Most things that are worth having in life do not come easy. We make tremendous sacrifices and put forth great effort to achieve our goals in life so when we attain these goals, the rewards are all the sweeter.
Realizing that nothing good comes easy in life, please share with me what you believe your greatest challenge is for you in your relationship.

Hi Patty Ann,
I find that my greatest challenge in my marriage is finding time to spend together. If we’re not working, cleaning, running errands, or taking care of our daughter, we are usually sleeping. We get very little time just with each other during the week. I think that is the biggest challenge.

HI Rachel, Your comments reflect a very common struggle most of us dual-working couples have in our relationship. The best way to find time for each other is to have a date night planned every single week. A real date. Put it on the calendar and get dressed up for it. You know what I mean, think about the clothes you want to wear, how to style your hair, accessories, make-up etc.
On a day to day basis keep the romance alive with little things, like surprise notes placed on the driving seat in their car telling your partner you love them -or put a sticky note with a heart drawn on it on the bathroom mirror. Do little things that let your partner know you are thinking about them throughout the day – leave them a vm on their work phone. Little things go a long way. If it will bring a smile to your face, it wll bring a smile to your partner’s face too and this “create” moments of togetherness in your heart!
I’ve been married for a year and two months and the greatest challenge that I face in our marriage is our distance. My husband is an OFW and it seems he doesn’t trust me at all.We communicate through the internet and even my not wearing sleeveless is a big deal. I told him I’m not comfortable anymore wearing those because I gain weight so I just wear my casual tshirts and shorts at home. He’s so suspicious and I don’t like it him being one.Actually, we’ve known each other through chat and it’s barely 3 months that we’ve spent life together.
