Hey there, I'm a young married guy (26), and I've been married a few years.
We've been married almost three years now, and as we've gotten older and become real adults my wife has gotten more complicated (life has in general). Not that that's a bad thing, but I can't make her happy with cheap flowers anymore.
She's mentioned she wants me to romance her, and put more effort into the relationship.
I'm really bad at that sort of thing. We got together because of shared interests, and our dates have never been very romantic.
When we were young and broke, I could take her to Olive Garden and it was easy, but we aren't (as) young and broke anymore. We both work (more than) full time and are busy. We don't spend every moment together like we did in college, and it's getting harder.
I'm lucky in that we still get along and have no kids, but I'm struggling with how to adapt to everything that's changing in my life. My parents didn't stay together (they broke up when I was a baby) so I don't really have a good map of what a healthy older couple looks like. I'm just trying to get ahead of things before it comes toppling down, you know?
So, how do y'all keep your relationships healthy as you get older?
