Most Couples Don't Do This

Published: Fri, 01/17/14

Dear ,
 
Want to be happier in your marriage? Then take
this relationship tip to heart:

Don't Fight Fair.

If you want to weaken your relationship, all you
have to do is fight fair.

Fighting fair is when you treat your spouse how
they treat you.

If they give you the cold shoulder, you give
them the cold shoulder.

If they clam up, you clam up.

If they dredge up the past, you dredge up the past.

If they hurt you then you hurt them.

Here's an idea...

...if your spouse hurts you, then instead of
hurting them back, forgive them.

...if your spouse raises their voice at you,
answer softly in return.

...if your spouse is unkind, be kind and
caring in return.


By not playing fair you change the dynamic
of your relationship and pave the way for
positive change; you create a new environment
by raising your standards.

The Bible calls this the Golden Rule - treat
others how you want to be treated.

In the coming days, take some time to
reflect on your marriage.
 
If you've been hurt by your spouse, why not
do something that warms their heart? When
you interact with them, use loving language
and caring actions - and see what happens.

Until next week, this is Mike & Gayle Tucker and
we want you to be mad about marriage!
