How to Save Your Marriage And Be Happy In Your Relationship

103 17
When you are married to someone, it is very important that the two of you learn to communicate with one another effectively.
This is one of the main causes for divorce.
It is extremely important that the two of you keep the communication channels open by talking to each other thereby meeting one another's needs.
If you choose to ignore your partner and not communicate effectively with them when they have a need or a desire, you greatly reduce your chance to save your marriage.
Listening with an open mind your spouse's frustrations is a step in the right direction toward a happy marriage.
It is never a good idea to assume that your partner is wrong all this time but instead be as objective as possible and try looking at issues from their view point.
Anything less will result in more problems in your relationship.
In viewing matters objectively, it may be worth taking a look in the mirror and telling yourself that you could quite possibly be the problem here.
Silence in marriage is another silent killer that steals its happiness.
If you choose to be silent in a bid to avoid confrontation, it is important that you understand that you are going to blow your top sooner or later.
Instead of this, sit down with your partner and gently discuss the situation.
Let them know if they are doing something that makes you sad.
This is going to do you a lot more good than to bottle up your frustrations and grievances.
Let them know what it is they do that makes you sad.
Even though communication is an important key to a happy marriage it is important that you reassure your partner that you love them very much and that the relationship is important to you.
Make it a point to demonstrate your love to your partner on a daily basis.
It is the little things that you do to show you care that will make the difference.
Also take the time to appreciate your spouse's loving gestures towards you without ridiculing their efforts.
In communicating with your spouse try to share in each other's daily experiences for example, enquire how their days at work have been.
And show your interest by engaging them in conversation, just like you would do with your other friends.
Of course you want to be sensitive to their moods so as to strike the right balance.
Try as much as possible to resolve issues fully and completely between you, such that once this state has been attained, you have to make a decision to leave it in the past.
Don't get into the habit of bringing up issues from the past.
Of course some past issues do really hurt and I understand why people go down this route.
But it is counter-productive to a happy marriage.
Recognise that your marriage like every other marriage and every other relationship goes through the same ups and downs.
Following the guidelines recommended above will lay the foundations for a happy marriage and you will be well on your way to save your marriage.
