The days when divorces were quite rare are long gone. Today, according to impartial statistics, more than 70% of couples who marry for the first time get divorced. Most of these divorces occur in the first 7 years of marriage, which suggests that newlyweds have little idea of the difficulties they will have to face in marriage and do not know how to overcome them.

Step 1
If we take into account the experience of couples who managed to maintain affection for each other, and who have lived together all their lives, then their recipes for family happiness are extremely similar. As such surveys have shown, there are several common characteristics common to almost all happy families.
Step 2
Know how not to get hung up on yourself and your life outside the family. Make it a good habit to share the day's news. Be interested in each other's outer life, but do not pull information from your partner when he is clearly not in the mood to share it. Make it clear that you are always ready to listen to the news, even if they are not told right away, but when such a desire appears.
Step 3
Share what worries or worries you. Men often feel that talking about their troubles is a sign of weakness. A loving wife will always feel that her husband is preoccupied and worried about something. Be more attentive to the man. Sometimes, to instill in him self-confidence and to demonstrate his love and support, it is enough just to cuddle up and say that you will be there and will love him anyway. Such moments unite the family and give each spouse strength, confidence and joy from the fact that troubles are overcome together.
Step 4
At the same time, you cannot become dependent on your partner. Each of you should have your own life, your own interests. Leave room in the house so that anyone can be alone when they want to. The natural human need is sometimes just to sit and think alone with oneself. Don't take this as a desire to distance yourself from you. Respect each other's personal space, and in this case, your interest in your partner will never disappear. Try not to drag you out and not become a burden. Arrange joint trips and trips, outings to nature, going to the cinema, theaters and restaurants. Be interested in the life that flows around you, share your discoveries and findings.
Step 5
Try to find compromises and discuss together the situations that are unpleasant to you. You are unlikely to be able to remake another person, but you can quite safely say what causes your irritation or dislike. Be both willing to give in and listen to what your loved one is talking about. Do not sulk and do not roll up scandals, this leads to even greater misunderstanding, talk and explain. If you love each other and want to live your whole life together, then you need to immediately learn to listen and perceive the opinion of your partner.
