Marriage symbolizes what’s sacred, cherished and everlasting. Marriage is supposed to depict long jeopardy and consist of partnership. Marriage requires effective communication, togetherness, compromise and sacrifice. Marriage is about teamwork and unity. Marriage exhibits true love and a strong bond. Marriage displays forgiveness and apology.

There’s no partiality in marriage. It’s not about having egos, self-interest or gain. Marriage doesn’t display arrogance, superiority or disrespect. If a spouse is wrong in a conflict or misunderstanding, a spouse should be apologetic and be quick to make amends. A spouse should desire to work things out in issues or matters with listening ears. Both spouses must respect each other. It is reciprocal, therefore it must be reciprocated. If only one person gives it, it won’t work. Both parties must do such, there are no exceptions.

A wife must submit to her husband. She must succumb or yield to her husband and what he deems important or necessary. A husband must cherish the submission that his wife exhibits, and acknowledge the good that his wife is doing for him or to him. A wife should never stoop low during an argument, issue, misunderstanding or conflict and say things that will hurt her husband.

Utterances under no circumstances should be uttered just to win an argument or get your point across. This is dangerous, even deadly because it can easily be reciprocated. There’s no turning back once you have said what has crossed the line. It’s a point of no return, and you must think before you speak. Be careful, this is uncharted territory. Caution!

Marriage when it comes to exchange of words during verbal fights, arguments, issues, conflicts can be very sensitive. You must filter what you say when you’re upset because you can say something that you can regret, due to the heat of the moment. You can’t take back what comes out of your mouth. You must know when to exercise restraint. You must know that due to the fact that you’re mad, upset, that you have caught feelings, that you are hurt and will want to let anything and everything come out of your mouth just to get back at your spouse.

Don’t insult your spouse by undermining them, belittling them, uttering personal matters that you know will be a low blow. Things you know you wouldn’t say on a regular basis under normal circumstances. Words can hurt and the damage inflicted can be beyond repair in marriage. One may be able to forgive, but not forget and that’s a fact. Marriage must exhibit great restraint, patience and tolerance, even during the most difficult, crucial and trying times. Best believe, it is inevitable. You will be tried. There’s no escape from it as long as you’re married.

If you’re not ready for marriage, don’t venture. If you’re not ready for commitment and dedication, don’t mess with it. If you’re not ready for sacrifice and compromise, don’t get involved. Marriage takes effort, hard work, devotion, patience, tolerance, attentiveness, submission, care, sensitivity, understanding and compassion. You can never have a successful marriage without these elements. It’s like doing without missing pieces to a puzzle.

Love conquers all, it may be true. But love along isn’t enough. Love without understanding can’t last. Love without communication can’t last. Marriage can’t last without money. Money is also needed and is a key element in marriage. This is a very vital thing in marriage. Marriage needs all aspects to be able to stand the test of time. Never forget that. This is a very valuable piece of information. Don’t overlook these things. Keep them in mind and put them into practice.
