Secret of a Long-Lasting Happy Marriage<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Treat your in-laws with respect, give your spouse breathing space and keep the spark alive to build a rock-solid relationship Nowadays, the term \u2018long-lasting marriage\u2019 is an oxymoron. With divorce rates rising, separation has become the easiest solution to tackle any rocky relationship! No wonder, fewer couples are giving their marriage a deserving second chance.<\/p><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Like any other relationship, even a marriage needs help, every now and then, especially when things get difficult. True, it may be challenging and require more effort on your part but the rewards are worth the extra work. So instead of ignoring and brushing your marital woes under the carpet, make your marriage a happy and long-lasting affair.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Big Communication<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

If communication is missing in your marriage, before you even realise it, it will slowly destroy your relationship. Everyone talks about honesty in a marriage but that\u2019s only possible if communication lines are open. So even if you\u2019re busy with your work, children, gym, household chores or social activities, just set aside 15 minutes in the day, especially for your spouse. Use this precious time to sit and talk about things \u2014 not just about work and family but even anything random.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dignity and respect<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cLove is overrated \u2014 it\u2019s respecting your spouse and giving him dignity that will strengthen your bond and help your relationship in the long run,\u201d says Seema Hingorrany, clinical psychologist. You may be married to him and he may be an integral part of your life, but that doesn\u2019t mean you own him. It\u2019s important you don\u2019t dominate or boss him around, alone or in front of family and friends. Learn to respect his feelings and decisions, even if you don\u2019t agree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s okay to compromise<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Maybe it\u2019s the way we\u2019ve been conditioned, but a lot of people feel that compromise is a sign of weakness and so, are often unwilling to compromise. But considering the vast number of decisions every couple has to make during the course of their lives, you\u2019ll often come across situations, where you will have to find middle ground. That doesn\u2019t mean you always have to give up on what you believe or think is right. Make it more about reaching a consensus or solution that both of you will be happy with.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Transparency about finances<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Every individual is entitled to financial stability, so it\u2019s completely fine if you have a separate bank account, where you save up money. But it\u2019s equally important that your spouse is aware of your finances too. Whether it\u2019s investing in a new policy or loaning money to a friend or family member, it\u2019s best to keep your husband in the loop. You don\u2019t want this indiscretion to upset him, make him lose his trust on you or unnecessarily create a rift in the relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bonding with your in-laws<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Well, this one is easier said than done, particularly if you aren\u2019t too fond of your spouse\u2019s extended family or vice versa! Still, what matters is that you at least make an attempt to be cordial to them, or engage in polite conversation, whenever you meet. You could also initiate get-togethers or dinners once in a while. After all, if there\u2019s a strain in your relationship with your better half, your in-laws could be a great source of support for both of you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t let the romance die<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As clich\u00e9d as it sounds, no matter how many years you\u2019ve been married, keeping the fire embers burning bright is important in your relationship. Says Dr. Sanjoy Mukerji, marriage counsellor, \u201cGive appreciation, attention and quality time to your partner, whenever genuinely possible. Make him feel special.\u201d If you have children, send them to their grandparents and go out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
