There are many problems that are faced within a marriage. I'm not married, but I have witnessed some of the problems that can be faced, especially within the first few months and year of marriage. Something I thought was really interesting was what my Family Relations teacher told us. He said that a marriage is more likely to last if you spend less on the wedding. Now this isn't always the case, but speaking in a general sense, that is what happens. How could this be? Personally I feel like if someone is spending a large part of their money on the wedding, not really caring what the price of something is, is a big indicator about how they may spend money when they are married and this can cause many financial problems within the marriage, especially if the woman's family is rich and the woman is used to getting what she wants because she has always had those resources(same can go for the man as well). Now I'm not saying that being rich is bad, it is how the money is spent that matters and could become the problem, in a marriage spending according to personal needs and the factor of income affect our living. Therefore, we shouldn't spend money on things that we can't afford. Financial problems are just one issue that might be presented in a marriage, but there are many others. I am just going to go through a few because the problems that might appear in a marriage are endless. One issue that may not seem like that big of a deal is sleeping styles. Everyone has their own sleeping style, some people like to snuggle and like to sleep with a lot of blankets and some people like to have their space and sleep cold. When you put two people with completely opposite sleeping styles together in a marriage, it can result in some issues. For some couples it is a major issue that makes at least one of the individuals concerned about the strength of their marriage. Another issue that might be presented is when a child is born. The husband might feel neglected and feel like he is not valued in the marriage anymore. This problem can be avoided though, it can be avoided if the woman remembers that the husband won't be going through the same things that she is during the pregnancy. The woman should try and involve her husband through the process as much as possible so he may feel a connection to the child as well. Also that he may feel like he is included throughout the whole pregnancy process.
Thank you for reading I hope this provided some insight for you :)
