Is Your Marriage Destined To Fail?

By Mark Power


How do you know whether or not your marriage is going to survive? This article may help you decide. If I made you pick one thing that would predict whether your marriage will survive or not, what would it be?

If you picked conflict or fighting then I am truly sorry but I am going to have to tell you that you are WRONG

The truth of the matter is that it is actually the complete opposite. Studies actually have proven that avoiding fights with your spouse is sure fir predictor that your marriage will not survive. It's kind of strange how we try to avoid fighting with our spouse thinking that we are benefiting our marriage. When in fact we are doing the complete opposite.

Don't take this the wrong way, I'm not saying that you should go and pick a fight with your spouse. Starting fights for a happy marriage doesn't work either. I am just saying that people in healthy marriages fight. In other words, it is a sign that you truly love one another when you are willing to fight for your marriage. To be happily married, you just have to learn how to fight well.

People who have mastered the proper way to discuss their difference have successful marriages. But this is often not something that come naturally. This is an art that you need to learn. Once you learn how to have healthy disagreements then you will find that when you fight it will actually help your marriage move forward.

EVERY successful couple has areas of disagreement. No two people are perfectly compatible. "Irreconcilable differences" are like a bad knee or a chronic back-they're part of every good marriage.

The key to succeeding in marriage is not finding the right person; it's learning to fight well with the person you found. You'll have "irreconcilable differences" with anyone you pick. The question is whether or not you can learn to discuss them.
