Human beings are social animals and crave companionship. After a
person meets the basic necessities like food, clothing and shelter, he
seeks a a significant other to share his life's journey. It is important
that we save relationships that foster goodwill, not only within the
family but also in the community. High on the list is saving marriage
from divorce.
• Marriage is an institution that sanctifies and legalizes a woman and man living together. This has been a socially acceptable form of cohabitation for centuries in most parts of the world. In today's hi-tech world with new morals being accepted having an accent on personal freedom and privacy, traditional marriage is facing a challenge.
• Marriage offers emotional security and physical intimacy to both husband and wife. It is very natural for couples to have differences of opinion, but they should learn to agreeably disagree rather than break up. More often than not it is a clash of egos that ends a relationship. It is, therefore, essential that steps are taken at once to save marriage from divorce.
• Marriages change over time. It is pertinent to remember that what drew two people together will not help in keeping them together. As a relationship changes over time, partners' priorities shift. At first the man and woman spend time trying to impress one another other. Once they marry, the vagaries of home life dominate and romance takes a back seat. Women often being more emotional tend to feel a bit neglected by their partner who spends more time working to be a better provider. After the family includes children, much of a woman's time is spent taking care of them and she struggles to divide her time between being a wife and mother and work outside the home. The man probably feels neglected at this point. It is, therefore, important for both man and woman regularly to communicate frankly and work out a plan that will enable them to save marriage from divorce.
• Marriages require certain elements. Mutual trust, faith, love, respect and understanding are essential for marriage or any other relationship to survive and thrive. People make mistakes. Sometimes some unintentional remarks uttered on the spur of the moment can cause anger and resentment. If a spouse is cheating, if he/she is being indifferent or if the spouse feels he/she is not paying as much attention it is necessary for them to discuss the issues. This will help save relationships
• Marriages can weather storms. Matters can be sorted through dialogue and discussion. When two people have decided to live together for the rest of their lives, there is common ground. Couples should spend quality time alone at least once a week. Spending time together will encourage them to have an overall perspective and help them rekindle the romance in their lives. One of the partners should take the initiative and break the ice or they should take the help of a counselor like the pastor of the local church or a marriage counselor to sort out the contentious issues.
If even one of the partners is willing, there are a lot of resources available like self-help books, DIY videos and marital therapists who can help save marriage from divorce.
