What are three things that you think every marriage should do before they get married to set themselves up for the most success possible?
I think the first one is you.
Have to have.
A group of people outside this marriage that you both are committed to helping carry the weight that you bring into the world. Really? What does that look like? That means there are seasons when my wife, I get home from being on the road, and she said, are you going to watch the fights this weekend with your. With your buddies? Because she knows I need to go sit with a group of guys and laugh and be goofy and tell jokes and eat nachos, even though I'm trying to, you know, take care of my nutrition. She also knows she can't carry all of my. Am I enough? And what about the bills and, hey, what about the kids and all of it? I've got to have a group of guys that I can lean on, and she's got to have a group of women that she goes and sits with on a regular basis, and they go do whatever it is they do.
