I'm 15 years in marriage Today.
And here're 5 things I've learnt:

/1. When you marry 1 woman, expect to live with 3 women:

1. The woman you think she is
2. The woman she is
3. And the woman she's going to become as a result of being married to you

The third one is up to you

/2. Your woman does not really need you to do the "big" things to satisfy her. Seemingly "little things" like hugging her, kissing her on the forehead, telling her you love her, noticing her new hairstyle, sitting with her in the kitchen makes her feel so loved and valued.

/3. Don't "demand" respect from your woman. Respect her and her values first and let it show in your words and actions. What you continuously pour on her is what she'll eventually become to you. Be genuine but be visionary also. It'll help her to trust you more and follow you.

/4. The most "expensive" sex is "free" sex. Stop valuing a side chic because she costs you more money. That's called irrational behavioral tendency in marketing. What your woman gives you for free at home is the most expensive. So Invest in it. That's wisdom for long life.

/5. Build your relationships and family on a foundation of love and reverence for God. The prosperity and grace to sustain a happy marriage comes from Him. It's not by power or might.

/6. She can cheat on you and you will beat your chest to the heavens that she is faithful. Eighteen years after, when the seed of her infidelity is fully grown, is when you finally realize the child was not yours.

It's a woman thing. Especially a good woman who loves you. Those small things matter. When you note her new nail polish. When she gets ready for a usual day and you compliment her. When you compliment her cooking. In fact, complementing her on any and everything.

The best part? It doesn't cost you a dime.

7. No two marriages are the Same..

What has worked for others Will/Might not work for yours..

8. Avoid Comparisons.. Comparing sex organs of your spouse with that of an ex or body Shapes or Money Attitudes can trigger Problems. Avoid it.
