One of the most important lessons to be learnt after getting married is to prioritise things. You need to decide for yourself what is more important to you. Family interference, especially in the Indian set up, work pressures and just the usual stress can take a toll on your married life. Prioritising your life right from the beginning will make it easier for the two of you in the long run. Making efforts to take some time out for your spouse, respecting their opinion above the others and spending some quality time together every day will make your bond stronger.

#5. Not much changes in your life after you get married
