Three Signs of a Troubled Marriage
78
Marriage is an institution that is built first on friendship and then on love. The lasting kind that starts with friendship can last a lifetiime because of the core values that the husband and wife related to long before they walked down the aisle of holy matrimony. The aisle of holy matrimony, however, is not only a walk up to the priest or preacher to say "I Do," the aisle of holy marimony extends into family, jobs, housing, friends and the whole nine yards of everyday living. Sometimes in one of these areas, there can grow a disappointment and a disagreement with the other person who is a part of the institution called marriage.
When there is disdainment in a marriage, some seek the help of a professional marriage counselor and some seek the help of a divorce lawyer and some seek the help of both of these avenues to recommit or to fix the relationship. Listed here are three reasons when that walk up the aisle of holy matrimony led to disappointments, disagreements, disdain and ultimately a troubled marrriage.
Disapointment as Reason One of a Troubled Marriage
You may have had daffodils dancing in the delight of each word that your betrothed spoke. After the housing loan was disapproved for lack of a good credit score, those daffodils become pansies saddened by the realization that your man likes to play the state lottery before paying the bills on time. Now the two of you may have to stay in the apartment with a baby on the way. You have become disapointed in how he manages the money and as the little woman with child and without a job because of the economy, your say does not seem to matter. So you raise your voice higher that the credit score has to be dealt with instead of the numbers on the balls that pop up on the nightly news. You can't seem to get through so with a baby on the way your recourse is to seek counseling for yourself and hope that the self-confident lottery player will follow you. A troubled marriage can began if you did not take the time to find out how your mate will handle the finances in a situation that needs two responsible parties.
Disagreement as Reason Two for a Troubled Marriage
Disagreements are expected in a marriage because two people of different backgrounds are hooking up to bond in a relationship that involves complexities. Sometimes even twins do not get along, so there is going to be disagreements on things like finances, housing, or even to purchase a home or to rent an apartment. But when the disagreements become commonplace and an everyday occurrence, then the signs of a troubled marriage has emerged. Habits can be good and habits can be bad. If there is a habit of disagreement on everything including the weather, then the couple need to see why just about every conversation results in an argument. The root problem of the disagreement must be discovered if a solution is to be found. Sometimes one of the marriage partner can see a constant factor that seems to bring up an argument and learn not to bring that particular issue up. Then other times there is a habit to disagree on everything in an nonconstructive manner, then the problem may be a personality glitch that should be have been discovered long before a visit with a marriage counselor.
Disdainment as Reason Three for a Troubled Marriage
Disdainment covers reason one of disappointment and reason two of disagreement for causing a marriage to be troubled. Disdainment is another word for one of the marriage partners just being enthralled with the feeling that the disappointments and the disagreements does not warrant sustaining the marriage. A partner expected wine and roses and instead received something totally different and the partner involved can fill in the blank as to how the marriage evolved and what it is now. When someone is disdained with a marriage they feel as if they have to reach really deep in their memory about the other person to find any good reason to stay together. Disdainment is almost like a point of no return to a good marriage but to head to the divorce courts. There is hope however in a troubled marriage that finds itself in disappointment and disagreements. An earnest talk with the other partner between episodes in an objective manner and with a third person can help to find peace and rekindle contentment. The old adage says that there is always hope and if there is hope then there is help for disdainment in a marriage.

Gypsy Willow, thank you for your comment. I like the saying but now wives are hanging in there for the kids.
If you really want to get brutally honest...there are two things that make a marriage fail.
If he is not working , and if she gets FAT!
Also, people expect way too much out of marriage, they think everything will be perfect and wonderful, and that is not the way it is at all.
Marriage is a lot of hard work. It will probably be the hardest thing that any of us ever do.
magnoliazz, thank you for your comments.
There is an underlying cause for the husband being unemployed and the wife getting fat. If they truly cared about each other, he would try to get a job and she would try to look presentable not only for him but for herself and for her health.
I stand by the reasons why marriage fail because, magnoliazz, there is a reason why these two people are not doing what they are supposed to do to keep their marriage from failing. The situation as mentioned seems like the two people involved are keeping themselves in unemployment or being overweight unless they change their attitudes about each other or at least about themselves.
The unemployed husband should find a job for his self esteem as well as to care for his family. The wife needs to lose weight for herself as well as her family.
Thoughts and reasoning always precede actions.
Marriages fail because of disagreement, disappointment and disdainment. It is up to the couple to figure out what their disagreements, disappointments and disdainment are before they can move on to improve themselves and then their marriage. Failing marriages are not all about unemployment and being overweight. Marriages can be rebuilt is the husband agree to find a job, the wife stop being dispointed in her husband and her weight, and both dispense disdainment for each other.

Wise hub. I was always told that the definition of marriage is that it is an institution where that outsiders try to get in and insiders are trying to get out. But maybe I'm cynical!
