My Answer Making Our Marriage Work

Lots of people have asked me what we do to make our marriage work. It's simple, we don't do anything.

I think the trouble with a lot of people is that they work too hard at staying married. They make a business out of it. When you work too hard at a business you get tired; and when you get tired you get grouchy; and when you get grouchy you start fighting; and when you start fighting you're out of business.

Hmm, I think it varies with circumstances. In my case I really should have worked harder at making our marriage work well. We were married to the very end but for quite a while neither of us was entirely satisfied with it, but we never figured out how to talk about it.
