About This Quote

If you are in a troubled marriage, you may be trying to “fix” your spouse’s faults. When you do this, you are actually doing the opposite of what is necessary. You are trying to “fix” what makes him or her who they are. Instead of working on your spouse’s flaws, which can never truly be changed, focus on the parts of your spouse that you love about him or her. This will help your marriage evolve and prosper by making it stronger and happier.
