Mutual trust and respect

"Now MEN..." Beth was quoted. "Men are like fine wine. They begin as grapes, and it's up to women to stomp the shit out of them until they turn into something acceptable to have with dinner."

One of the most vital elements in a successful marriage as all books will tell you is trust and respect. Greed, jealousy, mistrust and a host of wrong emotions dominate many marriages.

Trust and respect are a 2-way street.
