This may be a bit controversial, but it's very difficult for a man or a woman to be a good husband or wife if they have not had it modeled before them. What makes it even more difficult is when that husband or wife is not willing to learn how to be a good husband or wife. Growing up in a two parent household does not guarantee that a person has seen or learned how to be the spouse that God wants them to be. Don't let pride ruin your marriage. If you're struggling, sign up for marriage counseling or a couple's class to work on the areas of deficiency. If your mate won't go, go by yourself. You'll still learn some things that may help you deal with your personal issues and you'll be given some tools to help you manage how you deal with your spouse. Just as it is with anything else, you have to be willing to work on it in order to make it right. Even if it doesn't work out in the end, make sure you've done your part. God bless!
