Plenty of marriages fail because there is someone who is not happy.
Marriages don't have to be boring, but when you are in the same routine over, and over, and over again it does get boring. This is why some people are unhappy, there is no excitement in their marriage. Even the happiest couples are really hiding the fact that they are a little unhappy with how their marriage turned out. Sometimes being in a routine, and never doing anything new can seriously affect someone's outlook on marriage.
The way to solve this is too bring up the fact that your unhappy! Once again communication!
Talking to your spouse about being unhappy can change the situation in so many ways. When you admit to not being happy, it could hurt your partner but you need to make sure YOU are okay as well
Another way to solve this issue is to recognize that you are in a boring routine, and figure out ways to solve it. Go on a vacation, or travel the world together. Let the kids go ahead and stay with the grandparents and have a stayacation in the living room! There is so many ways to make your partner happy again, and it all comes down too communicating your unhappy.
I understand a lot of marriages do come to an end because they aren't happy anymore, but there is so many ways to fix that problem. It really is not that hard to realize that you can change your marriage by working things out and trying to keep finding out ways to love your partner, and also your marriage. If you don't love your marriage, who will?

I'm not quite sure how you are using the hyperlink to the Daily Mail article. Where are you borrowing/referencing content from that link into your text? Remember that with academic documentation standards, you'll have to go above and beyond to show exactly where who said what. What's the author of that article's name, for example?
ReplyDeleteI wonder--do you think that marriage counseling would have helped your parents stay together? Would having more quite time together have fixed it? Or can it be incompatibility or some other outside factor?
