Expertise

I attempt to answer most questions concerning marriage, commitment to a spouse, and what it takes to make a marriage an excellent and enriching experience for both partners.

Experience in the area

I have been married for 23 years to a wonderful treasure of a woman. We are now young retirees living on a small private island without road access to the mainland. This is not necessarily because I wish to keep my wife in a safe place, but more so because we enjoy each others company so much that we decided to move away from the mainstream hustle-bustle of society. We sold our business to change our lifestyle to allow for more time together. This allows me to spend 24 hours per day with my wife who also happens to be my best buddy, 7 days per week, 12 months per year. As we evolve together, we find more and more happiness in our marriage. We have raised a child and have lived, worked and loved together with harmony and happiness for a long time and will continue to do so. I can speak from my own experience and perhaps help others understand what is necessary to find happiness with your spouse. Married life is a challenge for many, but should not be at all. It is a commitment that needs to be nurtured and consistently maintained, and there are ways to make this quite easy to do. I can answer questions in English and French.

Education/Credentials

Adequate Passing Grades from The School of Life for the last 50 years.

What do you like about this subject?

I like marriage because it seems to have become such a controversial subject and a concept so difficult to perfect for so many, yet at the same time the reality of its simplicity is often overlooked.

Hi Chris, I think that you are going about it the right way. I would simply ease into it and see how she feels about it, without necessarily sitting down to discuss it. There must be times where you
