The Best Marriage Advice From Dads (#Awww)

Remember Your Anniversary

"Being married is not just a vow, a commitment, or a declaration. It is a path for two people who love each other to follow throughout all of the changes life brings. Like any path, it will have its twists and turns, and ups and downs, but don't ever forget that it is taken together. Keep moving, and have a wonderful journey. Oh, and Valentine's day and wedding anniversaries are the most important days of the year." – Joe C.

"Love, I would hope goes without saying, is the backbone of marriage. I would suggest you not just sit back enjoying this awesome feeling of love, as if you are due it.

Think of her/him as more important than yourself. Let her/him know how wonderful they are and how much better your life is because she/he is a part of it. In the words of one much better at giving advice, "Tell her about it. Let her know how much you care… Though you may not have done anything, will that be a consolation when she's gone?" – Billy Joel. As a matter of fact, a good bit of closing advice might be to give the entire song a listen about once a week." – Billy H.
