Marriage can be made to work if both the partners can see beyond themselves and understand the limitations, needs and abilities of the other person and are willing to embrace the positive and negative aspects of each other in their understanding. But it never happens that way. We expect others to understand and comply with us while we fail to do the same. Thus marriage loses all it's sheen by the time the couple reaches middle age. .

About This Quote

Marriage is the most challenging relationship of all, but also the most rewarding. It is a relationship that requires constant compromise, hard work, and understanding. But it is worth it in the end. The key to making marriage work is to keep an open mind about the other person's needs and wants.

You don’t have to agree with your partner on everything, but you do have to respect them. Marriage isn't always smooth sailing; things are bound to go wrong at times. But instead of letting minor disagreements get in the way, you should work together to solve the problem until they are solved.
