Chapter 8: The benefits of marriage survival
Synopsis
Surviving marriage has great benefits for couples. Some of them include growing as a person, become more loving, being able to express your issues with your other half, and even becoming financially stable with the two of you working.
Marriage vows entail being together forever and you should be there for your spouse at all times. By doing so, you will become a mentally healthy person and will also help them as well.
Kids can greatly benefit from your marriage as we all know what anger does to kids when their parents experience divorce. Do yourself a favor and don’t let them go through this. Taking your time to make it work is the best thing for your future. Don’t give up!
Here are a few benefits of marriage survival below:
Advantages
Being happy in life
When you are with someone you truly love, you’ll become a happier person in life. After all, they are there to share laughter with you, cheer you up, or accompany you in times of sadness. If you are going for frequent hospital visits for cancer, you might feel anxiety but if your other half is there to support you – you will have a much better day. This is just one example of what we are talking about. By having a partner, you won’t go through certain situations alone. Unfortunately, some people who are widowed or recently divorced become bitter and uncaring towards others.
Protecting your children
By staying in your marriage, you are protecting your children. For example, many girls who do not have fathers will most likely become pregnant at a young age or fall into a rebellious attitude which could result in drug use or drinking. A father is there to provide love, discipline, and protection to anything that could harm his daughter.
Also, some kids will develop depression after seeing their parents split up. Our kids are incredibly precious and you’ll want to make sure they are okay. Seeing a kid grow up with sadness in their heart is something that could very well tear a parent apart. Most of the time, we would do anything for our kids to be happy. There is a greater chance of this if they children have seen their parents together for a long time. It may be a confusing and sad year for them. It doesn’t last for a year but can scar a child in life.
Become financially stable
Usually, it takes two people to support a household. If you happen to have kids, this makes matters worse. A single mother working one job may not be able to make it through because of the bills, the cost of a child, and surprise hospital visits. She might even get evicted from the home because of falling behind. However, with two people working – you will become financially stable. As long as the other person and yourself handle money well and take care of bills like you should, the two of you will be fine.
Make sure your partner doesn’t have a gambling problem and always look over your bank account statements to see what’s going on. You never know when money could “disappear”. This could be from identity theft or your spouse may be taking money from you for their poor spending habits. Sharing a bank account together should only be done once you have been together after a few years and trust them.
