mnowsa: any advice to have a happy and successful marriage will be appreciated
congratulations!! I hope it isn't an arranged marriage and you both are in love. My advice, enjoy every single moment of it while the feelings are still fresh, it's a great, probably the best time of your life. a relationship will work as long as you both want it work, even after the period of intense feelings is over.

it is an arranged marriage. And i don't know if we are in love, but she always makes feel wanted and desirable..and also if i don't see her smiley face, i rush to make her smile
Its difficult to say anything without knowing what the problem is, or even if there is a problem.
Actually, there is no problem (thanks to Allah almighty)...i just thought that i would like to listen to people about how to make our relationship even more dynamic and enjoyable

You ask advice in a single site where most people are divorced!!! and also see marriage from a western point of view.
As probably everyone already knows it here I have seen a lot of documentaries, among others how people live in the world and it seems to me that arranged marriages may work just fine, sometimes even better than love/infatuation marriages which last statistically in west only 6 years. Arranged marriages may turn into love and that may last entire life, I have seen it happening in those documentaries. You have that stability that the "love marriage" don't have, when people in west stopp loving each other they often divorce, while your marriage is a project to live together, so in that case make each other's life as pleasant as possible as long as possible. it seems to me that you have a good start already.

wow...you have it so eloquently, nevica! I understand i am asking this question in a single site where most people are divorced. I guess i want to learn about those things that lead to divorce so that i can exactly and absolutely avoid doing those things

Dude you are asking folks from other cultures to provide answers. And some of the folks answering have never been married. Good luck with contributing answers that work for you.

That sounds great. All of that already. I'd say you are getting there. You could not feel anything. Give it time and treasure her.
