Water Your Grass

Each day I become more surprised at how many topics must be discussed from the very beginning of or even before a marriage. We spent a whole class talking about making clear, firm boundaries around a marriage and discussing a couple of rules that would help prevent infidelity: not being alone with a guy in a car, having a joint facebook account, etc. I never realized how prevalent these issues are. It seems so easy to fall to temptation after all the stories told in class.

Infidelity starts slowly like with everything else in life. It may just be a thought like “oh, I wish my husband would clean the garage as well as ted”. Your spouse cannot be compared like that. It isn’t fair to them and starts you off in a path of infidelity. "The grass is greener…on the side of the fence you water." You have to make sure you spend your times and efforts on tour spouse not on someone else. When we do this your marriage will be more fulfilling. Affairs can be prevented by making boundaries then sticking to them.
