain or fear. Blamers need to learn to speak on their own behalf without indicting others in the process.” (source)
