Do you have a feeling your relationship or marriage is hitting the rocks? It doesn't have to happen if you don't want it to. Here are few tips to help keep your relationship/marriage intact:


  • Communicate: Never allow communication gap in your relationship. Learn to talk to each about everything. Your doubts, feelings, work, fears, joys, goals, everything. Don't keep things bottled up inside, talk. How will he/she know what you are thinking of, if you don't talk?
  • Trust: It is not enough to say you trust your partner, show that you actually do, in words and in deeds. Yes, even when you have reason(s) not to trust him/her.
  • Sex: If you really want to keep your marriage, never deny your spouse of sex and if you must, try to make them understand why. Sex should be fun , be creative about it, make it exciting , make your sex life interesting, explore, be free with your spouse. Sex is not a ritual, it should be enjoyed not endured. It should never be boring, every single act must be memorable. Make your spouse want you more and more.
  • Forgive: The last person you should ever think of holding a grudge against is your spouse. Learn to forgive every wrong doing. Those we love will one time or the other hurt us, but we should be ready to forgive all the time.
  • Look Good: Always look your best for yourself and your spouse. Dress properly, not shabbily. Familiarity is no excuse. Always look presentable.
  • Be Neat: This is quite different from the point above. You could look good and still not be neat. There are parts of your body that should be kept clean at all times. Also your home should be neat at all times especially for the wives.
  • Respect: Show each other respect, especially in presence of a third party ( friends, in-laws, colleagues even your children). People will only respect your spouse if you do so.
  • Be In Love: Love is colourful, it is beautiful, it is caring, it never gives up.Show your spouse why you married him/her and not anyone else. Always remember you are meant for each other, that was why you decided to get married in the first place, so be in love.
  • Let Go Of Pride: I've never seen two captains in a ship. Forget about pride, in love there is no pride. Be submissive, be gentle, be approachable, be kind, be caring, be interested. In marriage, there should be no ego or pride. Marriage is simply meant for two people looking in the same direction and have decided to walk the journey of life together.
  • Friends: Make your spouse your friend and you will see how your  marriage will become so simple and loaded with lots of fun.
  • Be Prayerful: Never neglect your prayers. It takes God to make all things happen, remember to always hold him close, in your marriage, because you cannot do it alone.
