Seasoned Insights Any marriage takes lots of patience, commitment, and determination to stay together. This must come from both or it will not work. I personally think we had it easier (in the old days) when women had their work responsibilities and men had theirs. But now it takes two pay bills and women have to work outside the home. In my day it was a man’s haven to come home to a hot meal ready in a relaxed atmosphere. In our time of marriage, a housewife was an occupation and you worked at being the best, just as though you were working for an employer. I will always be grateful to Larry as he was so determined that I would stay home while our children were young therefore I didn’t work full time outside until they left home. My home and family was my main concern. – Larry & Vera Beach, Married 56 years
