I LOVE giving advice so thought this was perfect for me. I actually came here to GET advice and ended up GIVING it. Ask me anything, i do not care what it is. I'm married with 4 kids so i'd be real good at relationship advice or parenting advice. I'll answer them the best way i can! Through my own personal experiences.

I love my husband to death but we have not been getting along i know that i can be picky sometimes but what woman is not. So my husband made a promise to me that he would not smoke anymore so when he asked yesterday i immediatly said no and of course he got mad. So today he tells me he has been thinking alot and since we have gotten together i have tried to change everything about him and pretty much hes the one that tries to make me happy but i dont do it in return! so my question is what should i do about this?????? I told him from the beginning what i was looking for and now hes mad!I really just feel like this relationship is sinking and sinking fast.

okay. I'm married too. You have to give some and take some. If he made a promise, then he should keep it! But IF he doesn't keep his promise to not smoke, it's not the end of the world. Just make sure you let him know that you understand how hard it is to stop smoking. Or heres another idea... compromise with him. Try to see if he will come to an agreement on how much he smokes and how often. Men do not like to be told what to do! And marriage is all about compromising anyway so try that. That way he is happy too because he doesn't feel like your trying to "change" him. If he said you dont try to make him happy then prove him wrong by telling him you want to compromise. If he doesn't want to compromise then he's just selfish! I've learned from my marriage that things are not always what you thought they were in the beginning unfortunately. But just try to let him be him, but also respect your wishes and keep his promises. I hope that works for you Christy
