When I married my first husband my older Filipino aunt told me to remember 3 things to keep a marriage happy:
1) Wake up 30 min before him and go to sleep after him so he never sees you without makeup. (I was like "F that, he's going to see me in childbirth so who cares about makeup")
2) Always wake up to make him breakfast and no matter what time he comes in, offer to cook him something. (I was like "F that, he knows how to pour cereal and use a microwave")
3) Never ever refuse him sex. Even if you don't want it there are other ways to please him. (at that point I threw up a little in my mouth with the mental picture I got of her and my overweight uncle getting it on)
Needless to say I'm happily divorced.
