When we get married, let’s say the average age is 25, we have already spent 25 years with our parents. We’ve lived a certain way and there’s a certain system in the house. But suddenly we are in a new home, and we expect our spouses to follow the same system that we were used to, behaving the same way that we saw our parents behave with each other. That expectation is impossible because 25 years is a long time to create a culture, and it’s unfair to expect our spouses to adapt to us within 6 months to a year of marriage.
O Allah make us see the beauty of our spouses so that we are blinded to their imperfections, and blinded to the beauty of other people (so that we don’t compare our spouses).

Am I cute? No. But do I have a nice personality? Also no
