Marriage is not a 50 / 50 kind of a proposition � it is an 80% thing - you do your 80% and she does her 80% and you might meet in the middle!

If your wife doesn�t want to / can�t remember / does not understand the importance of / those kinds of things then it is YOUR job.
You can force someone to change but only for a little while.
