Sex And Money: Marriage’s Biggest Issues
The two biggest marriage breakers are the big S&M. No, not that S&M. I’m talking about sex and money.
Marriages that have problems are not always related to one of these two big issues, but the majority of marriage problems are related to at least one of them. So how do you get past the S&M hurdles?
The most important thing is to talk about them. With your partner.
Everyone sees life in their individual way. You and your marriage partner may see life through a similar lens, but you have your differences. If you agreed on the same money and sex principles when you first got married then chances are you have both changed enough that you likely have differences now. That’s not necessarily a bad thing. You need to talk about it.
Be respectful of your partner and the changes they’ve encountered in their life. You have made your changes too. Make sure that your partner knows that you respect his or her feelings and verbalize it. You don’t have to agree on every point, but work to find something that you can agree on. Reach a consensus about how you will approach your sex and money issues. With time and a lot of negotiation you and your partner can come to terms with the changes you’ve made in your lives and how you approach the big marriage issues.
