A good marriage requires giving one another space... and plenty of room to breathe:

LOL...cute.

In general we prefer:

The 50% compromise helping each other, being on the same page, working, talking, spouses, family, knowing when to give and when to take.

The 40% of fun, laughing, playing, teasing, flirting, spouses, family, kids, etc.

The 10% leave me alone. Leave others, spouse, family, kids, alone.

I forgot about this thread, Lol.

Yeah that sounds like a pretty good balance.

Btw, this is a thread on marriage tips with illustrations, so include one if you're gonna post. :Broadly:
Putting one's foot down, when necessary.

What? nobody posted a "like" to the above?!! What's the matter with you people?

Maybe more of a man's thing, but I'm doubling down on it just the same! (especially the bottom right corner). :p

Own pets! They're cheaper than children, and easy to blame things on.

I blame the dogs for everything. She never buys it, but it never stops me.

Do little things for each other. With us, she buys me food I like, or she'll bring home an order from a restaurant when she goes eat out with her sister. I'll pick up fast food she likes, or Dairy Queen deserts, or whatever I'm having if I don't plan on eating it before I get home, Lol.

It works best when it's a surprise, like having a breakfast from McDonalds waiting for her for when she wakes up, together with a paper sitting on the table.

Flowers! I used to be into this habit Big Time, but then the store that sold singles near my house closed down.

Still, when you can afford it, flowers do the trick.
