Can you see how different both are in your attitude and behavior?<\/p>\n

But strangely such marriages work fine.<\/p>\n

How?<\/p>\n

Your emotional spouse makes your marriage very loving and caring. Emotional well-being is very important to make your married life worthwhile, meaningful and fulfilled.<\/p>\n

You need instant support from your spouse, however practical you might be. Your emotional spouse more than gives it to you.<\/p>\n

But when your spouse is too emotional, your relationship turns highly demanding and clinging. His\\her decisions are always emotional and impulsive. Your emotional spouse does not think and act, but act and regret.<\/p>\n

Marriage is not always about being emotional.<\/p>\n

Your married life needs practical approach also.<\/p>\n

Your practical spouse takes the much needed hardcore decisions to make your family secure and stable. He\\she looks far ahead into the future. He\\she is very rational and logical about family responsibilities and obligations.<\/p>\n

Who is the emotional spouse and who is the practical spouse?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The mentality of a wife and a husband is very contradictory and clashing.<\/p>\n

A wife is often emotional and impulsive. She always needs the emotional back up from her husband.<\/p>\n

An emotional wife feels deprived and lost when her husband takes practical view of her contribution towards the family. She feels upset when he is not appreciative of her care.<\/p>\n

But a husband is completely different in his mental attitude. He is always pragmatic and rational in his approach towards his family.<\/p>\n

A practical husband feels bored when his wife is too sentimental and emotional. He feels the pressure of making her understand the practical aspect of married life.<\/p>\n

When you are too emotionally demanding your married life is very quarrelsome, hyper sensitive and combative.<\/p>\n

But when you are too practical your married life is tiresome, boring and dull.<\/p>\n

“I feel emotionally deprived when my husband does not support me when I am tensed and stressed” my friend lamented.<\/p>\n

She felt lonely and alone because her husband did not emotionally support her.<\/p>\n

Her’s was an emotional craving!<\/p>\n

“My wife wants me to mother her always. Can\u2019t she understand that I cannot always be proving my love?” her husband retorted back with mild irritation.<\/p>\n

This is hardcore practicality for you.<\/p>\n

So, when two mentally different persons unite together in the loving bond of marriage there are bound to be conflicts and clashes.<\/p>\n

A very normal marriage scenario.<\/p>\n

How should an emotional spouse and practical spouse live their married life?<\/p>\n

Your married life should be a combination of both emotional well-being and practical approach.<\/p>\n

You should be practical when the situation demands it. You should also be emotional to make your married life near perfect.<\/p>\n

Can you be practical when your spouse is undergoing intense sorrow and grief?<\/p>\n

No!<\/p>\n

You cannot and you should not.<\/p>\n

Your spouse needs your emotional support to feel loved and cared by you. Your matter of fact approach makes your spouse feel lonely and used. Too much practicality kills the happiness in your married life.<\/p>\n

Are you demanding too much attention from your practical spouse?<\/p>\n

His\\her practical approach rebels against your seemingly immature behavior.<\/p>\n

So, strike a perfect balance between practicality and emotional craving.<\/p>\n

How to\u00a0fulfill\u00a0the inner needs of your emotional spouse?<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
• Looking directly at your spouse when he\\she is talking to you. \u2013 It signals that he\\she has your full attention.<\/li>\n
• Small physical gestures like a pat in the cheeks, arms over shoulders, a warm hug gives your emotional spouse a great sense of emotional well-being.<\/li>\n
• Communicating in a friendly manner makes your interaction fun and interesting.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

  How to fulfill the inner needs of your practical spouse?<\/strong><\/p>\n

  \n
  • Help your practical spouse to face your family problems rationally and sensibly.<\/li>\n
  • Be down to earth and reasonable like him\\her.<\/li>\n
  • Do not be impulsive<\/li>\n
  • Think twice before you do anything. Listen to your practical spouse.<\/li>\n
  • Face the ups and downs in your married life realistically.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Practicality does not mean your spouse lacks love. It just means he\\she takes life as it comes. Emotional craving of your spouse does not mean he\\she is unrealistic and idealistic. It just means he\\she loves you that intensely.<\/p>\n

    Both aspects are very needed to make your marriage a loving shelter. Combination of practicality and emotional well-being makes you a near perfect couple.<\/p>\n
