I just read Jerry Seinfeld said everyone is a beginner at marriage until 10 years into it. Unfortunately most divorces happen before the 5th year.

Time is good because it gives us an opportunity to look back on our relationship patterns. If we see the pattern we can see what works and what doesn’t.

Everyone has great comments. Great post, makes you think about the way you spend your time. If you don’t take time for your spouse, you start to lose touch.

I agree. I think the more you can be together the better. I have friends who are together all the time they even work together. They say it is great and she wouldn’t have it any other way

It stinks that so often are brains simply do shuffle relationships under the rug without us even noticing.

Absolutely! I notice a difference in how hubbie and I interact/relate/talk to each other when we haven’t been spending enough time together. We both feel drained and it’s so important to put our relationship first because we have a little one who needs mommy and daddy to love each other so they can pour out all that love on him!

Even though our energy is usually sapped by the end of the day, my husband and I make a point of spending at least 1 hour together alone every night (even if t is just to watch the news!)

I like the idea of time as our basic commodity. So often people seem to think that money is more important.

Definitely interesting and relevant. Our living situation (Keith’s inability to drive due to a brain tumor) requires that he live during the week near his job, and that job is always temporary since he is a self-employed consultant, but our relationship does do much better when we are devoting the time we do have together in ways that show we value the relationship and enjoy our time together.
