"Sometimes you will be miserable". The truth about happy marriages

"Sometimes you will be miserable". The truth about happy marriages

You'll be surprised to know that a lot of couples in happy marriages aren't actually always happy all of the time!

We all have this notion that the happiest couples smile a lot, are always laughing with their partner, and generally have this lighthearted demeanor to them. However, the truth is that the happiest and strongest couples don't necessarily need to be happy all of the time. Here are some truths about happy marriages.

Problems happen, just roll with it

Happy couples know that problems happen, even if you try your best to avoid them. So what's the best thing to do? Stick together, and just roll with it. Work together to overcome any hurdles, and your relationship will be much stronger for it.

It's okay to be disappointed

Nobody's perfect, people make mistakes. Inevitably, even your seemingly perfect husband will have some flaws as you grow together in your relationship. Just take it in stride, and talk to each other about it.

If you feel that your husband could try harder in your relationship, tell it to them nicely. If they really love you and care about you, they'll try their best to be better. Likewise, you should do the same if you're the one who's done something wrong.

Sometimes you will be miserable

It's okay to feel sad, even if you're in a relationship. Your husband might be gone for a few months on a business trip, and you'll feel lonely. That's totally normal.

The important thing is that the love is still intact, and that the both of you trust and care about each other.

Work on your problems together

Don't let your spouse handle his problems alone. You're a team, and the great thing about being married is that you'll always have someone to stand by you whenever you're going through something.

Some problems just can't be solved

Does your husband have a bad habit of not cleaning up after himself, even if you keep telling him to do it? Well, sometimes, some problems just can't be solved.

It's totally normal for all marriages, even happy ones, to have some problems that are always there. The most important thing would be to ensure that in spite of those problems, you're still very much in love and happy with each other.
