What's Wrong With My Truck Contest? (Ends: April 16, 2010)

TDR Website for Dummies Contest (Ends: April 9, 2010)

Buy three romantic valentine cards.

Buy three romantic anniversary cards.

Buy three romantic (or cute) birthday cards.

Sign all nine.

Hide them in the garage.

When she says "You forgot (our anniversary\my birthday\valentines day)... " you'll thank me.
 
If there is one thing to always, and I mean always, remember is those special days of the year like birthdays, valentines day, anniversary day, etc. Cards, flowers, special getaways or that special gift will help keep the peace. Above all show your love every day and tell her so.
 
Marriage

Always remember that it is a give and take relationship. Many times you have to give when you really don't want to but just remember that the next time it may be the spouse's turn to give. Can't be one way all the time. Most marriages, like life, are a series of ups and downs, good times and not so good times. Don't expect perfection and you'll be ahead of the game! Congratulations to you all!
 
Im engaged myself so my advice is... Just never leave a fight unresolved. Working your problems out together will only make you stronger and grow together even more! Believe me! Im in the military and being away makes things hard but not talking about problems makes things even harder! Just take every day as it comes and remember! We need women just as much as they need us!

Hey Guys,



My advice is to always treat your true love with the best of care and respect. Treat her right and never abuse her and she will always do you right. This goes for your wife too. Good luck!

Guys Getting Married

Always remember to keep and open line of communication going. I once went to marriage counseling and the single best piece of advice that I received and it really works is just to take 30 minutes a day to talk to each other and to really listen. Your wife doesn't expect you to FIX everything but she does want you to listen.

Also keep God in the center of your marriage and you will be fine.
 
May 22 will be 35 years for us. The secret is this. God has made two one. It is not a trick or complicated. You want success, happiness, joy??? Give these things to each other/to your spouse and you will have them yourself. EXAMPLE you want a black smoke boiling hot dodge diesel to cruise in ... ... what is it that your spouse truly wants?????



When you give to one you give to the other... when you hurt one you hurt the other!!!



Really simple logic hard to learn it is against our nature. But it is possible.



Peace, nape
 
"Keep your eyes wide open before marriage, half shut afterwards. "



Don't be blinded, Love struck so to be, and rush into marriage. People rarely show their true colors, who they are up front. We tend to live behind false fronts, afraid of what others might think.



We're quick to overlook flaws and see the best in one another before marriage, do the same and more afterwards. None of us are perfect.



I told my wife I was close to perfect, because I've only made one mistake. That's when I thought I made a mistake, ... and I really didn't. She replied, . . yeah right, and laughed.



In any relationship, ... get your eyes off yourself, and strive to see and understand the other persons view point, ... be quick to listen and slow to speak. Looking to serve one another, rather than to lord over. Applies to even a CEO of a large corporation!!!



Recipe for disaster;

This is MY Castle, I'M on the throne and this IS the way it's going to be!



Love is not about getting what you want, ... it's about giving, understanding, compassion, mercy, grace.



You want to be happy? Become a dispenser of GRACE.



Love is a decision, an action, ... not simply a feeling.



Galatians 6:1

Brethren, if a man is overtaken in any trespass, you who are spiritual restore such a one in a spirit of gentleness, considering yourself lest you also be tempted.



Philippians 4:8

Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, ... honest, ... just, ... pure, ... lovely, ... of good report; if there be any virtue, ... any praise, think on these things.



Lastly, ... Remove the word, Divorce, from your vocabulary, it's not an option.



Married 37+ years, 9 kids 5 boys 4 girls, 18 grand-kids w/ one on the way.



And, ... I'm not perfect.



Congratulations and wishing you the Best!!!
 
1. Respect includes not reacting strongly to random criticisms.

2. Patience is always rewarded.

3. A good deed for us is remembered for a month but for DW it has a 24 hour half life.

4. Shop, cook and clean-up on a regular basis, especially if DW is working out of the house.

5. Don't invite guests if you are not willing to do a good portion of the work involved in entertaining.



You are embarking on a wonderful journey - enjoy every day!
 
Good luck to all and having just recently gotten married myself I can tell you to get used to watching shows on TV like - "Americas next top model" "Say Yes to the Dress" and many others... Jack Wittmann
 
Congratulations!!! Marriage is about communication and taking the time to really listen to each other. Be gentle in conversation,and to serve our Lord and Savior. There will always be bumps in the road,But always remember to HOLD HANDS!
BEST ALWAYS !

Advice for the new married guys

Rule 1: Love her like there is no tomorrow.



This is a collorary of "Drive it like you stole it" rule. Live for the day, and love every minute of it.
 
Your Cummins: Drive it like you stole it!

Your wife: Love her like you stole her!



That has worked for Marilyn and myself for 46 years.
 
I'm the last person in the world to give any advice - my first marriage ended in flames after 13 years, and it took two bitter years in court to end it. I lost just about everything that mattered to me.



oh, what the heck, I'd like to win this give-away, I'll give you guys some advice:



DON'T GET MARRIED!

if you fail to follow this advice - make sure get a Prenuptial agreement.



I don't want everyone to think I'm a single old cynical *******. (I'm not that old, and I'm not single!)



I found the most wonderful woman two years after the divorce from hell. Our very first date was on 9/11/2001, that's an anniversary that I'll never be able to forget. We've been together for 9 years now and neither one of us is in a hurry to get married. We might some day, right now there is no over ridding reason for us to get married.



Find a person with whom you share common interests outside of the bedroom. My girlfriend and I both have a huge love of cars, racing, ice racing, camping, renn faires and a dozen other assorted hobbies. Without her I never would have taught myself how to work on silly little german cars (porsche's), and without her prodding I probably wouldn't have bought a Dodge CTD, not to mention the 5th wheel I haul around.



My best advice: find a friend; live in sin for at least a decade, THEN think about getting married!



Good luck guys!



Jim P...
