Marriage and relationships are trending topics again, huh? Married people really have a say in this, don't they 🌚

I think that establishing ground rules before marriage and finding a partner with a strong sense of commitment
—these two things matter more than anything else.
The biggest contract my husband and I made before marriage was: each family handles their own parents.
No matter what complaints your parents have about me, don't let me hear about it. You can relay things tactfully, but whether I listen or not is my decision.
Similarly, I'll handle my own parents.
Our business stays between us—don't let our parents meddle.
I don't do housework; I'll hire a cleaning service instead. If your family doesn't accept that, you deal with it—don't come complain to me.
Likewise, I've already told my parents that if they have any complaints about my husband, talk to me first.
Anyway, from before we got married until now, my husband has done great. I haven't heard his parents say anything bad about me. Even if they talk behind my back, I can't hear it, so I just pretend it didn't happen.
Outside criticism shouldn't be, and isn't allowed to be, directly projected onto your partner.
This way, you avoid 90% of household conflicts.
As for my husband and me, well, we haven't had a fight in half a year. Sometimes I want to pick a fight, but it just doesn't happen.
It's like we're an old married couple 🙃
