[quote=Anonymous]10:53 here.  I wish I had had this book much earlier in my marriage.

http://www.amazon.com/Improve-Marriage-Without-Talking-About/dp/0767923189/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1420733998&sr=8-1&keywords=how+to+improve+your+marriage+without+talking+about+it

Some of it is hoke, but it offers some pretty good perspective.  I saw two divorce attorneys in the span of one year, and came very close to moving out because we were roommates and I was resentful.   You need to find a way to stay present in your marriage and realize that you must let some things slide, but if they are going to bother you, you need to communicate.  We were at the point we could not communicate without anger.  We spent years in fruitless counseling.  We talked past each other.  In a last ditch effort, I tried to implement some of this book that I found used on a particularly dismal day of my marriage.

Stay connected, through kids, through better and worse.  Date night, remember why you are marrying, why he is right for you.

Sometimes, in life, you can only manage being a roommate.  It's finding your way back to intimacy that is hard, especially where there is resentment and anger.  Never let it get that far and you'll be good.
