Before you got married what advice did you receive from loved ones or older married couples?

None. I was too young and stupid to ask for advice.





Fortunately, it's worked out, though. My wife and I are happily married and we'll be celebrating our 23rd anniversary on Sunday.Before you got married what advice did you receive from loved ones or older married couples?
I have been married twice. This second one seems to be working out - 8 years so far!!! Nobody ever gave me advice before either marriage, but what I will tell you is what not to listen to - don't believe them when they say ';don't go to bed mad';! Hell yeah, go to bed mad if that's what you need to do. But make sure you say ';I love you'; before you go to sleep because you never know what God's plans are for each other in the night. And when you wake up the next morning, forget what you were mad about the night before because it's a new day and a chance to make better decisions than you did the day/night before!Before you got married what advice did you receive from loved ones or older married couples?
Well those who actually offered their advice all said that they wished us all the happiness in the world. No one was against us getting married, except his ex LMAO.





Besides, when you get married, you are getting married for you and the person you are with, not for anyone else or to please anyone else. If you love that person and are good together, then go for it.
Well some of them protested it, saying she was older and from a different country. And i told them that's why i joined the military, to have a different life. My wife is from China, and i wouldn't ever find a woman like her here in the states. The advice they gave me was, to follow the heart, only you know what you want nobody else, so dont listen to anybody else
Learn to compromise; when you disagree, disagree with love and respect for the other person; respect each other; be prepared to work hard, marriage is not easy and takes effort. Good advice that took us awhile to understand and really be able to use. They were correct though.
every single person except my dad told me not to get married.





most of em were whinin about us bein too young (we were 19yo).





now they all say what a nice couple we are (we will be 21yo in a few months).





i guess what i'm sayin is that u need to rely on your own feelings and not the advice of other people.
Don't go to sleep angry at eachother. Stay up to work it out. It just turns into repressed regret otherwise.





Marriage isn't 50-50. It's 100-100, because it takes work and everything you have. Your little habits will drive eachother nuts. Get used to it.
why marry him? he is not a professional...i said, love doesn't ask if you are a professional or not...
None; I was also too stupid to ask.
Don't do it!
don't do it
They told me to not marry this man....I didn't listen and they ended up being right.
you gotta try it and see if you like it....and so I did.
