- You never keep a tally
When you truly love someone, it is given selflessly and fully. It doesn’t matter what the other party has done for you, or if they deserve it.
Your marriage is a wise one if neither spouse keeps tabs on who gave the last sign of affection, if you received it back, or if they behaved in such a way you thought they should get more or less love.
Keeping score in a marriage only results in bitterness. No scorecard is ever exact, but a loving spouse knows that you will both be there for each other when you need it.
