I have been with my fiancée for 5 years now. When we first met it was so beautiful, I freely within my soul that God had brought him into my life, and blessed my with a man who was going to love me for me. At first that's exactly how it was, I was very honest when we first started talking I said to him that I had no problem taking care of my man like serving him dinner, washing his clothes, keepinga clean house, etc. as long as I was respected. Things were amazing the first year we were together. He always said he loved me, was very flirty with me, always made me feel wanted that I was attractive and sexy. We talked about everything and nothing, and now as times have passed that had all changed. We know have the stress of living on only one income, taking care of or kids and since I been laud off my job, the economy really sucks and I can't even find a job in fast food since nk one in my area is hiring. So my question is? How do you deal with these kinds of everyday struggles in your life? What works best for you? Add fits me I am just staying in portray, knowning that His had great plans fox our family with these trials and tribulations we area currently facing.

The most wonderful things in life don't come easy. I think you should talk to him. My college professor always had date nights with her husband. Their date night is Tuesday so every Tuesday of the week they go out. They hire babysitters to look after their kids. She said that a personal time alone with your partner is important for the relationship to be successful.

There were will be a time that love is so sweet to ponder. The only hindrance for having stress in a married life is the source of evil, the word "money". Don't be worried, love be more sweeter when the economic status overturned.
