If the marriage needs help, the answer almost always is have more fun. Drop your list of grievances and go ride a roller coaster.
My husband has said even he doesn't know my politics. In the nonromantic-compliment category, that's a good one.
My wife is a real camper; it's a nice way to bond.
The best thing to ever happen to marriage is the pause-live-TV button.
My wife loves 'Scandal,' and I'm hooked on 'Homeland.' Sometimes I ask news makers, off the record, what rings true about those shows and what's ridiculous.
When I moved out of London 13 years ago, I found a whole other reason not to drive. This was because my new husband Dan, unlike my dad, did drive, and this became a great source of fun and adventure.
Road cycling, especially up mountains. It's the heady mixture of endorphins and aesthetics that I love. My wife does it too, and being with her in extreme but beautiful conditions adds to the experience and our relationship.
It was time for me to spend more time with my wife. I'm not saying I do spend more time with my wife, because she would throw me out of the house, but we have breakfast together. I never did.
A simple enough pleasure, surely, to have breakfast alone with one's husband, but how seldom married people in the midst of life achieve it.
In order to keep your husband, you have to make time for him. Rather than going out to dinner, I like to spend time for just the two of us.
I'm at work by 8 or 8:30, and when I get home every night, my wife and I walk around the lawn. We have dinner together, and then we spend most of our evenings alone.
