Tips For A Great Marriage

By Alida Stadtmiller


Getting married can be a fantastic time in a couples life. It's when you decide that you want to spend the rest of your life with that person.

An accurate statistic shows that over half of married couples are now getting a divorce within their first year of marriage. I'm now going to give you some tips so hopefully you're not one of these couples.

The first major point to remember is actually before you get married. Make sure that you're not just doing it to make the other person happy. Only get married if it's what you really want.

A marriage is all about communicating with each other. If you're going to spend the rest of your lives with each other then you need to make sure that you can communicate.

Another important factor about having a lasting marriage is that you need to have respect for each other right from the start. Respect is one of the most important thing in a relationship let alone a marriage.

If one of you doesn't respect the other then the relationship is doomed to fail sooner or later.

Another really important factor about marriage is rules. It's important that you both have boundaries and realise that what you now do affects your partner as well. So do not do anything that's going to break these boundaries and disrespect your partner.

One thing that a lot of married couples find is that their partner seems to change when they get married. It seems as if their partner lets themselves go abit.

An example of this is that before the marriage the partner would dress nice and keep fit to try to impress their partner. But now they're married they let themselves go because they feel they do not need to impress the other person any more because they've got a partner for life. This can annoy the other person in the marriage.

A good piece of advice is to try to be the same person you were before your wedding. Do not try to change too much from the person your partner married.
