How can two people stand at an altar and swear they will love each other until "death do us part" and then just a few years later hate each other more than they have ever hated anyone? How can the person to whom she gave her deepest vow become the person she despises most? What can we do to avoid this become us?

To avoid this type of situation in any marriage each person must never forget the reason they married their spouse in the first place. I would recommend keeping a scrapbook, or photos, or written records of times of happiness, and reasons why you love your spouse. In times of grief reflect on the moments that bond. Dwell not on the temporary anger. So often it is too late to recognize these past moments which were once the foundation of the relationship. We feel that we would be better off without our spouse in those moments. But if couples purposely, consistantly, and geniuinely remind themselves of the what they mean to one another, it makes the tough times easier to bare.
