  1. Laziness: The couch is not your marriage's best friend.

  2. Suspicion: Sherlock Holmes didn’t need to live in your relationship.

  3. Lack of Trust: Without trust, what do you have left? An awkward roommate situation?

  4. Lack of Mutual Respect: Don’t treat your spouse like your personal assistant. They’re your partner!

  5. Unforgiveness, Bitterness, Hatred, Malice, and Anger: Holding grudges? That’s how you suffocate love.

  6. Unnecessary Arguments: Arguing over who left the toothpaste cap off? Seriously?

  7. Keeping Secrets: Secrets? Like passwords? Nope, marriage is about transparency.

  8. Infidelity (Financial, Emotional, Psychological, Material): Cheating comes in all shapes and sizes – and none of them are cute.

  9. Poor Communication: "I thought you knew" doesn’t work here.

  10. Lies: Little lies? Big problem. Be honest, or enjoy the slow burn.

  11. Prioritizing Parents and Family Over Your Spouse: Marriage isn’t a family reunion. Your spouse should be the one to come first.

  12. Lack of or Unenjoyable Intimacy: "Nah, I’m too tired" won’t do forever.

  13. Nagging: Less nagging, more hugging.

  14. Too Much Talk, Careless Talk: You’re not auditioning for a podcast. Pick your battles.

  15. Spending Little Time With Your Spouse: Quality over quantity, but both are important!

  16. Being Too Independent-Minded: You’re a team, not solo acts.

  17. Love for Partying, Money, Impulse Buying, and Financial Indiscipline: Prioritize your partner, not the next sale or the hottest club.

  18. Exposing Your Spouse’s Inadequacies to Your Parents/Siblings: Keep your dirty laundry between you two!

  19. Spurning Correction and Reprimands: Marriage is a partnership; feedback isn’t a personal attack.

  20. Always Wearing a Sad Face: Smile, it confuses people – in a good way.

  21. Extreme Feminism Advocacy: Balance, people! We’re all in this together.

  22. Male Chauvinism: Let’s be equal partners, not stereotypes.

  23. Uncontrolled Temper and Anger: Calm down, it’s not a WWE match.

  24. Not Understanding Your Role and Responsibility: Know what you bring to the table – and show up for it.

  25. Ignoring the Spiritual, Emotional, and Physical Needs of Your Spouse: Marriage is like a plant – water it!

  26. Threatening the Security of a Spouse: Your spouse is your rock, not your punching bag (metaphorically or literally).

  27. Lack of Knowledge and Obedience: Marriage isn’t a DIY project; sometimes, you need to learn from each other.

Remember: Keep it fun, keep it honest, and for heaven’s sake, keep it together!
