The following 5 little things really matter in marriage;

1. Listening

Listen to your partner. Grant them listening ears whenever they want to put across their points. Listen to your partner's worries, dreams and any other thing he/she wants to communicate. 

2. Apology

Whenever you wrong your partner, put your ego and pride aside and apologise. Remember saying "sorry" doesn't mean you are weak. Be quick to say sorry and ask for forgiveness.

3. Express your love often

Despite the number of years you have been in a marriage, don't assume that your partner knows you love them. Express it as often as you can. Your partner won't get tired of you saying "I love you".

4. Be happy together

Make jokes, laugh uncontrollably, go places, have an adventure and just give each other a million reasons to be happy. You understand that no one regrets being happy.

5. Parent together

Do you have kids? Make them a responsibility for both of you. Don't leave one person to give the kids good parenting. Your marriage will be stronger if you make equal efforts to bring up your kids.
