Golden rule of marriage # 3: people can change -I've seen even the most troubled marriages improve. It's never too late.

Golden rule of marriage #4: men & women communicate differently. Gender differences often account for miscommunication/emotional disconnection.

Golden rule of marriage # 5: nagging is an attempt to make things better. When one spouse gives up, nagging ends. Divorce is in the works.
