[quote=Anonymous]One of the tough things about marriage is that of course you know how your spouse is when you get married (I knew he was more affectionate for example and not great at dealing with conflict). What you don't know is how those traits will manifest when you add children and houses and more stressful jobs and medical issues and elderly grandparents and whatever else. And you also don't realize, for example, how important conflict resolution skills will become when you have a comparatively low-stress life. People always say "why did you marry him if you knew your libidos weren't totally in sync?" but it isn't so simple. I guess knowing what I know now, he's not a good match for me in some ways. But he remains an awesome match for me in other ways. I didn't know to wait until I met someone who was exactly like me and anyways I don't think you ever find that person. So the trick is to recognize and appreciate the ways in which you are different and both partners need to be willing to put in the effort to meet their spouse part-way on things. [/quote]
