What's the most important thing in your marriage?

My wife and children!!

See Korvo One's answer and add grandchildren to that.

Staying committed and faithful.

Jan I like the answers so far but my answer would be Christ in the center.

Right now? The lack of it.

Love, respect, trust and commitment.

Fundamentally, respect and laughter. The love we share comes from the first, what keeps that love is our shared laughter.

I've had to ban that man to our living room because I'm afraid he will bust my abdominal stitches. I just look at him with his goofy face and I am holding my stomach begging him to stop. That laughter has gotten us through some of the worst moments of our lives. Without it we'd be divorced.

My ability, most of the time, to ignore the fact that it happened.....

When I was married the most important thing for us was that we made each other laugh everyday and we were each other's best friend ...and we just made sence together. That and great sex :p ....and the fact that no matter what we fought about we never went to sleep before he told me I was right.....cos I said so ;)

Chocolate cake and dougnuts, the true foundation of a real marriage.

Loving---as in the  act of loving.  As in care, respect, responsibility, and knowledge.

And the better you get at loving in marriage, the better you become at loving in general in all your relationships.

It's why some of call it a "vocation."

As for Christ, marriage is meant to be a reflection of the relationship between Christ and His church, so to me He is always involved.
