They say laughter is the key to making a relationship work long term, but that can be hard to remember when someone is eating ice cubes in bed while you’re trying to write.
Ahem.
Seriously, though, marriage has its fair share of ups as well as downs, and it’s just nice to know that we’re not alone in the madness, you know?
14. You will need a flannel shirt.
WIFE: hey wanna try some role play?

11. It’s important to support your spouse’s interests.
My husband just strung together the most nonsensical combination of curse words while screaming at football on the tv and instead of pointing out that none of those words go together I just nodded and said, “That’s what I’m talking about” and that’s how you make marriage work.

10. So you’re saying you don’t want to use these handcuffs…

2. I have faith in you.
I've been home for 2 hours and my wife has rolled her eyes at me at least 9 times. I gotta land on an even number so wish me luck!
