Most people really aren't that good at maintaining relationships and even worse at giving advice about them. My advice to you is take any advice you are given and consider the source. A smart man learns from his mistakes but a wise man learns from the mistakes of others.

1. Never both be angry at the same time.
2. Never yell at each other unless the house is on fire.
3. If one of you has to win an argument, let it be your mate.
4. If you must criticize, do it lovingly.
5. Never bring up mistakes of the past.
6. Neglect the whole world rather than each other.
7. Never go to sleep with an argument unsettled.
8. At least once every day say a kind or complimentary word to your life partner.
9. When you have done something wrong, admit it and ask for forgiveness.
10. Remember it takes two to make a quarrel.

honesty, mutual respect, forgiveness, faithfulness,loyal, lots of patience, be a good listener and if something is important to your spouse/partner then it should be important to you. also know that a marriage is much like a roller coaster sometimes everything is up and sometimes down but one thing for sure its worth the ride.
(i've been happily married 23 years and it has only gotten better as the years pass)

Communication is a very important factor. Make an effort every day to say I Love You without words. Actions will take you everywhere....
Remind yourself often of the qualities you value in your partner. After all it's why you fell in love in the first place...
And HONESTY HONESTY HONESTY!

I say tolerance and patience. Realize you are on different paths, but that in the end you are a couple. Things will run smoothly the second time, or at least I hope it does.

Seek Jesus, Pray together, (a couple that prays stays). Never forget where you two came from, keep open lines of communication. Never make money a Issue of happiness.

Just remember,why you fell in love with each other!
Remember your very first kiss!
Remember the first time, both of you actually made love!
But first and foremost, please think about what drove you too each other!
As a happily married woman, to a man at least 15 years older than I! I Thank Jesus every day for bringing this wonderful man into my life!!!!!!!!
