Perhaps this may explain a thing or two.
Husband Store A store that sells new husbands has opened in Toronto, where a woman may go to choose a husband. Among the instructions at the entrance is a description of how the store operates: You may visit this store ONLY ONCE! There are six floors and the value of the products increase as the shopper ascends the flights. The shopper may choose any item from a particular floor, or may choose to go up to the next floor, but you cannot go back down except to exit the building! So, a woman goes to the Husband Store to find a husband. On the first floor the sign on the door reads: Floor 1 - These men have jobs. She is intrigued, but continues to the second floor, where the sign reads: Floor 2 - These men have jobs and love children. 'That's nice,' she thinks, 'but I want more,' so she continues upward. The third floor sign reads: Floor 3 - These men have jobs, love children, and are extremely good looking. 'Wow,' she thinks, but feels compelled to keep going. She goes to the fourth floor and the sign reads: Floor 4 - These men have jobs, love children, are drop-dead good looking and help with the housework. 'Oh, mercy me!' she exclaims, 'I can hardly stand it!' Still, she goes to the fifth floor and the sign reads: Floor 5 - These men have jobs, love children, are drop-dead good looking and help with the housework, and have a strong romantic streak. She is so tempted to stay, but she goes to the sixth floor, where the sign reads: Floor 6 - You are visitor 31,456,012 to this floor. There are no men on this floor. This floor exists solely as proof that women are impossible to please. Thank you for shopping at the Husband Store. PLEASE NOTE: To avoid gender bias charges, the store's owner opened a New Wives store just across the street. The first floor has wives that love sex. The second floor has wives that love sex, have money and like beer. The third, fourth, fifth and sixth floors have never been visited.

There is probably no "process". It's always a work in progress.

My ex husband hated going shopping with me. He would bring a book and sit somewhere while I meandered around (quickly, though; he really took the pleasure of window-shopping away).
Respect him. (You are with him. You should.) Have knowledge of what causes his happiness (or unhappiness). Responsibility Take careful care of your part in the relationship.
And the one that gives me the most trouble ... Be aware of your finances and don't spend over what you two have decided is the limit. If you are married, be sure that you have the ability to make your own money. He'll appreciate that in you. I think it's best if you can stay home with your kids but that's just my idea. That doesn't work out all the time. Forge the way for a good marriage.
His family should just love you. (Oh, hard one sometimes! Just do it)
