A Time for Two
The first year of a marriage is very important as many couples form lifelong habits. Therefore, I recommend that newlywed couples take time during the first few weeks and months to really get to know each other. This may mean shutting off the t.v. and other distractions such as the internet. Couples who develop good interaction patterns early in their marriage will find more strength in the years that follow. Good habits established early in the relationship will last a lifetime.
The Honeymoon Nightmare
Recently, I have been conducting interviews related to dating and marital abuse. I have been absolutely shocked by how many individuals have been completely rejected by their spouse on their honeymoon. If this has happened to you I encourage you to talk with someone other than your spouse about what is happening. Honeymoons should be fun and exciting not a nightmare. Talk with someone (i.e. a family member, a counselor)!
Boundaries With Families
Many newly married couples struggle with creating their own boundaries. Consequently, couples sometimes struggle with how to interact with their in-laws. It is important for couples to discuss before it causes problems. If you can get along with each others parents you are lucky. If you and your spouse cannot figure out how to deal with in-laws, step back and analyze what things are relevant to deal with and which are not. For example, how often to visit in-laws or how much financial support is okay from families. If you cannot agree with your spouse consider the long term consequences of taking a stance and whether your relationship is worth the argument. It is important for you to not put down your spouses family. This generally will hurt your relationship.
I Do
I do! What a wonderful statement. However, what does it mean? I do WHAT? Have you reviewed recently what you said I do to? The promises and commitments we make during our marital vows are binding. We should take these vows very serious and review them periodically so we always remember what we promised our spouse and society.

Q.
My fiance and I are getting married July 4. I am in the Marines stationed in Iwakuni, Japan. I still have a problem with telling my parents everything that my fiance and I talk about. I believe this originates from me being real close to my parents. This obviously really hurts her, because she feels she cant trust me. Is there anything I can do practice not telling my parents every little thing her and I talk about, or much less do. Thank you, John
