[quote=Anonymous]Happily together 33 years, with one SN child. What works for us:

I married someone I like a lot. We have the same general background -- married parents, middle class upbringing, college -- as well as the same career field.  Same politics, and now the same religion as well (he joined mine).   We don't have a huge HHI. It's around 120-150K depending on the year. Both of us work, but at times I've been the major breadwinner, and other times, he has.

We don't necessarily like all the same things -- I love football, he loves folk music -- but we definitely hate a lot of the same things -- Trump, rap music, golf and myriad other random things.

In the decades of marriage, we've only even cursed at each other twice I can think of. We are each other's biggest fans and will defend our spouse publicly. We never speak ill of each other in a public setting.

We try to be low-drama. We try to have as much fun as possible even without a lot of money or time and a SN kiddo to care for.

I want good things for my husband. He's a good person. I try to think, how would I treat one of my best friends?
