tackle those marriage blues

Have you tied the wedding knot recently? Do you find yourself caught up in an emotional trauma? Does reality seem to hit you that married life is not after all that puppy love that you assumed it to be? Well you are sailing in the same boat as many newly-wed couples. Before you conclude anything by just stepping into the water you ought to swim and experience the depth and wonders of this mighty ocean of marriage.

Cosmos conspires to drive you only towards the positive side of things.Yet many of you would be beset with the notion that fate has played cruel games only with you and not with any other soul . So firstly, accept the fact that no marriage is devoid of problems. It is just that one should be given the time and space to accept a total stranger for life-time. Remember, your partner also deserves the same. If you end up with a difference of opinion which could by all means lead to a feud, there are ways to tackle it. Try to put forth your view in a subtle and polite manner. Never , vent out your anger or even show the slightest presence of it.If you lose in the argument ,accept your partner’s views open heartedly. Never hesitate to apologize even if you weren’t wrong.Lastly,never get dejected over silly quarrels and instead spend some time and think about the happy moments you have shared. A flip through your wedding or honey-moon photographs could revive you.

Certain minute gestures and actions could go a long way to build a fruitful relationship. Try to gauge the likes and dislikes of your partner. Never forget to commemorate occasions like birthdays and anniversaries. At this point I would like to make something very clear. There maybe few who would argue saying that a failure to wish or gift on such occasions is not necessarily an indication of lack of love. Yes, definitely it is not , but the happiness of being remembered is far fetched than the ignominy of being forgotten.

Try and reciprocate as much as possible. For eg: if your partner agrees to come with you to a movie he/she least likes, it automatically follows that he/she would expect you also to accept some of her likes which might not be your cup of tea. Please make a note, women normally expect this kind of behavior from their hubbies but very few of them really care to do it.

Its high time you realize that marriage doesn’t require two people who are naturally compatible. All it needs is just a little bit of thought process and reasoning time and again to cement the relationship.
