It’s a fact of life
that sooner or latter, most married couples will face their share of
relationship trouble. Unfortunately, no marriage is perfect, as most
couples can attest to. There is just a multitude of marriage problems
that couples can be faced with. A recent survey revealed that the 5
most common marriage problems are:
1. Infidelity
2. Constant low-grade bickering
3. Money issues
4. Neglect/silent treatments
5.
Boredom/lost spark
Your marriage trouble may
also stem from one or more of these issues. If so, you and/or your
spouse probably feel you don’t get enough attention from each
other. You may also think you’ve done your share of talking
(or fighting) over the issues. So what do you do when you’re
caught up in a web of problems, and can’t seem to talk your
way out?
Why not try something that
doesn’t require talking? You can breath new life into your
marriage right now, just by TOUCHING your spouse more. Now,
it’s possible you may not feel like it at the moment. You may
be thinking, I haven’t touched my spouse for days, maybe
weeks. DO IT ANYWAYS- you need to make the effort to connect with
him/her through touch. This simple action requires some discipline, but
start doing it regularly and watch your marital situation turn around.
Just try it- REACH OUT AND
TOUCH YOUR SPOUSE TODAY. Make it clear that you're touching them solely
to connect in that moment. Try a warm kiss or a gentle rub. Stroke
their cheek or play with their feet. It only takes a moment, but the
positive energy can carry you through an entire evening.
Done consistently, the act of
touching will produce a softer, more forgiving marital environment.
This will allow you to approach your marriage trouble from a better
perspective, which will result in more success solving the issues. And
it works for all couples, no matter how severe their relationship
problems may be.
You see, touch creates more
than just a physical connection. It makes us feel different inside.
When you caress your spouse's hand, play with their feet, rub their
shoulders, or stroke their cheek, there's a moment there (if you do it
RIGHT) when your spouse knows that you are completely connected with
them. And this feeling makes all the difference in helping you deal
with marriage trouble.
Fill your marriage with a few of those moments each day and watch your
relationship trouble start to dissipate. Take action, touch your
spouse, and begin the journey of transforming your marriage.
