Well Said: Marital problems and comfort zones

The biggest contributor to marital problems and, eventually, marital breakdown is that husbands and wives tend to love their own comfort zones more than they love each other.

Ain't that the truth! It is my continual battle with myself, which tells you where I live ... struggling with my comfort zones!

So let me give you part two to that idea, from the same source.

Learning to love your spouse more than you love your comfort zone means being willing to be loving to your spouse in ways that make absolutely no sense to you but mean everything to your mate.

Which is the biggest form of respect in a lot of ways. And also, of course, of love.
