When you have a disagreement, never attack the other person with "You always..." etc. Argue from the angle that "I'm upset because..." so that your spouse doesn't feel like he or she isn't being understood. Communication is the vitally important thing. Talk things out as calmly as you can.
Stay away from game-playing. It's an easy habit to slip into and it's so harmful to your marriage. Always try to be frank and straightforward in expressing how you feel about something. Ask your spouse to be as honest. If you don't feel like compromising over an issue, say so.....and make a deal with him that if you can be selfish sometimes, he can be too. You just have to keep it balanced.
And if he does something to piss you off, try to think about his good points and the times when he's been supportive and loving (not easy, but possible!).
Just keep in mind that you're each other's comfort and oasis from the hard cold world. Be kind and thoughtful toward each other and that will go along way to deepening your bond over the years to come.

How can I give advice when you make such a general statement? I could go on for days and days. It would never end. You would get tired of me rambling on and on about silly crap!
Listen-the only thing that's important is that the both of you are happy. Try never to go to bed angry at each other, wake up in the morning and say I love you, give him a kiss on his way to work, flirt with him, he like's it, tell him that he's the best thing since slice bread, do something crazy for him in bed, something he'll always take with him on those long trips away from home. And most of all, you're in love, try and keep these first happy moments with you you entire life.

Respect each other and agree to disagree on some things. Just because you are a couple it does not mean that you have to think the same way. Laugh as much as possible and yes, communication is very important, but think before you speak. Once it is out of your mouth, it is "out there" and like the saying goes, "It is not the words that people remember, it is the way you made them feel". Above all, remember, the more you give, the more you get, especially love.

Communication from personal experience. I lost the love of my life, my soul mate because we did not communicate very well with each other, but everything else was perfect! He past away 2 years after our divorce, and I never got to tell him anything I ever wanted to tell him, which is bad on my part because he left a letter for me. So please make sure you are both open with each other over everything no matter what. Just remember that everyone has problems and arguing is all part of a healthy relationship. Work together on things like a team and you will pull through anything. Congratulations on your marriage! I hope I was of help to you both.

Well, don't cuckold your husband. It's a very nasty thing to do. Be faithful to him. Sorry, but my own experience with the girl i have married has somewhat changed my view of married women, or women in general. Just be loyal to your husband, is all i can say. Never ever let any other guy impregnate you, ok?

Make the effort. It is your marriage and it does take work. Some of it will be easy and some of it will be tough.
Keep your sex life alive and kicking all the time.
Have fun dates.
Compliment each other and go out of your way to please each other and make each other happy.

Marrage is a partnership 50/50 give and take , accept each other for who you are and dont try to change the other person . always keep an open mind and listen to what your partner is trying to tell you .

RESPECT each other, THINK before you speak. KISS each other EVERY DAY, TRUST each other, BE KIND to one another-don't harbor any anger or resentment- TALK things out ALWAYS, and ENJOY each other. Take time out to just "talk" and be "friends!" CONGRATULATIONS on starting a NEW life TOGETHER! =)
