How to have a good relationship with your spouse

It has been said often that 50 percent of all marriages in the United States end in divorce. Whether couples choose to believe this astronomical figure or not is another matter, given that this has been subject to debate. But one thing is for sure: there's no denying that divorce is prevalent in this country. This is why it is important for married couples to take steps in preventing this unfortunate end.

Communication is key
One of the things that becomes a source of problems for married couples is lack of communication. This is true especially of men, who are notorious for not expressing their feelings. A lot of arguments can be avoided simply by talking things out. Couples should be open to each other about the problems and difficulties they are encountering. They should start communicating before it reaches a critical point and becomes a full blown fight.

Don't neglect your spouse
Sometimes problems arise when one spouse feels invalidated. When a spouse feels that he or she is not getting enough attention from the other person, or that they are being taken for granted, this starts to take its toll on the relationship. Over time this unspoken problem will manifest itself putting a strain in that relationship.

Married couples need constant reassurance from each other. They should take the time to listen, and talk to each other. In order to have a healthy relationship, husbands and wives should make the effort to meet each other's emotional needs.

Do not wait until small issues become big problems

When a spouse expresses dissatisfaction over something, the other person should take the time to listen and address the problem whether it is the other person's behavior that is bothering them, lack of emotional support, or financial needs.

Issues that arise should not be ignored, because they will not go away! It is best to tackle these problems from the start, so couples can start working on a solution!

Married couples need to work on their marriage.
Entering into marriage is like signing a contract with another person that states that they are going to build a life together. This means that whatever problems and difficulties   come along, they both have to tackle and solve them together. Marriage is not a guarantee of a life of bliss. Remember that it is a constant work in progress.

It is important for married couples to get along with each other in order to have a successful marriage. This is why the couple should be willing to compromise and do their best to work out their differences.

Growing Old with Each Other

Marriage is a serious commitment between two individuals. That commitment should be remembered  no matter how long you have been together for a long time. It is a promise that the couple made in front of witnesses, not just on the wedding day but for the days and years beyond. It is a commitment that makes two people willing to grow old together no matter what the circumstances..  When two people are in a relationship, there are tantrums and petty fights that occur and such situations must be handled delicately until the matter has been laid to rest. Getting married will not make such negative situations go away.  Professionals are sometimes needed to keep the love alive. Marriage counselors do this by talking to the people involved by discussing the issues involved.  Once the causes of the disagreement have been determined, solutions are created with the help of the counselor. Constant follow-up must be done. One way of handling this is agreeing on a secret code that both have to
