6 Important Ingredients For A Happy Marriage

Marriage is not a simple thing. It is not something you can break free from when you get bored, to get some time for you only. Marriage means a lot of sacrifices, dedication, compromise, and love. And what is most important is that it is not only about you. You need to think about your partner’s feelings as well and do everything in your power to make them happy because you promised to be together for better or for worse.

I know that sometimes things change just like people do and it is not always possible to keep a marriage happy. That’s why we have done our best to make a list of the most important things that you should do to make your marriage perfect like it was on the first day!

1. Mutual understanding

Trust me, there is no moving ahead without mutual understanding. You need to understand that there will be bad days, that your partner might feel down on some days but that doesn’t mean he doesn’t love you anymore. Also, things like this can differ with each personality type, so it depends on whether you are an alpha or a beta, for example. Some people will overcome marriage problems much faster and some will stick to the same problem and keep mentioning it over and over again. But if you understand each other and if you are ready to compromise, every problem can be solved.

2. Support

When you get married, you want your partner to be your support, the shoulder you can lean on and your best friend. And that is what you should get. You don’t need a man who will mess with your plans, who will suffocate you or keep you away from the people you love. You need a man who will support every decision you make because he knows you did your best to make them. He won’t make things harder and he will be there for you, for anything you need. A real man will love you just the way you are and he will never take you for granted.

3. Love

The most important ingredient for a happy marriage is surely loving. If there is no love, there is nothing. So, if you don’t feel loved and appreciated, don’t just stay with a man like that because of the kids or because of what people might say. Never settle for less than you deserve and always strive for perfection. Because perfection exists if people try over and over again, if they don’t get stuck in a routine and if they want to make their partner happy. If you see signs that your husband doesn’t love you, do something about it. Ask for love even if you are 70 years old, not because you need it but because you deserve it!

4. Forgiveness

It is inevitable that your partner will make some mistakes but you need to talk to him about why he did something and try to solve the problem. The easiest thing is to walk away but that doesn’t solve anything. When you are in love, it is very hard when your partner does something that makes you feel bad but that is all part of marriage. The best way to have a healthy and stable relationship is by talking over problems and making a deal about what is tolerable in your marriage.

5. Spending Time Together

Your marriage won’t function if you don’t spend enough time with your spouse. If you always go out with your friends and he does the same with his, that will only create a rift between the two of you. I am not saying that you should be together all the time because having your free time is essential but you should make a healthy balance between your friends and your spouse. If you enjoy being with your friends more than being around him, then I don’t know if you are living in a happy marriage. On the other hand, if you plan trips and events only for the two of you, it can help you make a deeper emotional bond with your spouse.

6. Empathy

When you love someone, you need to feel some empathy toward them. You can’t just think about your needs only because marriage is a two-way street. Only narcissistic people don’t think about their partner and do make them feel bad. And when you love someone, you don’t want them to feel like crap. You want them to be the happiest person alive when they are with you, right? And if they do the same for you, it is a sign that you are in a happy marriage.
