Here are some reasons why your marriage might not be as happy as you want it to be......

1. Lack of respect for the other’s feelings: It is essential for the couple to develop regard for each other’s feelings. Each should consciously avoid making fun of the other, especially when others are around.

2. Lack of common interests: This is another problem experienced by many couples. Their background, temperament, tastes and mental out-look differ, and the result is the activity one is interested in, does not interest the other. Life will be definitely enjoyable if two people living together share some common interests. Common interests lead to looking forward together, better sharing of views and pleasurable communication.

3. Lack of recognition of the talents of the housewife: There are so many housewives who have tremendous talents in music, fine art, writing or speaking, but unable to find encouragement. Even if they can’t distinguish themselves as professional musician or artists, they want some kind of recognition in the area in which they have talents 

4. Personality clash : One factor that contributes to discord, disharmony and unhappiness is the conflict of personalities. These days husband and wife struggle to establish superiority over each other.

USEFUL TIPS TO IMPROVE MARITAL  RELATIONSHIP

1. See the abundance you enjoy: Take some time to assess how much of your mental energy is focused on what is missing in your partner.  

2. Give honest appreciation: Genuine and heartfelt appreciation plays a significant role in strengthening relationships. Make the other person feel important and do it sincerely.

3. Demonstrate your love : It is not enough if you love a person; but the other person should feel that you love him/her. Small gifts presented occasionally will help in demonstrating love and will make the other person feel that you care for him/her.

4. Be supportive and understanding : Be supportive and understanding when your spouse has a problem.

5. Feel the value of private time : "Silence is music" goes a saying. Being together does not mean that two people must be Always communicating or transacting. Husband and wives who allow private time for themselves to do things which they like, do enrich their lives.
