A happy marriage can be a bit hard to find now a days. But, it doesn't have to be that way. There are many ways to make sure you remain as much in love with your spouse as when you first got married.
Here are some of the suggestions for the happy marriage.
Spend quality time together. Once a week, at least, do something a couple. Take a walk ihn the park, play a game of cards, see a movie or go for a dinner. Just spent some quality time with just the two of you, and get to know each other all over again.
Spend some time apart. Taking time for yourself to do the things that interest you will make you happier and more fulfilled, therefore, making you easier to live with and more interesting to your spouse.
Don't fight in front of other people. It embarrasses you both and undermines your relationship. It also may prevent you from being completely honest.
Listen attentively to each other. Ask about your spouse's day, and listen to the answers. Ask how your spouse feels, and tell him/her how you feel. Respect each other's comments. Make sure you understand what is being said by clarifying statements.
Don't insult or make fun of your spouse's relatives or friends. Even if it's just in fun, these comments can hurt your spouse and your relationship.
Don't go to bed angry. Sort out the issues before you go to bed.
Give your spouse the benefit of doubt.
Having a great marriage take work from beginning to end. When the effort ends, the marriage might also. However, by following the above steps, the marriage has a much greater chance of success.
