Pre Marriage Questions
So you think you have found "the one". You have decided to get married. But have you looked at any pre marriage questions? You know, the tough ones like, which way should the toilet paper roll go on?
In all seriousness, you and your partner owe it to yourselves to take a long hard look at some pre marriage questions. Why do marriages fail? I feel it is that we marry a partner that we are not compatible with. We meet someone, are infatuated for a while and the next logical step is to get married, whether or not we are even compatible with this person. We end up getting married because we feel it is what's expected of us. Hmmm, I am just not sure about this.
Marriage Relationship Building
What a lot of couples, especially young couples, fail to realize is that is a lot of marriage relationship building that has to take place after you say your I Do's. So many couples(maybe more men than women) think that after they get married there is nothing left to do to build or strengthen the marriage. Nothing could be further from the truth.You have to work as a team. You have to honor and trust your partner. You have to make time for one another. Share your thoughts and dreams and ideas. This is just a start. But what precludes this is actually being with a partner with whom you have some things in common. You have a level of compatibility. If this does not exist you may be in looking at experiencing loneliness in marriage.
Loneliness In Marriage
Answering some pre marriage questions will hopefully help you and your partner from experiencing any level of loneliness in marriage. I see it in a lot of couple. They each do there own thing. They do not spend much time together and have very little in common. Before you know it someone comes out with, "You've changed", or, "I don't know you anymore".If you are talking to someone else more often about your relationship, than you talk to your spouse, it could be a sign of trouble.
