I never got any advice...my parents are divorced so something wasn't working there. If I had to give advice after 12 years of marriage I would say to be sure you share the work load (kids, house, etc.) so that neither of you feel overwhelmed.
By miguel,

2 suggestions...
1 - Get rid of the kids! Hah! Seriously though, even just for an evening, it does wonders.
2 - No, seriously... get rid of the kids!
By Shannon,

Date night. One night a week, get a babysitter and spend time alone together relaxing. We will celebrate 27 years soon and without that time as a "couple" we would have been completely out of touch with each other when the kids left home.

I'm not married nor do I have kids but my parents have a great marriage. My mom works in another state and only sees my dad once a month but they have been married for 25 years (26 in June). My dad calls my mom at 7pm every night and they talk for at least 2 hours. That's the secret to a great marriage - communication.

By Jerry,
From Middleton
We all know it is not always easy to find a babysitter and frankly I am not leaving my children with a teenager I do not know...the world is not what it was when I was young. So make the time for a kiss, a hug, a note. Let each other know that you are still their world. Keep a schedule for the kids bedtimes because it is that time that you two get to reconnect and share your days, to talk, to play, to love. My wife will come up to me and just say "Wow, you rock my world babe", and it makes me laugh, laughter is what keeps us going.

Spontaneous acts of kindness and expressions of love ...the simpler the better. Unexpected flowers, a little note, a simple caress at the kitchen sink, ... just be sure it's focused on saying I LOVE YOU! ...Date nights help too. Always be true because trust and commitment is what it's all based on.
