Why Conflicts Occur in Marriage and Can They Be Avoided: 5 Tips from Experts

Quarrels in a couple are inevitable and they do not arise on equal terms, as many people believe.

Disrespect for interests, character traits, and living conditions – all this leads to quarrels.

Experts have explained whether it is possible to avoid quarrels and what exactly causes misunderstandings between men and women.

How to avoid quarrels

1. As trite as it may sound, partners should discuss their responsibilities before entering into marriage.

It won't work to simply divide them. But quarrels can be avoided if partners make a to-do list (for example, for the day) and immediately distribute responsibilities on this list.

If one person completes his duties before the other, this does not give him the right to lie down on the sofa.

Spouses should finish a common task together.

2. Personal boundaries should exist not only for a man and a woman, but also for the family they create.

It is necessary to agree on how often and in what order you will visit your relatives.

It is equally important to come to an agreement regarding visits from relatives. They will not come to your home without warning.

At the same time, you need to avoid any interference in your family's affairs from your new relatives.

3. Establishing bans on personal interests and hobbies can ruin relationships.

If you don't have a hobby, then your chosen one is not to blame for this and he should not sit at home and entertain you in the evenings instead of going to training or a planned meeting with friends.

Even here you can agree and devote time to personal hobbies in turns and without mutual reproaches.

4. Attitude towards career and work can also ruin relationships.

You won’t be able to avoid reproaches until you understand why you need money and work.

But any psychologist will say that a career cannot be more important than family.

5. It is also important to discuss the possibilities of replenishing the family budget and expenses.

Be sure to discuss your goals, attitude towards loans and installments, and plan large purchases.

Don't hide your income level and expenses from your partner.

There may be many more reasons for quarrels in the family, but these are the ones that most often lead to misunderstandings.

It is quite possible that by finding the key to solving these problems, you will be able to cope with the rest.
