Marriage Advice: If You Could Go Back in Time to When You Were First Married, What Advice Would You Give Yourself?

24 minutes

We’re coming up in August on 12 years of being married and wanted to give some tips of things we’ve learned over these years together. Adam states that if he had to go back in time, he would communicate differently, even when he was tired and didn’t want to listen, he would never take Rosie for granted, and then Rosie suggests she would have done regular date nights. We never went on a honeymoon, but feel now that going on one would have been a really nice experience where we could just enjoy being with each other. Somewhere within our marriage, Adam mentioned that he got a bit complacent and forgot to keep trying to woo Rosie, which they are now trying to rekindle that aspect of their relationship.

What would we do differently? Honeymoon 1:10
Continuing to court and woo 5:10
Finances and being on the same page 6:45
Communicating intimacy 9:45
Laughter 13:05
Being flexible 20:25
Marriage is working together to achieve 100% 22:10

“I find it hard to switch from business mode to dad-husband mode, and I find it really difficult. So I use that drive up through the canyon, through the mountains. It’s like putting on my different hat. I fail at it every day pretty much, give or take.” 15:38
