what is the secret of marital bliss?

fadorg · 03-24-2009, 12:35 AM

Looking all around we see a lot of people who are inflamed in passion and after a while they end up in mariage. whaoo...

The honey moon was great ...

Then afterward the passion wane,then they seek to separate. Then the question is: is there a secret to marital bliss?

Pls share your veiws

Thanks
Joy

JDSalinger · 03-24-2009, 01:57 AM

Hi fadorg,

If I was to be funny, I would say the answer to your question is to avoid it and you would have your marriage bliss. However, if I were to be honest, I heard something that someone said about marriage bliss which is it's really about learning to love your spouse more and more with each passing day and do it unconditionally. When you think about it, this can be a very challenging thing and, I think most people don't enter into marriage really thinking about it in these terms. I think if you can learn to keep your own selfish interests in check, you stand a far greater chance at realizing this goal for your marriage.

studygm · 03-24-2009, 03:53 AM

You have to be able to find bliss in the worst of circumstances. Blessings are often disguised as things that not not entirely sound like blessings. People who learn to appreciate the finer things in life would be able to find marital bliss as well.

jayden.fellze · 03-24-2009, 04:42 AM

Marriage is also like a job, you need to put an effort and invest time, likewise, it is also very important to to always put God in the center of everything.

parrott · 03-24-2009, 09:11 PM

right! put God first, and then invest time, energy, and commitment.

give as much as you can, don't expect anything in return.

pluto1 · 03-24-2009, 11:36 PM

Some very wise words have already been said. Marriage is an institution, you should enter into it if you are ready to sacrifice, compromise, adjust and give lots of love. Do not expect anything in return. Marriage will last lifetime. For real lovers, honeymoon period never ends.

Chika Nwoko · 03-25-2009, 02:54 AM

I read a chinese saying once that said. The kind of woman that you want to marry is one that you would have no problem driving in a car for 400 miles. If you are still speaking at the end of the journey, then it's a safe bet that you will get along. But alas, marital bliss takes a lot of tolerance. Each person has to keep rediscovering themselves.

robertstr · 03-25-2009, 03:43 AM

Hi all!
I think the secrets of marital bliss are:

1. Kisses should always be wet and sloppy.
2. Husbands should limit vocabulary to "Woof!"
3. Being ignored is not an option. Scream, whine, bark and paw until your husband pays attention.
4. Obedience is a good thing.
5. Good grooming is an asset.
6. If you stare at your husband long enough, eventually you'll get your way.
7. With unconditional love, you can hope for at least a 10- to 15-year life expectancy.

billbarrett · 03-25-2009, 07:10 AM

I don't know the general secrets of marital bliss, but here is my list:

1. Communication
2. Tolerance
3. Care for the partner
4. Fun
5. Passion
6. New things and activities TOGETHER
7. ... you name it ...

Kim Davis · 03-25-2009, 07:37 AM

Get up each morning and say to yourself, "what can I do today to help my partner have a brighter day".
If you get respectful reactions to things you say to your partner, you will feel safe to talk about anything.
Instead of complaining about what your partner isn't doing, start asking repectfully, for what you want them to do
Men like to feel needed and women like to feel heard.
If you say to a man, "would you please do me a favor, or can you please help me with this" they are more apt to do it because they want to be your Knight in shining armor
For men, acknowledge what your partner said, you don't need to fix it, just acknowledge
These points will surely help

Certainly men like to feel needed but women do to....

Always make sure any idea/chore/favor that is yours/you want - phrase it to make out that it's his - whatever it is - you'll soon get things done

fadorg · 03-25-2009, 09:36 AM

Tanks so much for all your input,infact i dont know how to put this but you had all said a lot of things that are helpful.

fadorg · 03-25-2009, 09:44 AM

But if i may ask, can't there be like one or two principles to marriage bliss?
You know like everyone knows tha love is a must in marriage,which other one can be 2nd principle to marriage bliss?

Appreciate your views

I'm coming up for my 39th wedding anniversary. The secret- always admit you were wrong, (even if you weren't!).

prosperity!

Jenie0109 · 03-25-2009, 11:03 AM

marriage will do no good if youre still not satisfied loving only one husband or wife.. If you say "i do"..you surrender your being for the only one...

TE2 · 03-25-2009, 11:03 AM

The first thing that came to mind is...

"Tolerance"

Giving it more thought - something philosophical:

Love is giving freely, expecting nothing in return.

- Mary Carson

Regards,

John

ps - It really is about putting the other person first. This is really driven home when kids are added to the family mix.

fthomas137 · 03-25-2009, 11:08 AM

After 16 years of marriage and me being home with my wife full-time for a year, here's my list, most important first:
1. Putting God first in my marriage. Hey, I signed the contract with Him and my wife.
2. Putting my wife before me. These girls are a strange lifeform and us guys have to really dedicate time to figure them out. Or at least avoid the pot holes!
3. Love my wife. Don't judge her. Just love her.
4. For the ladies, honor your husband. Nothing speaks more to a guy then being honored.
5. Don't forget about my marriage to my wife, especially when life gets busy and seems to overtake this important commentment.

