You're a team. The best team! I married my best friend, and I think that we are unstoppable together. He pushes me to be my best, and I hope I do the same for him. Because of him, I want to be a better wife and mother, and all around better person. I see that too many people these days are only concerned about their accomplishments and making sure they are satisfied. It makes me sad for them because I think they're missing out. (And maybe they think I'm missing out since I have a kid, dog, and husband to worry about. To each their own.)
In marriage, there are huge decisions to make. When to start your family. To buy/sell a home. Where/what to eat for dinner. How you will raise your children. If you'll have a family pet. Whose family to visit on which holiday. The list goes on, and is different for every family. One piece of advice my mom has always given me, is to make sure things are always fair. Whether it be in a relationship, business deal, etc., things work out best when everyone is somehow satisfied. Meet in the middle. Another thing I've learned is that my mom is always right. Her advice never leads me in the wrong direction.
Basically, be fair. You can't win every single time, unfortunately.
