"Never let the sun set on your anger."
"Listen much; speak seldom; work diligently and often."
"Learn to say, 'yes, dear' a LOT."
Take out the trash without being asked on the right day.

Understand that your spouse is a person with needs, wants and desires that probably differ from your own. Support your spouse (even if you think they're wrong) in public and discuss differences in private. Take every opportunity to say, "I love you"...and mean it. Finally, listen!

"Birds of a feather, flock together". Be sure you like his siblings, parents and his friends before you marry. Like it or not, these people are with you all your married life. Look at them and you see what he is made of.
