We are Always fighting, why?

Image
You have come to find that whenever you are with your spouse, there is always something you are quarreling about. Sometimes the quarrels are so intense that you go for some period without talking to each other. Or perhaps you have even come to find that all the efforts you make in trying to resolve your differences always end up adding more complications. Where have you gone wrong? What is the best way forward? Where did you go wrong? First, if you are always fighting, there has to be a series of serious issues that you have not sorted out. This is characteristic of relationships and marriages where partners have a habit of postponing finding solutions to problems. Most of them think that by ignoring or just waiting for a later date to sort out a problem, things will sort themselves out. Things never sort themselves out. After some time, a small misunderstanding finally matures into a serious problem. Think about having suspicions that your mate is cheating on you, and you have some

What Role Does Religion Play in a Relationship?

Image
You might think religion has no effect on a marriage or a relationship. But that is a very serious mistake. Religion has its own way of influencing a marriage and it can not be ignored just like that. Many have tried to ignore it, but the consequences have been able to catch up with them. In some religions, your spouse will always be away from home on certain days and you will not fully understand why. But you have to live with it. The hard pill you need to swallow If you marry someone who does not share your faith, you can even agree to respect each other's beliefs. But think about what will happen during funerals: You will be forced to confront the realities of belonging to different faiths.

In other instances, your mate will just make serious decisions that will be in total disagreement with your conscience. Are you going to strongly oppose or swallow it? You will also be lonely whe

Never Underestimate the Power of Words in a Relationship

A man had taken his wife on a surprise dinner outing to a classic hotel. But whilst there, she accidentally tipped a bowl of soup which emptied its contents on his suit. In a fit of anger, he groaned, 'Are you such a careless fool, huh! Sometimes I wonder why I was so desperate as to end up with you!' She immediately left the hotel and that was the last he saw of her. Words can build a relationship or strengthen it. They can also be used to bless a king and most importantly we use them even to praise God. But the same words can tear lovers apart, and break a relationship; they can be used to insult a king and sin against God. The secret lies in how you use them. Put your tongue under control It is always important that before you utter a word, you think over it more than once. Others can even tell you that it is better to endure physical abuse than receive the pain of harsh words. To be successful, it is better to use the ratio 2:1 (Two to one). Listen twice as much as yo

How do You Handle Gossipers in Your Relationship?

Image
They talk about almost anything they suspect or know about you. Some of them even sacrifice their precious time. As long as you are still on this planet existing, people have to talk about you. The only difference is that some of them will foster negative gossip meant to attack your dignity and destroy your relationship. Why do they talk about you? The fact that you are still alive and existing where people can see you is enough for them to start talking about you. In fact even if you died today, they will still remain talking about you whenever they remember. But the other reason they may have is that you are prospering in one area or the other, and they seem to be failing to reach your level no matter how they try. They look at how your relationship has stabilised, but they cant figure out how you manage. However, some of them might have genuine concerns that highlight serious problems they have seen which you are not able to see. What is the best approach? People who talk abo
