Replies to '01/03 Love Resolutions'

I live with my ex-husband (after 3 years of divorce).  We have not yet remarried (not sure if we will), but I, too, am afraid of making the same mistakes.  I try real hard to think about what happened the last time (breakdown in communication, not spending time together, etc), and I try to NOT let those things happen again.  However, it is really hard when I'm the only one that sees some of those things.  You  know men don't really look at things the way we do.  So, my advice, as long as you can acknowledge what did happen the last time, you will know what to do (or not to do) this time.  I think it is real important to get him involved as well (good luck on that note!!) 

Love and marriage takes committment and work, tell each other every day that you love each other and give compliments and always keep communication lines open. Be there for one another and respect and honor one another. regular date nights are good and every once in a while do something nice for one another.............................I have ben married for almost 13 years and my hubby is still the love of my life. We have had our differences but to even think about being apart from my hubby makes me ill to my stomach. I plan the date nights and I love doing little things for my hubby, cooking his fav mean once in a while and eating with him when the kids are in bed, I love cuddling up next to him and I love writting him love letters. I think sometimes life gets too hectic and we are just too busy to tell our spouses that we love them or what ever and I know for me, it is my desire to keep the fire buring in my marriage and though it takes two to make a marriage happy and successful, sometimes it may take one to get that all started and continuing and for my marriage, this is my goal, to help keep the fire burning........................................ And remember, every one makes mistakes and when things happen, be open, honest and true to one another, forgive and at the same time work to make things better. I believe marruage is a wonderful gift and blessing but unfortuantely there are people who don't look at it like this so therefore they fail.......Kudos to you and your husband for getting back togetehr. I have a friend who got back with her husband and her situation was really bad, he ended up spending some time in prison and before that, didn't have much of anything to do with the kids and was always out doing his own thing, well, long story short, he became a Christian while in prison and he definetly had a changed life, he eventually got out, started coming to church and ivolved in so many good things, including his family and he and his ex got remarried and lived happily for several years before he unexpectedly died. He was definetly a changed man and his life proved that. I believe any marriage can be happy and fullfilling but it takes work and committment, stay i tunes with your self and your husband and I believe you will make it.....................

Well, the only thing I can say is: communicate! If you don't talk to each other enough, things might get difficult sometimes
