We all know the typical marriage advice given to new couples- "Never stop dating." "Never go to bed angry." These are just two examples of the pieces of wonderful advice we've heard more times than we can count.

While these things are extremely important, there's other advice out there that can make your marriage awesome.

Here are 13 pieces of awesome marriage advice from real people:

1. Enjoy each other's company

"Silence is OK. You don't have to be talking to each other constantly to be comfortable. Just enjoy each other's company." - IanicRR

"My mother's philosophy is that my dad wears the pants, but she picks them out and matches the shirt and tie." - deleted

6. Separate spaces

"Have separate spaces. I don't mean sleep in different rooms, but maybe have an office, a craft room, a man cave or a garden. Something where you can be alone and do your own thing sometimes." - sjokitten

7. This is adorable

"Not really advice we got, but advice we give: Every morning, we take our wedding rings and put them on each other's finger. We get married all over again, every morning." - DragonMoose

8. Always say it

"Always say I love you, if you're at that point. Even if you have a fight, just say it. Say it before you go to bed, even if you're deciding to sleep off the anger. Life changes in a second, and you don't want the last thing you said to be something of hate." - deleted
