Get pre-marriage counseling. It opened our eyes to a ton of things that we never even knew and it’s free.

sometimes you will be the one to say sorry even though you are not in the wrong. try not to go to bed mad. and sometimes just give him his way (vice versa).

Remember, marriage is not a child’s game, it’s forever. Marriage is a commitment. You will have pain and you will have joy. There will be a time that you won’t feel the butterflies in your stomach when you see him. There are a many things you need to remember. Love him even when he makes you angry. Respect him. After and during a fight hug him and tell him you love him. Communicate everything to him and do not hide anything. Work on your marriage, if it is going downhill, do something about it. Do not walk away during a fight. Marriage requires love, work, commitment, and truth. And remember, just because there is pain, does not mean you should just walk away. Good luck and God bless.
