The impact of these stresses can be quite devastating for the survival of a marriage. So, it’s very important that you don’t allow these pressures to get to you and lose track of the basic love that binds you together.

It is necessary that you deal with stressful situations together by opening up communication channels.

You need to really listen to what your partner is talking about and try and meet each others’ needs.

There are times when you need to be supportive to each other, encourage and uplift each others’ spirits. Remember – marriages are about dealing with issues together and you too can chase the blues away by doing things together.
