Then, she’s no longer the woman you married.

None of us should be the same person we were a decade ago. We learn, we grow, we change, hopefully for the better. As a married couple, you hope to grow together. That means strong communication.

Kids (having or not having, if you so desire) get in the way, life can get in the way. It's important to keep the marriage in focus, and let everything run down from there.

Keep in shape, keep being physical, be grateful for one another, pray together, accept shortcomings and be the one who picks up the slack for the things your spouse struggles with, do new things together...But gratitude is huge. Saying thank you for the smallest things i.e. making the bed, taking out the trash, etc. is important. It shows you are aware and thankful for their contribution to your life.

I guess, don't get lazy with each other.
