Relationship & Marital Concerns

The idea of having a perfect marriage is always desired. However, it is not an easy task. It is common for married couples to have marital conflict. Handling a marriage and a family comes with its own set of challenges, and there are times when complications can arise in any given situation.

While every marriage is different, there are some common issues that couples may disagree on from time to time.

This includes:

• Unrealistic expectations of your partners: Doing house chores while having a job
• Issues with your partner’s spending habits: Spending too much on unnecessary items instead of important necessities. 
• Lack of personal boundaries: Invasion of privacy, no alone time. 

The issues mentioned above are only a few of the many that can place a strain on a marriage. The most important dynamic in a marriage is communication. Effective communication can improve intimacy while still sustaining goodwill and positive feelings. It has the ability to reduce tension, promote, and provide emotional protection in a marriage. Bad communication, on the other hand, can leave emotional scars that are difficult to repair. It can lead to misunderstandings, insecurity, fear, contempt, defensiveness, isolation, despair, and hopelessness, as well as the destruction of your marriage if given enough time and opportunity.

If you think your marriage is in trouble, do not wait. Seek assistance as soon as possible. Set a plan for both you and your partner. The longer you wait, the more difficult it will be to re-establish your relationship. As soon as warning signs appear, seek professional couples counselling so you can heal your relationship.
