Having been married forever,
 we long ago tested out the committment angle.Passion is just a long forgotten memory, intimacy is non existent when he's gone most of the time and the house is filled with adult children when he is home. I definitely have my own opinions on this, but would love to know what the rest of you feel are the 3 biggest stressors on a marriage. Anyone care to share?

1. Drama that we are caught between because of friends (we know a lot of newlyweds and so many of them are having problems...it's really stressful. We know two couples who are going through divorces right now. Sometimes we have different opinions about the best approach to take) 2. My emotions at times (sometimes I am overemotional and feel neglected or unloved when that is not his intention) 3. Hubby's forgetfulness at times (sometimes he forgets to do the things he says he will do like take out the trash, this contributes to #2)

1. Financial situations...no matter how much you try to keep this from affecting your marriage it does.
2. transitions through the stages of a marriage. For instance leaving the "newlywed stage". 3. problems with kids & other people around you
