after being together for so many years we tend to get too comfortable with one another, we forget to do all the nice things we did in the beginning thinking that now we are together after all this time so it's OK to stop all the sweet talk, flowers and so on. but now more then ever you need to keep the good things that made each other happy before or someone will think that its not as good and loving as it used to be. Remember to bring flowers on Friday's. sweet words and hugs.....thats what keeps it alive........

Marriage changes after the ceremony. Reality sets in. The fantasy may take a while to go away but it will. Marriage is something that has to be worked at every day. Both parties have to grow into marriage and communicate better and more meaningful each day. If the work isn't done, we take ourselves and other for granted. Gradually we grow apart and around six years is the danger period. You both have to renew your original ambitions and plans. By now you know everything about one another and some of the truths are not necessarily pretty. If there are children, you must have a serious talk about the next five years. Remember, nothing outside the marriage is worth a thing because there is no commitment there. The changes have not taken place but your view of the reality has. Perhaps you have let the first five years just float on auto pilot and now you must renew the lease. The next six years are suppose to be the years you consolidate all the plans and either revise or extend them. This is an exciting time but only if you recognize it as such. Now go to work.

Why did you pick six years? Of course it changes. For some old reason anniversaries make people Think things must change. Think about it. Why must things change every 5 yrs.? Why not the 4th, 8th and 12th yr. of you marriage? Get it ? Of course, if your 6 it will change in about 6 yrs. because of puberty. Every year you're married life changes. The world changes every day. When you're married you have a partner to help you through the changes.

You'd be suprised at what will change even after ONE year. You'll get more comfortable with each other, and certain mannerisms will fly right out the window. Finances can change, job statuses, deaths of relatives can even change how a marriage is structured, as well as the area you live in and the "culture". Example: A farmer and a wife will no doubtedly spend the rest of their lives together out in the boonies of Missouri as opposed to a celebrity hollywood couple who's lives are exposed for everyone to scrutinize and stigmatize. A newlywed couple living the high life in New York could possibly make it further than a struggling newlywed Detroit couple living in the projects. I guess it all depends on the individual couples, how prone they are to change, how the area they're living in affects them, how well they deal with certain situations, and how well the other part of the couple takes the change.

Life changes after the HONEYMOON sweetie...and it continues to change and change and change...why do twits like Pamela Anderson say they are "so in love" one month and 4 months later are filing for "irreconcilable differences?" Think that silicone leaked into her brain...but the point is yes...it changes MOSTLY when you have kids...so enjoy your twosome experience while it lasts, after kids you are a family and you must fight for the romance to survive, and after about 20 years or 30 or 40 these days...you're kids just might finally move out and you can enjoy your "golden years" and come to understand why youth really is wasted on the young unfortunately.

Yes, and it keeps changing. If you work together it can change for the better. Ive been married 21 years and have gone through many changes and challenges. It is not the same as when we first married but it is still good, even better.

Things always change but that doesn't mean they have to change for the worst. Like some have said, for them it just keeps getting better. Hopefully it will for you, too.
