10 Marriage Tips (Whether newlyweds or old timers)



1) Love the whole package – your wife may have an annoying laugh, or your husband may drag his feet

2) Nagging only makes both of you more annoyed than to begin with. THE END.


3) No secrets – even tiny secrets (with exceptions of Christmas, birthday presents, etc..) If you are hiding something from your spouse than maybe you need to rethink what you are doing…

4) Build up your spouse with praise.

5) Love yourself – It is hard to love someone who doesn’t love themselves. Don’t fret over your imperfections. Your spouse chose you and loves you for who you are and being self-confident is a very attractive quality to have.

6) Go out on a date weekly.

7) Pray together – Sometimes you don’t realize what your spouse is worried about until it comes out in prayer. God is a partner in this marriage and it’s important to keep him close.

8) Communication is key – talk AND listen.

9) Do not gossip- Complaining about your husband to others is inconsiderate and a violation of trust.

10) Love through action – Do the dishes, wash the car, hang up a wet towel off the floor, fill up the car with gas… Do these things because you love your spouse, not because you feel obligated too.
