Here are a few rules for a happy married life:

1. Remember marriage is a 100 percent proposition. Go all out to make each other happy.

2. Don't nag or indulge in fault-finding.

3. Never yell or shout at each other unless the house is on fire.

4. Never bring up the mistakes of the past.

5. Settle all differences before the sun goes down.
