Marriage is a team effort. Both of us share that philosophy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
But the key to our marriage is the capacity to give each other a break. And to realize that it's not how our similarities work together; it's how our differences work together.
Marriage takes work - it doesn't just happen.
What I've learned about marriage: You need to have each other's back; you have to be a kind of team going through life.
Marriage is an attempt to solve problems together which you didn't even have when you were on your own.
Seriously - quite seriously - I firmly believe that marriage is to be enjoyed and shared.
Marriage is a mystery, and part of it is just being kind to each other, not being selfish.
It's so easy to grow apart; marriage takes work.
There's lots of problem solving in any marriage, but when you have this collective goal that is a human being, it's an inspiring rally point.
Marriage is like life - it is a field of battle, not a bed of roses.
It had not occurred to me that marriage requires the same effort as a career. And unlike a career, marriage requires a joint effort.
