Why money cannot make your relationship happy?
Most of you do not understand the reality, that money cannot make your relationship happy.
It is sad you feel, that if you have tons of money, your married life will automatically become happy and fulfilling. You are also smug, that your hefty bank balance will make all relationship issues between you disappear like magic. You can never be further away from truth, if you think so. It is because, money cannot make your relationship happy.
- You might have tons of money, but it will not prevent relationship issues from creeping into your married life.
- You might be wealthy and affluent, but it will not make your partner like you.
- You might enjoy an incredible social status, but it will not create a ripple in your partner if there is no love between you.
Do you know why money cannot make your relationship happy?
It is because, the loads of money you have will only make your partner enjoy an enviable lifestyle, and not marital happiness. When you are rich, your partner will be able to buy, whatever he\she craves for without having to save for it. Your affluence will give your family, a secure financial future.
This is all money can do to your marriage.
- Money cannot create love between you.
- Money cannot make you compatible.
- Money cannot make you enjoy marital happiness.
Does this mean, that money does not contribute a thing towards the happiness in your marriage?
Money welds an awesome power in your married life. You cannot underestimate its importance in your relationship. Without money, you cannot fulfill any of your family’s financial commitments.
- You cannot enjoy a good standard of living, without money.
- You cannot give your children a good education, without money.
- Your financial future will be nullified, without money.
But if you feel that money will make your relationship satisfying to you, you will be highly disappointed. The love of your partner will not increase, just because you are wealthy. Initially, your partner might feel thrilled when you make him\her feel rich by buying everything he\she craves for. But when there is no love between you, your partner will not be satisfied with your richness, or incredible social status.
You too will eventually realize, that your money does not have the capacity to make your relationship with your partner, fulfilling and satisfying to you. You are taken aback by the reality, that your relationship is not about money and being rich. You are stunned, when your relationship needs emotional satisfaction and fulfillment to make it feel happy for both.
When you do not make your partner feel emotionally fulfilled being married to you, the tons of money you possess, peters to nothing. It is sad, that today’s modern couples pay more attention to their materialistic wellbeing, than to their emotional wellbeing.
Isn’t true that you too chase after money, rather than chase after love?
You want all the social status things the world market has to offer you. Even after getting whatever you crave for, you are not satisfied. You want more and more money. You want your standard of living, to be one step above your friends or colleagues. Your mind becomes totally fixated on acquisition of more and more social status things, that you cease to pay attention to the niceties your relationship needs.
Invariably, the discussion between you and your partner is almost always about money.
How much to earn?
What to buy?
How to spend money?
Both dream about becoming rich. Strangely, you do not interact with your partner about your love for each other, or about how much both mean to each other. Your concentrated thoughts about money will do your marriage no good. Of course, money is a crucial element in making your marriage survive. Without money, you will struggle to hold your marriage together.
- You need money to give good education to your children.
- You need money for the financial future of your family.
- You need money for your repayments and mortgages.
- You need money for your family’s entertainment.
The moment you step out of your house, you need money in your pocket to face the world. But sadly, in your chase after money, you forget the most essential quality your marriage drastically needs.
It is love.
Your marriage cannot survive without love, as it is the foundation of your relationship with your partner. You are absolutely off the track if you feel that your marriage will survive on its own, provided you have money. If this was true, you will not see so many marriages of celebrities and famous people crashing like nine pins. Many celebrities have tons of money, but no stable married life.
When you chase after money, your home might be full of status symbol things. Your friends or colleagues might envy your high social status. But you will not enjoy the warmth of happiness, which only good relationship with your partner can give you.
Becoming rich in this modern world is easy. All you have do is to work hard for your success. When you attain success, you will also attain great wealth. But if you do not nurture your relationship, your piles of money will only make you feel empty and lost.
To the outside world, you might be envied by your friends\colleagues\relatives, as their eyes are only focused on your richness and social status. But behind your smile, lurks a lost look which is not detected by others. Only both you and your partner know that you had missed enjoying happiness in your relationship, in your mad chase after money.
The priceless enjoyment of being together has never been felt by you and your spouse. Your ears have heard words of wealth, affluence, status symbols, but not about love. Your thoughts were always focused on cars, bungalows, latest gadgets and other materialistic things. In the bargain, you forgot to show your love for each other.
Does this mean, that you should not seek money?
Of course not.
You should do everything to make yourself successful. You should also make every effort to have your family well settled. But everything has its limits. Money also has its own limitations. Money is just a means to provide your family with good things in life. Money can never be an alternative to other important aspects of marriage.
This is the reason; both should spend wonderful quality time with one another to feel bonded with love. When both enjoy excellent rapport, you cannot ask more in your married life. When both are emotionally supportive towards each other, you feel fulfilled and satisfied in your relationship.
This sort of an emotional fulfillment can never be done by money. When you understand that money will only give you high social status, and not a happy relationship status, you will know what is more important to enjoy a good relationship.
So, understand the simple fact, that money cannot make your marriage happy. When you let the scale of your marriage tilt more towards love, your relationship will be full of loving warmth, and blissful feeling of togetherness.
