Modern marriages fail because couples do not care about the emotional needs of each other. They have become so money minded, that they compare their mediocre life with others who have a better social status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, modern couples want more and more money to keep in pace with others. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You never envy loving couples. But you envy affluent\ncouples. You think financial security means happy married life. So, you run\nafter money. You want to accrue the social status of your wealthy\nfriends\\relatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both work yourself threadbare to maintain an enviable\nlifestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You have heated interaction with your spouse about money. You are dissatisfied that there is no enough money in the family. So, you work yourself threadbare, to earn more and more money, so that you can enjoy a social status which will make your friends envy you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Are you happy, after earning tons of money you so dreamed of?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You answer is a big no.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is because in the process of seeking financial security, you never really catered to the emotional needs of your spouse. In your race after money, you forget the importance of emotional security in marriage. Your total focus is towards making your marriage money strong, and not love strong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is the role of money in your married life?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Colossal, I should say.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without money, your self-respect is at stake. With money, you can decide how to lead your life on your own terms and conditions. You are your own master.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You need not run from pillar to post for your basic needs. You\ngive the best education for your children. You have your own home. You have\nsumptuous bank balance for a rainy day. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your standard of living is amazing. You possess all the\nflashy thing the world market has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You are envied for your swanky car. Your friends\u2019 gape at your big bungalow. You are stared at with amazement for your trendy dresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Great status symbols, aren\u2019t they?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fine!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But can all these materialistic things bring happiness into your married life?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It cannot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though you are envied when you step out of your swanky car\nwith your spouse, only you know about the uneasy silence that existed between\nyou during your drive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But you take care of your car than your spouse. You wipe it\nto a mirror like gloss. You take step back and admire it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You never understand that cars cannot display love. It can\nonly display your social status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why do you not show the same care to your spouse? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your spouse is the one who going to share all the ups and\ndowns of your life. He\\she is the person who is going to travel along with you\nall through your life journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But you do not really care about making your spouse happy. You never care to spend quality time with your spouse. Your conversation with your spouse is invariably mundane and routine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you see how your married life is robotic and mechanical, in spite of your financial security?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is this the way your married life should be?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

With lots of money, but without love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You will never enjoy your relationship, when there is no emotional security. It is that important for your marital happiness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How exactly can you bring in emotional security into your\nmarriage?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interact with friendliness with your spouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Never take your spouse for granted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be empathetic towards the feelings of your spouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overlook his\\her minor faults.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Be encouraging and appreciative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Never ever degrade your spouse, before your friends and relatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have enough spacing between you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Never try to change your spouse according to your liking. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Practice patience and tolerance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trust your spouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Display your love frankly and openly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have transparency in your relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Spend quality time together. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When the morale of your spouse touches a new low, boost his\\her\nsagging confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you embed these qualities into your married life, the emotional\nsecurity it gives you is worth tons of gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Can you see how you need emotional security and financial\nsecurity to enjoy a happy marriage?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You cannot survive through your marriage with only emotional\nsecurity. You need money to exist in this harsh world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lack of money has a definite adverse effect on your\nemotional security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, blend both into your married life. Seek a balanced\ncombination of financial security and emotional security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, which wins the race?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Financial security in marriage or emotional security in marriage?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though the scale is near about equal, the needle tilts slightly towards emotional security, as marriage is all about emotions and not about currency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
