Reasons why people marry?

Marriage is a very essential part of human life because marriage is a great institution made by God. Marriage gives a reason to spend life with love and relationship.

There is the following reason which helps you to figure out why marriage is important and why people marry:

Social security:

Only marriage can provide you social security and validate your love and relationship with your partner. Marriage gives you the freedom to live with your partner happy.

Get respect from society:

If you are married your relationship gets respect in society otherwise without marriage society does not give respect to your love.

Provide support and growth:

As we know a human is a social animal, we can’t live alone or out of society. These people get married and support each other, physically, mentally, and financially.

Life is not a cup of cake it is full of many ups and downs. For this, you always need the support of your partner.

Understand the value of sacrifice and commitment:

If you really love someone you will do anything to make your partner happy. Without any doubt will be ready for any sacrifice and commitment.

Provide stability:

Marriage provides stability in your life, without marriage it is very difficult to be stable, your mind is diverting you in different ways and you are not much focused on your goal and life.

A married person is calmer and motivated in comparison to an unmarried person. So this shows how marriage life is important for getting success in your life.

Provides you a better chance to understand your love: marriage gives you a better way of understanding your love. When you're married, usually, you deeply understand your partner’s feelings and emotions.

What does marriage mean to you?

There is not a perfect answer to this question because it’s a general question. Its answer is different from person to person based on their expectations and experiences.

Most people consider it just a matter of living with another person, whom you share all your things like your feelings, happiness, sorrow, and everything else. 

Some may be considering marriage is a very beautiful part of life, for some, it’s a way of overcoming separateness.

For many people marriage is just like a commitment with another person, to support them and make a healthy life long relationship.

What are the 10 most important things in a marriage?

Trust and Honesty:

It’s the primary need of every marriage that you trust in your partner. Without trust and honesty, there is no means of any relationship or marriage.

Communication:

Communication is key to your successful relationship. Without communication no relationship can survive, the better you communicate with your partner, your chances of a successful marriage are higher.

Respect:

This is also one of the most important things in a marriage or any relationship if you respect the feeling and thoughts of your partner, then definitely your partner will also respect you.

Commitment and hard work:

Commitment and hard work are the backbones of your marriage. If you are not committed to your partner, you never love them truly. If you make any commitment with your partner make sure anyhow you have to do it with hard work.

Love:

Without love in your marriage, your relationship feels boring. So it’s your duty to deeply love your partner and share all types of emotions between us.

Quality time:

Quality time is a need for your marriage. If you really want to look at your partner happy, whenever possible, you spend quality time with them.

Acceptance and forgiveness:

If you really love your partner, you have to accept them completely with their good or bad.

These things make a big change in your marriage. If sometimes your partner doing any mistake you have to forgive them.

Unconditional support:

In this world, only your partner loves you most, so it’s your responsibility you also love and support them unconditionally.

Appreciation:

If you will really want to succeed in your marriage, always appreciate your partner for their good work. This small thing makes a big impact on your partner’s personality.

Common Marriage Problems

No doubt marriage is the greatest gift of God. It is a very sweet part of life. Marriage is connected to both of you with fun, happiness, and romance but also connected to you with a lot of responsibilities and challenges.

Now I am describing major common problems faced by married couples nowadays:

Lack of communication:

This is the most common problem faced by married couples. If they have any problem they do not feel comfortable sharing it with their partner because they have a fear in mind if they speak their problem to them maybe their relationship harm.

Financial issues:

Financial issues greatly impact your marriage even if you madly love each other. This is the main reason for fighting and splitting up.

Romance fading away:

In the beginning stage of marriage, couples are very passionate about love and romance, but later they lose the feeling of love and no romance is remaining between us.

Intimacy issues:

Everyone wants to be intimate with their partner but what happens if you facing a lot of problems with intimacy.

Many people are faced with a lot of problems while having intimate with their partner, mentally and psychologically, they are not ready to be intimate.

Sexual issues:

More than 50% of couples are facing this type of issue. Their body hormones do not work properly and this thing greatly affected their marriage life.

Stress:

It is the most common problem nowadays. Couples face stress in their relationship because of office work and outer activities they can’t focus on their partner. This all leads to stress and also impacted health.

Overuse of technology and social media:

The use of technology and social media leads couples away from the real feeling of love. People are more practical nowadays they are busier on mobile and have no time to talk personally and face to face each other.

Anger issues:

Because of stress and work pressure, people are not calm and happy, soon they lose patience and get irritated about small things.

Anger really spoils your married life if you do not control it at the right time.

Selfish behavior or self-expectations:

It is not a big issue but sometimes it creates a lot of problems in marriage life. Selfish behavior seriously hurts your partner.

Childcare issues:

As parents have full responsibility for their children, parents are not giving too much time to their children because of work pressure and other things. This really impacts the relationship between children and parents.

What are the signs of a toxic marriage?

A successful marriage requires a lot of effort and commitment, along with trust and love but what happens if you are not feeling happy from your marriage life.

Here are some reasons which indicate that your marriage may be toxic:

Abuse:

Abuse not only affects your marriage life but also hurts you mentally or physically. If your partner is consistently abusing you, it simply means your marriage life is in toxic mode.

Infidelity:

If your partner is repeatedly cheating you and lying to you about their affairs and disrespecting your marriage life.

Drug addiction:

If your partner is drug-addicted and incapable of taking responsibility. Always hyper on you without any cause. This is a very critical situation for you.

Trying to control your life:

If your partner always trying to control you and doubt your character. This situation shows a lack of trust in your marriage life.

Avoid you and talking with disrespect:

If your partner avoids you publically and talks with disrespect, it shows your marriage life is suffering hard.

Always fighting:

If you're always fighting with each other on small things, this really puts your marriage life in danger.

Why do people cheat?

Instant gratification:

When people are habitual of instant gratification, they don’t care about anything. They only care about the selfish goal, when they achieve their task, they didn’t care about other people.

Lack of trust:

Sometimes people come to you and try to show that they love you but later after creating a relationship with you they fade away. They do all these things to take revenge on you.

Love is fading out:

When a person realizes that is no love left between them, they try to keep away.

How to spice up your marriage?

You have to try new things with your partner not only inside but also outside. Try to cook food together and share your thoughts about how they feel about them.

Don’t hesitate to flirt in public:

After some time of marriage, couples forget about flirting. So if you really want to spice up your life, restart flirting with your partner in public and surprise them. Offer kisses and hugs to your partner.

Holding hands:

Whenever you go out, try to hold the hand of your partner, this type of physical touch really good place to boost your relationship.
