The both of you love each other and have promised the dedicate each others lives to one another. Everything is great at first but then you move in with one another, you go through struggles with one another and things have changed and are not the same anymore. The divorce rate in America is high and every person knows at least one person who has gotten divorced. Getting a divorce is a fact of life now and people look at it as an easy way out of a difficult marriage. When it comes to creating a happy and healthy marriage it takes a lot of work. Here are some tips that you can use to help you create a better relationship with your partner.
When it comes to marriage one of the most important things to creating a healthy relationship is communication. Both of you need to communicate how you are feeling in a honest way. I know most men don't like to talk about feelings but it is extremely important that they do. Air any grievances and if there are some serious problems I recommend the both of you going to marriage counseling. Marriage counseling is a great way for the both of you to work out any problems. Your marriage counselor will become some what of a mediator and help the both of you work out your problems. A lot of couple don't think they need professional help but if the problems between the both of you have gotten really bad then I suggest seeing one.
Another tip to help create a more healthy marriage is set one night a week for date night. This will assure that there will be time you guys can spend together and talk about what's going on in each others lives. Also to help create a better relationship between you and your partner is to make sure that the both of you never go to bed angry. Make sure that if you're fighting at night you some how makeup and tell each other that you love them. If you go to sleep angry at your partner you will wake up in the morning still with the displeasure for your partner and this will only build up until you both explode.
Having a happy and healthy marriage takes work but it should be worth it as you both made a commitment to each that you will always be there for one another.
