What
Are The 7 Signs of Marriage Trouble?
The good news about marriage today is that
divorce rates are down. The bad news is that an increasing
number of marriages are unhappy. Couples endure an unhappy
marriage for a number of reasons but excuses usually include
the children or they just hate to admit defeat.
Marriages rarely die an immediate death. It’s like the guy
in a movie who’s shot several times but refuses to die. He
stumbles and falls half a dozen times and just when you think
he’s fallen for the last time, he gets up again and reaches
out for help.
Many times this describes an unhappy marriage that hurts the
husband and wife while they stumble and fall back but manage
to hang on for one reason or another refusing to give up.
Divorce sometimes is a better alternative but only you and
your spouse can determine that. If getting a divorce is the
decision, the sooner you deal with it the better you’ll become
more emotionally stable and able to cope with the situation.
Divorces can be devastating on the entire family, especially
if you let them linger before reaching an amiable breakup.
There
are signs of trouble in marriage and they’re easier to
resolve if you spot them early on. Small problems turn into
big ones if you let your emotions get out of control. You may
have seen some of these signs of trouble before the marriage
but didn’t view them as problems. Why? There is more truth
than not in the old saying that love is blind.
You may have married in spite of your better judgment and
hoped your partner would change or thought you could work your
magic charm and change your spouse. This rarely happens. So,
what are some of the signs of a troubled marriage?
1.
You no longer have fun with each other. No matter what
you do, you wish you would have stayed at home and both of
you are miserable.
2.
Compliments are rare or non existent. Neither of you say
anything nice about the other. On the contrary, criticisms
are on the increase. You can’t do anything right and become
afraid to do anything and withdraw.
3.
You’re happier when your spouse is gone. The only time
you can relax is when he or she is not at home and you can
enjoy being yourself.
4.
Neatness could be a problem if the other is a slob or a
person who clutters and never puts anything away. One is always
picking up behind the other.
5.
One tries to save and the other spends money frivolously. This can be a major problem if bills go unpaid.
6.
A lack of intimacy or sexual activity is a classic example
of a lack of love in a marriage. It could also indicate that
one or both of you are involved in an affair.
7.
You on longer can agree on future goals and refuse to discuss
anything beyond tomorrow.
Either accept these qualities in your partner or seek professional
help. Qualified help can be found in person, in books or online.
The sooner you seek help the better. Marriage problems can
cause depression and anger affecting the entire family. Watch
for these signs of a troubled marriage and resolve to take
action.
