  1. Its just the ability to know what works best for you in marriage and understanding the kind of relationship do you have with your husband. There some couples whose lives are just full of fun and entertainment. You wonder if they ever get serious to get things done. But that's how they've been able to run a successful marriage, by staying true to themselves.
