Navigating Through Marriage

On my blog Daily Bitch, I talked today about the news that Arnold Schwarzenagger not only cheated on his wife of 25 years, but a decade ago fathered a child with a member of their household staff. see post here

Marriage is not always easy and when you are in the public eye, it must be really tough. For the rest of us mortals who can bear our private pain without the media stalking us, going through a rough patch in a marriage is still a hard thing to do.

Most of us marry thinking that it will be forever. Along the way, stuff can happen. The strength of a relationship is in the honesty and communication between the partners. If there is not pure honest communication, trust and respect; affairs and cheating can be a result.

Avoiding the breakup of your marriage takes both partners working on it. Once you take your relationship for granted, it can lose its passion.

We get busy with the details of everyday life and it is work to maintain a relationship. When you do stop and leave the stress outside your front door and look at what you have to come home to, you can begin to appreciate why you married your spouse. Love makes life easier. Take the time and pay attention to your marriage. A little bit of work will make it even stronger.
