Insights from Chapter 1

#1

The indicators of a healthy marriage are the basis of the seven questions presented in this book. Every couple should be aware of these issues before they get married.

#2

The first edition of this book was written ten years ago, and since then it has been used by hundreds of thousands of couples who want the best for their marriage. We have updated and expanded it with the latest and greatest information on lifelong love.

#3

The belief in a happily-ever-after marriage is one of the most widely held and destructive marriage myths. But it is only the tip of the marital-myth iceberg. Every difficult marriage is plagued by a vast assortment of misconceptions about what marriage should be.

#4

What we expect rarely happens, and what we least expect generally happens especially in marriage. Saying I do brings with it a host of expectations that aren’t always fulfilled.

#5

The first year of marriage revealed sharp and unexpected contrasts between what Cathy thought of as security, and what Neil thought of as boring. They valued many of the same things, but with different levels of intensity.

#6

There are always unspoken rules in a relationship. These rules are rarely spoken, but always known. Unspoken rules become more vocal when your spouse breaks them.

#7

The second source of mismatched expectations is the roles that you and your partner automatically fall into, without even realizing it. These roles are drawn from your personal dispositions, family backgrounds, and marital expectations.

#8

The expectations you bring to your marriage can make or break it. Do not miss out on the sterling moments of marriage because your ideals are out of sync with your partner’s.

#9

The myth that says everything will get better in a relationship is false. Every successful marriage requires necessary losses, and in choosing to marry, you inevitably go through a mourning process.

#10

The half-life of romantic love is about three months, after which you have only half the amount of romantic feelings you started with. The point is that you marry an image and only later discover the real person.

#11

The myth of Prince Charming and Cinderella is just a child’s fable, but deep down, we long for a Prince Charming or Cinderella to right the wrongs and make everything bad go away.
