The idea of relationship rules may seem a little strange.
Maybe rules aren’t your thing. Maybe you thrive when rules are there. Or maybe you love to push the limits on rules. Shout out to all my rule breakers!
But building a healthy relationship is all about consistency. And rules are a great way to prioritize certain ideas. Rules can help you build consistent patterns in your relationship.
Ready to talk all about how to have a healthy marriage?
Great, me too! Let’s dive right in!
First, let’s make one thing very clear.
Can you define what makes a good relationship?
I can.
Do you know the exact steps to follow to learn how to have a good relationship?
I do. Sort of. Kind of. To a point.
We are all different. Every person individually and every relationship. And there’s tons of different relationship advice out there. SO MUCH ADVICE.
A healthy relationship.
Yeah, I’ll take one of those. How about you?
Silly question. Of course, you want to be part of a healthy relationship.
But when it comes to how to have a healthy relationship, it takes a little more effort than just saying we want one.
Let’s talk about relationships! One of my favorite things to talk about.

But back to the point. We are going to dive deep into the idea of how to have a better relationship.
Are there things we can do that will make building a better relationship a smoother ride?
A better coffee maker. A better phone.
Better sheets for your bed. Better face lotion.
Most of us have thought about things like this. Things in our lives that may be in need of a little upgrade.
Has the thought of how to have a better marriage ever popped into your head?
Would you say you have a good marriage?
Would you describe your marriage as happy?
Here’s the thing. When it comes to how to have a good marriage, there isn’t a secret handbook out there that has all the answers.
When was the last time you read some really good marriage advice?
I’m talking about that feeling you get when you read something and it feels like it was written just for you. You find yourself nodding your head very aggressively. Almost shocked that these words are describing bits and pieces of your life pretty accurately.
Here is a better question.
Give me all the marriage books. Give me all the marriage podcasts and TED talks!
