Differences That
Spell Trouble
In his book, "Finding the Love of Your Life", Dr. Warren
writes, "If you and I had the time, we could tell one story
after another about couples who had some differences and
still built a satisfying marriage together." It is still
important to consider what differences could cause most
trouble in a marriage. Dr. Warren lists the following:
1)Energy Level--When one person has a lot of energy and the
other person has very little, we have the makings of major
problems.
2) Personal Habits--When two people differ here, there can
be a slow and steady erosion of their union. Some of the
habits that can create conflict include punctuality,
cleanliness, orderliness, dependability, responsibility and
weight management.
3) Use of Money--This is listed as the number one or two
reason why couples divorce. Money management should
definitely be discussed prior to marriage.
4) Verbal Skills and Interests--Having similar interests and
being able to share thoughts is very important for long-term
happiness.
Couples should take time to access these four areas while
they are dating; if not addressed, they can cause trouble
later in marriage.
What Are Your Instincts Telling You?
Is this relationship right for you? How can you tell?
Listen to your inner voice; it usually speaks the truth. If
you feel happy and confident most of the time, chances are
the relationship is working for you. If you constantly
feeling annoyed, depressed or put down, then itīs time to do
something about it. Talk to your partner, seek counseling or
move on. Remember, if you don't feel good about yourself in
the relationship, then the relationship isn't the one for
you.
Moving Beyond The Pain
We have all known someone who has been rejected by a
girl/boyfriend. (Heck, that someone could be you!) Rejection
is difficult to deal with, even more so for individuals who
grew up being rejected by family or friends. In order to
move past the pain, such individuals need to be around
people who build up their worth and are trustworthy. If you
or a friend are trying to deal with rejection, remember a
good support system is a good way to get over feelings of
rejection. Spend time that you would have normally spent
with your ex- with your friends. Start new routines. Try new
activities. Now is the perfect time to re-invent yourself!
You'll like the new you that arises from the ashes of your
old relationship.
Avoid Intentional Hurting
Breaking up is hard to do; the song doesn't lie. But if you
are the one initiating the break-up, there are some things
you can do (and not do) that can make the break-up as
painless as possible. First, remember your soon-to-be former
partner has given you a part of his or her life. Honor your
history together by not criticizing him or her at the
critical moment. In most instances, breaking up is your
issue, not theirs. If they ask you why you are breaking up
with them, be honest but tactful. If the shoe is on the
other foot and you are the one being let go, respect your
partner's decision. |
