I know that lots of people want to say that their marriage is "perfect" and they do not argue... but like you mentioned I think it is unhealthy. I think that healthy confrontation is good for a marriage. When things are left unsaid there is usually a lot of resentment that can start to build up and hurt the marriage more then help the marriage. <br /><br />Husby and I get into little arguments but it is the best feeling in the world getting through that argument and still being completely (or more) in love with one another. <br />As long as there is true forgiveness and the issue gets resolved then I think that TALKING will ALWAYS help the marriage! <br /><br />Praying for you and your husband to experience more love together and with the Lord! <br />Praying for you cousin as well, April! <br /><br />Have a great day! Goodness.. i hope you read this. <br /><br />-MonicaxxooMonicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07044884696495404466noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577168444156250027.post-90955976133436761052012-10-31T11:42:54.177-07:002012-10-31T11:42:54.177-07:00I am SO glad you are real!
One of my cousins got...I am SO glad you are real! <br /><br />One of my cousins got married years ago and she stated that her and her husband NEVER fought! like as if that were some accomplishment. To her that was good but underneath that not fighting, she was seriously hurting. As they continued on in their marriage, more stuff came out and it wasn't good. I saw her become a wallflower not the blossoming lady that I knew and it was making me sad and she never shared what was going on.<br /><br />There is a way to fight. And I thank you for bringing up those points. <br /><br />As weird as it may sound, sometimes when my husband and I have arguements, those are SOMETIMES the times I feel closest to him because I'm able to hear his heart. It stinks that it comes to that, and I wish that since we are believers in Christ we didn't have those heated discussions.<br /><br />I just wish that more couples in the church would be real. Yes, it's ugly and I don't ask them to air out all their dirty laundry but I do think that if we are part of the Body, we need to be real. Because in doing so, you just might help others, just like you are by writing this post.<br />So thank you!

I have been trying REALL...I am really guilty of #5. I have been trying REALLY hard to not bring past stuff up whenever an argument arises that may have happened in the past. <br /><br />but I LOVE #6! It's so important that both people apologize even when one of the people doesn't necessarily do something wrong. It's still makes my sweetie feel better when I apologize for coming across wrong, or promising to try and remember more. I know that I really appreciate this also at the end of a disagreement. <br /><br />I appreciate your honesty here! It's encouraging to see real life happening between a Christian husband & wife =] <br /><3 Whitney Elisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17562775102332783373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577168444156250027.post-51339216132048210602012-10-23T11:30:14.751-07:002012-10-23T11:30:14.751-07:00I think that a lot of people....myself included fe...I think that a lot of people....myself included feel or felt that marriage would be a continuation of dating but that you live together. This is so not true. Marriage is hard...much harder than dating. Conflicts arise and feelings do get hurt. I agree that you need to try and stay calm in conflict and use "I" message and not "YOU" messages when communicating. Great article Monica. :)<br />Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16983346665543633796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7577168444156250027.post-25312109723567987492012-10-23T10:42:30.228-07:002012-10-23T10:42:30.228-07:00great tips and good post! people need to know the ...great tips and good post! people need to know the REAL in a marriage...by the way, how was Taken 2?Cramer Coffee and Jesushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04012040900052737182noreply@blogger.com
