Here are three questions you can use regularly to keep a gauge on your marriage.

Talking Points:

  • How am I doing with sharing the burdens of family life? This is where you can give practical feedback to your spouse and can help you improve in the future.
  • How am I doing at making our relationship a priority? This is where you can determine if you’re creating space and time for your spouse or just “clocking in” to the marriage.
  • How am I doing with communication? You have to communicate expectations, feelings, and thoughts, and you have to ask your spouse how you can improve.
