How to Keep Your Marriage Strong Beyond the Newlywed Phase

We all fall in love and marry with the best intentions. This is particularly evident in those cherished early days when merely seeing one another can be euphoric. But relationships always come with challenges. There is no way to avoid it.

If you really want to keep the marriage strong, partners have to support each other. Even if the shine has varnished as it would on your diamond engagement ring with time, you just need to polish it once again.

Below are some tips that will strengthen a relationship:

Learn to be patient

 

The more time you spend with a person, the easier it is to get frustrated by even the most minor quirks. It's easier said than done, but we need to remember this is someone we love and want to be with. If we give it thought, the small stuff shouldn't come between us

Remember ... you're in love

 

After the wondrous build up to it, we tend to settle into married life. We'll turn our focus to careers, children, the mortgage and forget a relationship needs constant nurturing. Put as much effort into your spouse as you did when you were dating. You'll find it's not as hard as you think once you see your efforts reflected in their eyes

Why do we have to be right?

 

During the first year of marriage, which is usually pure bliss, couples may begin to find conflict in almost anything. This can be the result of realizing compromise is a personal struggle that we're not used to. Try to find ways to communicate without getting heated. At the end of any disagreement, try to understand the other's intent and do not have conversations that just go in circles

Think partner first

 

This is a tough one. It can be hard to put someone else before yourself, but this is a critical component to a healthy relationship same as your precious diamond engagement ring is an important part of your proposal. If your partner does not believe you are fully committed to their best interests, the relationship will always be lacking. We're not saying give up what gives you pleasure, but don't necessarily dismiss theirs

Be grateful for your partner
