For almost 27 years, I kept thinking that when I will get married, I will not get myself into stuff that usually married men end up having. I always dreamt that I will have a unique experience and I will not have to face the same problems that others complain about of have to face willy-nilly.
I was wrong.
I had to undergo almost all the same trials and situations that classical cases of married men had. I found myself as ‘one of those’ and not ‘the only one among those’.
I will share some simple advice that I feel married men should follow in order to make marriage a better experience:
- Don’t blame the wife-side of family ever for anything.
- Don’t play a postman between your mother and your wife. Let them establish conversations directly.
- Control yourself as much as you can. Try to extinguish your anger.
- Don’t abuse your wife, ever.
- Be friends with your wife. Talk about all trivial and simple matters with your wife.
- Don’t force your thought-process on your wife. Discussion should be the best way to explore whether she would be open to accept your ideas or not.
- Don’t force her to change her thought-process.
- Don’t keep grudges for too long. Try to avoid confrontations.
- Let her talk or finish what she wants to convey. If you are not open to communication, you will not be able to establish a good relationship with your wife.
- Let her open her heart to you. Give her full space and encouragement to convey her feelings. Make her feel extremely comfortable in talking to you.
