<3~~Wednesday NQOTD~~<3

Morning Girls Todays Question is pretty general...
and i know most of us are all very newlywed but...

What makes your marriage work?

For me its alot of things, we know each other very well so we know when we need certain things..
DH knows when I need some extra affection...so he gives me some!
also the unconditional love we have for each other!
Another thing that makes it work so well is that we love alot of the same things!

I think alot of what makes our marriage works is we know when to leave each other alone. Alot of couples I know smother each other and we are just NOT that kind of couple...We talk maybe once or twice a day during the work day! And then when we get home, its our time....and we are together and its just us...we try to maintain that time.

ETA: We laugh alot and thats really what keeps us happy! Not taking ourselves too seriously!

With us it's a combination of communication, laughing a lot, doing things together as well as encouraging each other's hobbies/interests, always showing each other TONS of affection (not like crazy PDA - but the simple things like holding hands if we're out or just snuggling on the couch - always grabbing & hug & a kiss when we pass each other in the hall, and when it's just us - those slow deep kisses that make our feet tingle), also making ourselves always look the best for each other- dressing nicely when we go out or whenever.

I don't know how to weigh in on this. So far its been a cake walk. A few things that have gotten us to our wedding day... We always talk things out when we are upset. We never let things fester. We are honest and open.

Also we say I Love You every single night before we go to bed. We haven't gone to bed angry yet, at least as newlyweds, but we promised each other we would say it every single night for the rest of our lives no matter what is going on.

I love these questions!

I think for us, it's about being happy to just be near each other. We complement each others styles so much -- he's quiet but likes to try new things. I'm outgoing and love adventures.

We just fit together.

Even when we have disagreements, we love each other so much that we work it out. It seems like it's impossible to really 'hurt' each other, because no matter what we disagree about, we know it's not a person affront.

Hopefully I'll be able to feel the same way and think the same things 10, 20, and 50+ years from now.

For us it is that he is the balance to me and vice versa. I am outspoken and sometimes don't think clearly, where as he is calm and quite. He is exactly what I need to balance my personality.

Re: <3~~Wednesday NQOTD~~<3

The fact that we have a lot of patience for each other and talk about EVERYTHING I'd say are top on the list. And the fact that we are crazy in love and always put the other one first doesn't hurt either.
