Marriages are made in heaven. But, again, so are thunder, lightning, tornados and hail.

I have no way of knowing whether or not you married the wrong
person, but I do know that many people have a lot of wrong ideas
about marriage and what it takes to make that marriage happy and
successful. I'll be the first to admit that it's possible that
you did marry the wrong person. However, if you treat the wrong
person like the right person, you could well end up having
married the right person after all.
On the other hand, if you marry the right person, and treat that
person wrong, you certainly will have ended up marrying the
wrong person.
I also know that it is far more important to be the right kind of
person than it is to marry the right person. In short, whether
you married the right or wrong person is primarily up to you.

Getting married for sex is like buying a 747 for the free peanuts.
~Jeff Foxworthy~
Marriage isn't supposed to make you happy - and satisfied.
It's your job to make your marriage happy - and satisfying.
Same goes for sex. It isn't supposed to make you passionate and
"hot". It's up to you to make it passionate and "hot" and
intimate.

The challenge is to help couples turn "I Do" into "We Can."
~Scott Stanley~
All those "and they lived happily ever after" fairy tale endings
need to be changed to 'and they began the very hard work of
making their marriages happy.

The question is asked,
"Is there anything more beautiful in life than a young couple
clasping hands and pure hearts in the path of marriage?
Can there be anything more beautiful than young love?"
And the answer is given.
"Yes, there is a more beautiful thing. It is the spectacle of
an old man and an old woman finishing their journey together on
that path. Their hands are gnarled(粗糙的), but still clasped; their
faces are seamed(有皱纹的), but still radiant; their hearts are physically
bowed and tired, but still strong with love and devotion for one
another. Yes, there is a more beautiful thing than young love.
Old love."

My husband and I have been married for 27 years and we have never
had an argument.
That doesn't mean that we don't disagree but we live by this:
"If it's not a matter of life and death,
it's not worth arguing about."
Learn to discuss, not argue.
