7. I make time together with my wife a priority.
Affair-proofing your marriage isn’t just about “defense” (eliminating unhealthy behaviors). It’s also about being proactive when it comes to investing in your marriage. Ashley and I are always looking for ways to spend time together and invest in our relationship and creating resources to help other couples do the same. Don’t let your marriage get stuck on autopilot, or else there’s a good chance it will crash someday! Keep investing into your relationship with each other!
8. I talk openly and positively about my wife in conversations and online.
When you vent about your spouse in a negative way in conversations on online, you’re opening the door for an affair. One of the best ways to build up your marriage is to use your words to build up your spouse when you’re together and when you’re apart. The tone of your words will shape the tone of your marriage.
