The rate of divorce seems to be on the increase daily; especially among the younger couples. What is causing this?
Most of modern married couples are not committed with each other. At first married life’s base must be made of commitment. Lack of communication. If the couple works as service person, the might not communicate that too much with each other. But they should ask each other if they had lunch. Lack of love for each other- Whenever you come home befor or after your spouse, a soft warm hug with love will decrease the stress level which both of you had at your workplace. Don’t let your love decrease by the stress. Infidelity spreads like a deadly virus in the society. It destroyes a happy family.Married couples are getting bored with each other. So one’s spouse looks for enjoyment on other person just to get rid of boredom. Unnecessary chatting with friends or colleagues. Which impacts effectively in married life. Sometimes these friends become responsible for destruction of happy married life. Because some fellowes become friends with married persons just to sleep with them. Because they are attracted towards married persons.( some people will see it as an immature thought, but this is true) Comparison with ex lovers- Lack of satisfaction- Lack of controlling mind. Mind plays an important role behind destruction of a married life. Not choosing suitable partner.
Desire for over independence.
I think cinema has ruined the idea of love and marriage for us by portraying it be an unrealistic romanticism. They have positioned the idea of “the one” in our minds that we expect the spark of relationships to be always there. In true sense, the most comfortable marriage is one where you can be yourself and the partners figure out their own particular ways of supporting each other. A partner, who is an individual with own interests, is not capable of supporting his/her spouse in each and every aspect of life. We tend to get obsessed with definitions. If we look into the history of this institution called marriage, it originated from a need of partnership. Two people teamed up where one went out to get food and other stayed back to take care of offspring and prepare meal. Now as societies evolved and more refined ways of living were adopted, this partnership was made legally and socially binding so that the partners feel secure and don’t abandon it because of momentary inconvenience or conflict.
It was given a holy status, so partners honour it’s sanctity and donot violate it, for on its working the existence of entire society depended. If it was not in place there will be ruined relationships and broken individuals all around. As individuals grew more independent of each other by virtue of education, careers etc. This partnership shifted its paradigm from mutual support to companionship and that’s where we were given unrealistic ideas of having an eternally blissful nirvana like image in form of stories or movies, raising our expectations higher than ever. Comparison with other marriages- We also assume a lot about other marriages. Every individual is different therefore every marriage is different. We do not how other marriages are, what are the struggles in them. We assume better or worse about them and project that in our expectations. In a particular situation, where two unique individuals decide to stay together for life, must develope their own customised ways of mutual support and companionship. Just do whatever floats your boat.
