Love binds you together. Unless you love your spouse, your marriage cannot survive. Of course, the frenzied love you had for each other does not last for long. It soon settles down to serene and more mature love.

Modern marriages lack commitment. Do you know without commitment your marriage will plunge to failure?  What exactly does commitment mean in married life? It is the responsibility and accountability you share with your spouse in looking after your family.
It is showing your spouse your emotional support -I am here for you. This dedication makes wonders in your marriage.

3. Loving communication between you

Do you communicate with your spouse? Of course you do. You always communicate with your spouse. But, your interaction is often very mundane and ordinary. What do you talk with your spouse?

You talk about the financial problems of your family. You have tensed interaction about the future of your children. You have heated talk about your mortgages and repayments. You have bored communication about buying groceries and things for your home. How uninteresting!

4. Trust and faith in each other

Unless you trust each other, your marriage cannot survive. What happens when you do not trust your spouse? You become paranoid with suspicion about your spouse.You spy his\her whereabouts.

It is not enough if you are physically loyal to your spouse. You should also be honest in your thoughts. If you fantasy about another person and live with your spouse, you are being disloyal to the core.
