discuss What's the Secret to a Happy and Healthy Marriage?

[1stop]

It's crucial to build a healthy relationship but it's pity that so many people find it so hard in understanding how to navigate this. What do you think is the way out. Is it communication or trust or maybe something different? Let's discuss about it.

In most case, money is the main reason for happy and healthy relationship. If you have scarcity of money in your life, your life is not healthy and happy. If you have to compromise a lot of things because of lack of money your relationship will get sour.

I don't entirely agree. There is no doubt that money will make things easier and give some measure of comfort but it will not guarantee happiness to marriage.

Let's not become idealist, and talk about reality. No, woman will be happy if there is lack of money in the family, and no man will be happy if he does not have money. Everything we need for happiness require money.

Some people have been broken before, and if that's the case, being open about everything.

You could, say, tell your significant other that you're going to the gym, but come home and they ask you where you went, and you tell them, "The gym."

But, you leave out what you think might be insignificant stuff from that answer. Like, yes, you did go to the gym. However, on the way to the gym you stopped by a convenience store and got in a quick meal, met an old gym buddy on the way out of the gym and caught up, then had to wait 20 minutes for the treadmill.

Your 4 hour trip to the gym now sounds reasonable, but if you leave it at "I went to the gym" and were gone 4 hours, it could leave major questions in your partner's head.

Then, you do the same thing when you go out for groceries, but you don't tell them that you also stopped for gas, filled up your tires, and washed the car on the way, which doesn't account for a lot of time missing either.

These things can pile up.

So, I'd be open in the beginning from A to Z so they know your routine, then they can trust you later on when you say "I went to the gym (for 4 hours)".

Don't ever, for once, take that trust for granted and do something else that you typically wouldn't do without telling them though. That could also erode trust, and you might have to rebuild it all over again.

The key to happiness and health of the married couple is in their unity. Even if they have their own interests or occupations, they still need to find time for each other and their relationship.

It is major problem of women is impulsive purchase at groceries or any problem that leads to financial problems between the couples for example.

We had an era of a couple of years on the poverty line, so by being able to live that way, we've never really exceeded it for more luxurious purchases, even though we can now.

For instance, I had headphones that worked just fine, but one earcup broke off. I kept taping it together to fix it every time it broke, but then it finally broke in a place where I could no longer fix it that way. So, after months of having broken headphones, I finally purchased a new pair for $290ish. I hope they last me as long, or longer, than the other pair; they seem firm, in that there aren't a lot of moving parts that could break like that.

This month was the first time my wife bought jewelry in, who knows how long, that wasn't under $10. She saw something pretty that was $150, and of course, I let her buy it.

We have the money to buy things, but, we're just thrifty still.

Our wall-mounted living room TV (55") went out a couple of months ago, so we just moved a spare 32" to put on a shelf below it. There are some cheap TVs out there, like $250 now, but we just don't see a need to replace it yet.

One thing that is very important for a happy and healthy marriage is to come up with time for dates and tourism because work may come along and overwhelm you and before you know it, you had not taken time to fan the flame. It is very important to give each other quality time, so the fire can easily be rekindled and deepen the bond.

I couldn't agree more. I would also like to mention values, trust, and humor as those things that makes a marriage work. Having similar aspirations, and facing any challenges with cooperation will create a stronger base for couple to stand firm.

When once there is genuine communication and commitment in a marriage or any romantic relationship at that, the other things would naturally fall in place and that marriage or relationship would work.

That is something expected.

I couldn't agree more. Real communication and real commitment are ingredients that make a marriage work out. What can also be seen is that whenever there is communication, whatever it may be between the two individuals, it can easily be resolved.

When it comes to marriage, I always say that the most important thing that would make it work is marrying someone compatible in core beliefs. These core beliefs include finances, parenting, sexuality. When you marry someone that thinks same way in these aspects, you are going to have marital bliss.
