Everything in life works best if it is fine-tuned, properly maintained, and given an occasional tune-up. Cars, equipment, homes, buildings, and our bodies all work best when kept in proper working order with regular maintenance, an occasional tune-up, and repairs when needed.
Marriage is no different. That’s what this Website is all about: giving you ideas to help your marriage run smoothly.
And here’s our first piece of advice! Ask yourself: “Do I need marriage advice or a different perspective?”
Many folks seek advice – not to find great ideas, but to get ammunition – to prove they are right. If that sounds familiar, give yourself and your partner a break.

Things appear wrong when your partner has a different expectation than you have for a given situation. When your expectations are the same, everything looks right to both of you.
Would You Benefit From a New Perspective?
Aligning your expectations will give you a fabulous perspective on your marriage. It will also make the world of your marriage feel right to both of you. Our Creating Shared Expectations explores various aspects of this topic.