Takes a little each and every day!

koolwarrior · 03-25-2009, 11:46 AM

there is no secret to marital bliss, except...marry when you're broke.

that way, if you two wanna split, neither one of you can afford a divorce lawyer to screw you over.

energyguy · 03-25-2009, 11:52 AM

Too many people seem to forget that when they stated their vows that they committed to love their spouse "for better or for worse"

Recently I saw a great movie...If you are serious - the message is honest and will put marriage into better perspective for you.

honestbizpro · 03-25-2009, 12:00 PM

I think people just need to remember that a relationship, married or not is a living thing thats needs to be nurtured...forever.

Date forever. Even when married.

Take good care of yourself....forever....not after you get divorced and have to get back in the market.

Tinkerbell · 03-25-2009, 04:38 PM

Joy,

After 22 years of marriage which has not been completely blissful (there was a learning period...that lasted about 13 years, lol) I'd say there are three "keys" to a blissful marriage. 1. honest communication 2. compromise and 3. honest consideration

Now that I think on it, I could probably write an entire guide about this, but I'll try to keep it short.

1. Honest Communication: If you're always honest with each other, there can be no situations werein "the great misunderstanding" is encountered.

2. Compromise: If both partners are willing to find an agreeable middle ground, there won't be power struggles. You'll both feel equal.

3. Honest Consideration: if both partners in a marriage honestly consider the other in all things, there would be harmony.

Tina

Now i think we are getting somewhere,but can we really say their is no secret to marital bliss?

Even as simple as riding a bicycle is,for one to be a good driver he must have the know-how, the secret. Which means that there is a secret to marital bliss

I'm not married so I wouldn't know. However I would imagine that one of the most important "secrets" is making sure you marry the right person to begin with.

Jay Moreno · 03-25-2009, 06:11 PM

we take each other for who we are faults an all - and respect and trust each other completely, my wife is my best friend!

we are expecting our 2nd baby this time a lil girl in about 3 weeks after what has been a rollercoaster pregnancy!

Cant wait!

Jonathan 2.0 · 03-25-2009, 06:19 PM

Hey congratulations Ukescuba.

Always good to hear something like that. When I finally decide to settle down I'd like to think I'd have that kind of relationship too. Because it sounds generally blissful.

Better for you Zig at least you've got time to learn the ropes before you join the line

jamsferguson · 03-25-2009, 06:27 PM

I don't think there ia "a" secret to marital bliss. Maybe dozens of secrets, some of them applying to couples of one type and not another. Each marriage is made up of two people, each with their own personalities and psychologies. They are going to fit together differently than other couples do.
There are several post about that say "put God first". I haven't got a clue what they are talking about. They are probably wondering how I could not know what they are talking about. Their "secret" isn't going to work for me.

What works for you? what do you want/expect out of marriage? Find someone who you are compatible with in terms of expectations.

Katharine Hepburn: Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should live next door, and just visit now and then.

only 22 years for me - my version is "She'll be right. She is right. She was right." it's worked so far

7digital · 03-28-2009, 01:24 PM

When I first got married I thought it was going to be la,la land. I won't go into details but, it wasn't. You have to stay committed to one another and tolerant.

Someone once told me that someone interviewed a couple that was married for like 60 years and they asked them what was their secret to their successful marriage. They said, " Always say, Thank-you ."

fadorg · 03-28-2009, 04:10 PM

That a good one there 7digital,infact i'll have to say thank you.

Joy, After 22 years of marriage which has not been completely blissful (there was a learning period...that lasted about 13 years, lol) I'd say there are three "keys" to a blissful marriage. 1. honest communication 2. compromise and 3. honest consideration Now that I think on it, I could probably write an entire guide about this, but I'll try to keep it short. 1. Honest Communication: If you're always honest with each other, there can be no situations werein "the great misunderstanding" is encountered. 2. Compromise: If both partners are willing to find an agreeable middle ground, there won't be power struggles. You'll both feel equal. 3. Honest Consideration: if both partners in a marriage honestly consider the other in all things, there would be harmony. Tina

Hey congratulations Ukescuba. Always good to hear something like that. When I finally decide to settle down I'd like to think I'd have that kind of relationship too. Because it sounds generally blissful.

I don't think there ia "a" secret to marital bliss. Maybe dozens of secrets, some of them applying to couples of one type and not another. Each marriage is made up of two people, each with their own personalities and psychologies. They are going to fit together differently than other couples do. There are several post about that say "put God first". I haven't got a clue what they are talking about. They are probably wondering how I could not know what they are talking about. Their "secret" isn't going to work for me. What works for you? what do you want/expect out of marriage? Find someone who you are compatible with in terms of expectations. Katharine Hepburn: Sometimes I wonder if men and women really suit each other. Perhaps they should live next door, and just visit now and then. Jim

Thanks guys. I'm sure I'll get married one day. Right now I'm happy dating and learning the ropes as you put it. I'm too young for all that stuff really. Chuckle Maybe when I'm 30 or something.
