			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><div class='posterous_autopost'>Every young married couple starts out thinking they will be different. 
<p />They&#39;ll be truthful, they&#39;ll never lose their passion for each other&#8230;
<p />They&#39;ll raise their children better, they&#39;ll always fight fair.
<p /> But every single one of us has something going against us.
<p />Our culture, while demanding that people &quot;get married and be happy&quot; gives every one of us negative messages about marriage.
<p />You expect that sooner or later you have to compromise.
<p /> You expect that &quot;the honeymoon&quot; is &quot;soon over.&quot;
<p />You expect that &quot;passion will die.&quot;
<p />You expect that women will see men as &quot;boys.&quot;
<p />You expect that men will see women as &quot;emotional&quot; and &quot;hysterical.&quot;
<p /> The deck is stacked against you.
<p />Most individuals and most couples fall prey to the &quot;cultural messages.&quot;
<p />People in great marriages are different.
<p />They talk to each other differently.
<p /> They don&#39;t fall for the &quot;standard bullshit&quot; most people do about relationships and marriage.
<p />They have a set of skills you don&#39;t have.
<p />They know the secrets of communication.
<p />If you want a great marriage, you&#39;ll learn those skills too.
<p /> You&#39;ll clear the bullshit out of your head and learn to communicate powerfully and intimately.
<p />I made this for you so you can have a great marriage:

<p /> Go there and start thinking differently, escape the herd.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><div class='posterous_autopost'>A lot of people think they can &quot;slide&quot; on their marriage.
<p />They think that problems will just &quot;eventually go away&quot; or &quot;after the kids are gone things will be better&quot; or &quot;If it gets too bad, I&#39;ll just leave and meet someone new.&quot;
<p /> Here&#39;s a dose of reality.
<p />None of that is going to happen.
<p />It&#39;s not going to get better &quot;later.&quot;
<p />You may leave the marriage and find someone new, but it&#39;s going to be the same situation with them.
<p /> The problems &#8211; and the solutions &#8211; are right there at home.
<p />They are literally staring back at you in the mirror.
<p />You think that your partner is the problem.
<p />Wrong.  You are the problem.
<p />Now you may think I&#39;m wrong, but I&#39;m not.
<p /> The problem is that you can&#39;t communicate.
<p />So now it&#39;s time to decide whether to get your communication skills in order or&#8230;
<p />Die unhappy and unsatisfied when you come to the end of your life.
<p /> Do you think things are tough now?
<p />Then try getting old with no one there to comfort you.
<p />Or feeling like no one truly understands you or cares for you.
<p />Try living the single life.
<p />Look, it&#39;s time to choose.  Improve your marriage or die alone.
<p /> There&#39;s really only one way to improve your relationship and that is to learn how to communicate the right way.
<p />Anyone who says &quot;well marriage just isn&#39;t that important to me&#8230;&quot;  -  now you know what that means.  They have given up.
<p /> Anyone who makes a sick joke about marriage is headed for absolute solitude and a sad ending.
<p />People in great relationships get it.  They get the rewards, and they know how sacred it is.
<p />If you want to get it, you have to see how important marriage is and put in an effort to communicate.
<p /> Time slips by.
<p />You have maybe one more chance, now take it.
<p /><a href="http://www.NowYouCanCommunicate.com">http://www.NowYouCanCommunicate.com</a>
<p />Don&#39;t fall into the trap of thinking that marriage is not that important.
<p /> Just think how relieved you will feel when you see your relationship improve&#8230; because you know how to communicate better.
<p />Ahhhhh, so much better.
<p />That&#39;s why I created this for you
<p />And I want you to take it for a test drive by clicking here:
