Do you feel your marriage is falling apart? Your once beloved partner suddenly changes. His or her attitude becomes overbearing. The hugs and kisses have slowly drowned and disappeared, communication is lost, you are like two strangers living together and each day, you seem drawn away from each other even more. Sometimes the trouble originates from the husband when he begins to keep late nights, arriving home late from work. This could be because of the nature of his job or because he has lost the thrill of seeing his children before they go off to bed or he feels his only duty to his family is to provide for their financial needs and spend time with them only on Sundays. The fault could also come from the wife, she receives him coldly from work, she does nothing to draw closer to her husband and even worse her appearance repels him from her. Some years ago, the Gallup Poll in the United States conducted a survey of most common complaints husbands give about their wives. The results showed that husbands more often complain that:
1 Their wives are always nagging and bickering.
2- Their wives are very spend thrift.
3- Their wives are careless about their appearance.
4- their wives never have a word of encouragement or praise for them.
5- Their wives neglect the care of the children.
6- Their wives neglect the care of the home.
7Their wives go out too often on useless errands or spend a lot of wasted time with their friends when they should be attending to domestic matters.
8- Their wives are always slow and late in getting themselves ready when they have to go out together.
9- Their wives meddle too much in other peoples affairs.
10- Their wives give little or no attention to their appearance.
11- Their wives are too bossy.
The same Gallup Poll also carried a list of frequent complaints wives make against their husbands. The results were that:
1- Their husbands don’t show concern or interest in education or in domestic problems, they act as though they were petty concerns of the wife.
2- Their husbands are too absorbed in professional work and forget the joys of family life. They have no time for family excursions or even going to see a movie.
3- Their husband are very egoistic and act like kings when they are healthy and expected to be pampered like babies when they fall sick.
4- Their husbands are very tight fisted when it comes to spending for the family but very indulgent about their own needs.
5- Their husbands show lesser interest in their wives as she grows older. This especially hurts when they see how courteously he deals with younger women.
6- Their meeting and social engagements last till late in the night and this makes the wife feel lonely, abandoned and unfairly treated.
7- Their husbands go out too often without their wives.
8- Their husbands are too bossy and domineering.
Spouses have to take care of their love life as a good gardener does to his roses. The gardener keeps them in perfect condition always. He takes his time to fertilize the soil, prune the branches and apply a cure to the diseased part. He spares no effort to make sure the plants are well kept. The gardener’s power of belief in his roses and focus on his job gives him success. Spouses should learn to do likewise for their marriage, to develop the same power and utilize it. The power of belief and focus enables you to turnaround any situation in your life, diligently dealing with it and attracting the right solutions to combat the situation and bring about a lasting change.
