Getting Married? Good! You Need To Know Something Though...Your Fiancee...Well, They Are An Alien.


M Iarriage is a sacred and legal bond that makes up the backbone of America's family unit. In this book, Josh Tufte lays out how amazing AND challenging it is. Your Fiancee Is An Alien is meant to show you how different you and your spouse are and how you two can overcome those differences.

In my 33 years, I've been married for 14 of them. Since the age of 19, I have learned the hard way what works and what doesn't. Through countless hours of mentoring from great men and women, counseling, and attending the school of hard knocks, this book is what I wish I had when Heidi and I were getting married. It won't solve your problems. But it will give you a reasonable, realistic idea of what to expect and some practical, flexible, and applicable practices to help you work your way through the good times and the bad.

In this book, I cover some of the most problematic areas in nearly any marriage, like Time, Money, Sex, Religion, Children, and finally, Communication. My hope is that others can learn from our mistakes and hard-gained knowledge. My marriage is the largest source of joy in my life outside of my child, but sometimes hard-won. You won't find mystical principles or fluffy lies in this book. I'm honest and blunt.

Advice from a regular guy who has been married for over 14 years. It's simple and straight forward. Coming mid-2021, stay tuned for more information on this book.


 
S ometimes, life sucks. Not going to lie; you all know this anyway. Sometimes life is fantastic. Being married doesn't preclude you from these truths; it intensifies them.

What was annoying before becomes absolutely maddening, while what was fun and exciting becomes life-affirming.

The greatest thing about being married is also the worst. You have someone by your side at all times, if you want them there or not. It's both fantastic and awful, excellent and horrible, and it will drive you insane and make you the happiest person on the planet at the same time.

In this book, my goal is to cover several areas that both statistically and in my personal experience are the critical factors in either driving your spouse away or bringing you two together. Let me start by saying this, there will be no fluff in this. No fancy words to make you feel better or try and change your life in three steps. Being a good spouse is hard work, but it is worth it. This book is the culmination of what I have learned through hard knocks with Heidi and that I wished I knew before we got married. I designed it for engaged couples; I have a married couple's book in the works. Also, this is advice from a regular guy and gal to other ordinary guys and gals. No pretenses about how smart I am or that Heidi and I have a perfect marriage. I hope this book helps you and your spouse in your new life together!


You can be married, or you can be a couple...Focus on the latter of these two. Everyone focuses on this big wedding but pays very little attention to preparing for the rest of their lives together. It's a bit silly when you think about it. From now on, this person is going to be your other half, the yin to your yang, and you want to spend time only worrying about the wedding? Trust me, you will forget most of those details as the years pass. Focus on your future together more than the legal ceremony that starts it.
