my wife holds resentment (and rightfully so) towards my parents for showing favoritism to my nieces and nephew over my daughter and gets mad at them frequently but i live by this rule. she thinks i'm OK with the favoritism because i don't get mad when in reality i'm trying to help her realize she'll be happier if she just lets it go and focuses on our daughter.
What a shite take this is you huge vagina, you. Your poor wife and daughter. How about get off your lazy, scared arse and make your parents fix their BS instead of insisting your wife just get over YOUR PARENTS BS that YOU are allowing? Oh but she just needs to let it go? What a winner you are.

I have a wonderful wife. I have never been, and never will be with a better woman and wife.
I almost missed out because she wouldn't put out on the first date. Our first date consisted of a Mexican restaurant in Manchester, TN...her suggested place. It was the worst Mexican food either of us have ever eaten. I am not sure what made me go back. Her joke to this day, "you were going to hit and run...too bad I'm not that kind of girl." She is correct. That was the plan.
I literally thank God that I went back.
A few years after my last divorce. I prayed to God. "Please send me a good, Christian woman to spend my life with." Eight years after my last divorce. He answered with her.
One thing we do. We spend an hour or so everyday just lying on the bed holding each other and talking. Sometimes we get carried away and sometimes we don't.
I love her dearly. I trust her explicitly. We will be together until death do us part.

Jeezus Christmas Cookies, Dude. His take is pretty fricking mature and not lazy at all. It takes incredible awareness, restraint, and vision of the big picture to have his perspective.
Not everyone approaches conflict resolution with guns blazin' like you obviously do.

Lol do you two get your weed, Xanax, and anti-depressants from the same place? Something is pacifying the ability to handle problems and it isn't "maturity".
I am definitely scorched earth in my conflict resolution. You will never see me telling my wife to "eat up and try to enjoy the bread" when being served a shite sandwich from my parents or anyone else.
ETA:
The guy admits that his parents treat his own daughter like less which upsets his wife very much. The answer to that crap is in no way to tell the wife to get over it. Thats insane. Do better Bojangles.

Good to hear all these stories of quality marriages.
I have been married for 11 years now. We have 2 elementary school kids in private school and sports.
I am generally happy enough but the actual marriage part sucks and I have given up on it.
I find happiness in being a good dad and sometimes my job.
It is not with her though because she made it all about the kids a long time ago and is over reactive and argues with me too much on too many issues. She doesn't get how to be a good wife...nor does she care to, nor will she go to counseling or church. So here we are-basically just parenting.
I can handle it. I just want to raise good kids. I am responsible for my own happiness.

27 years and going strong. Spend most of everyday by each other and get along great.
Acceptance and respect go a long way.

His wife, much like you, appear to struggle with entitlement. Nobody owes you, your wife or your kids anything.
Bojangles meanwhile appears to have found that wonderful inner peace that comes from knowing what you can and cannot control.
But seriously though, score keeping is pure arsenic in a marriage.

Very happy. 40 years and counting. Raised 4 kids….lotsa grands.
Life has been good. I’m thankful I got to live during some great decades.
On my knees about what’s coming.

Traditional marriage is really more of a business arrangement that allows people to pass along their genetic legacy. the way people feel about their spouse is less important than if they can be trusted to raise 50% of their DNA into healthy, happy adulthood and future generations.
the majority of long term relationships fail... that doesn't mean they end up in divorce. No...they have financial obligations and children to raise. it just means couples grow apart, end up sexless and in a roommate situation.
Marriage takes a relationship, slaps a contract on it and tells people, You have to stay with this person NO matter what because the alternative is ostracized by society, shamed on SM, and one half of the relationship is divorce raped in court.

I'm sorry that happened to you.

I could live a million lifetimes and I’d choose her in every single one.

Yes. My wife is my best friend and partner in crime. No one I would rather do life with. The sex ain't bad either.
