Re: Marriage Isn’t for Me
I read about this and it is kind of the way our marriage works. We are very aware of the happiness of the OTHER person, rather than our own, and when you make it your goal to make your mate happy, they make you happy in return. It has worked for 23 years so far!
I was disappointed at some people's reactions that "marriage isn't always about the other person, you have to be happy yourself..." etc. Well, it is a two way street, and is a partnership, and if BOTH of you consider marriage about the OTHER one, then it works out great. If only one of you has this philosophy then it might not work so well.
When I first read the title of the post, however, I thought he was writing about something completely different, lol!
