[quote=Anonymous]A couple of things worked for us: 1. We agreed on a relationship philosophy before we got serious. She had me read the book His Needs/Her Needs. And while it seems antiquated now, it made us talk about what we needed from the other to be happy. Any time we got off track, each of us could just point back to the book and say “I need x”. 2. We didn’t lose ourselves to being super parents. We viewed the health of our relationship as the cornerstone of our child’s well-being. When he moved off to college we still had a relationship. 3. We always prioritized our health and fitness. And spending on anything fitness or health related was almost auto approved. 4. We never went more than a week, maybe two (except for when our dad was born) without sex. [/quote]
