LACK OF FRIENDSHIP MAKES UNHAPPY MARRIAGES

In my years of service as a mental health doctor, I have found that the major cause/causes of a rift in marriage/ relationship is lack of friendship and the extension of understanding that comes with Friendship.

Being in love with your spouse is great but actually LIKING the person and being friends with them is one of the major keys to a lasting relationship…

Although there are no hard and fast routes to what is right or wrong in relationships. What matters is figuring out what works for you. But, for the vast majority of people, coupling and even marrying their best friend works beautifully…..

Friendship starts and stops when you don’t have to keep interpreting your soul to someone…..

So if there is anything you should look out for in a partner or something you should cultivate in your marriage…it should be intentional FRIENDSHIP…

It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes
unhappy marriages…
