Fighting for Your Marriage Quotes

“A great marriage is predicted not so much by your finding the right partner as by your being the right partner.”
― Howard J. Markman, Fighting for Your Marriage: Positive Steps for Preventing Divorce and Preserving a Lasting Love

“Negative interpretations are a good example of mind reading. Mind reading occurs when you assume you know what your partner is thinking or why he or she did something. When you mind-read positively, it does not tend to cause any harm. But when your mind reading includes negative judgments about the thoughts and motives of the other, you may be heading toward real trouble in your marriage.”
