Word count:
"Can two walk together, except they be agreed?"
Book review: Things I wish I'd known before we got married
For over thirty years, couples have sat in my office and made the following complaints:
----> "His mother wants to tell me how to cook. I've been cooking for ten years. I don't need her help."
---> "Her father doesn't like me. He tells his friends that his daughter married down. I guess he wanted me to be a doctor or a lawyer. I don't have the heart to tell him that as a plumber, I am making more money than either one of them."
---> "His sister and his mother never include me in their social activities. They invite his brother's wife, but they never invite me."
---> "Her brother is addicted to sports. We don't have much in common. I don't think he has read a book in years and he has no interest in politics."
---> Her father is an accountant. Everytime we are together, he's giving me advice on how to manage our money. Frankly, I don't usually agree with his advice, but I try to be nice."
----> My wife's parents give her money to buy things we can't afford. I resent that. I wish they would let us live our own lives."
(Watch out for comments from family)
