LOVE & MARRIAGE

in #relationships7 years ago (edited)

Best marriage advice I got. Never go to sleep mad at each other. Let it go. You can get back to whatever the issue is tomorrow, but few arguments are ever more important than each other. Say i love you, hold each other. No one knows what tomorrow may bring nor take away. Going to bed mad, that stupid age-old regret-filled act of "silent treatment" has left many broken and bewildered and regretful hearts in its wake. It's selfish and childish and will bite you back when you least expect it. Grief is so much harder than forgiveness. Be good to yourselves. Peace.

Please explain how that cut-off switch is possible Bc i have heard it before. It would take two very cool people that probably wouldn't argue much to begin with.

An agreement and promise we made to each other before we got married. It's not a magic spell. Wasn't always the easiest thing to do but it was near impossible to not remember. The memory hitting one or both of us at bedtime and with it a softer more reflective heart.
The process of trying to stop arguing before bed, of trying to keep the promise almost always caused giggles and fits of laughter trying to keep strait faces when thoughts of promises made years b4 when we were wild and free and not parents of five. It helped tremendously for the entire 16 years of our marriage. We went separate ways over 20 years ago now yet have remained friends since. Probably helps there too.
My current spouse and i will celebrate our 14th anniversary this August. We have not gone to bed mad at each other either. Yet. :D

Well, at least one thing is for sure. It's a reflection of your spirit and character. good one sprerku. thanks.
I'll try that out in the beginning next time.

Thanks, that's kind of you to say.
I hope life and love work out well for you and your heart whether you go to bed mad at the #&%! or not.
