Common Marriage Problems can be Fuelled by Insecurity
By: Terry Ross
It’s amazing how seemingly insignificant and common marriage problems can be built up out of all proportion through the sheer fact that one or both partners feel insecure.
Insecurity can eat away at you, leaving you with a marriage without trust and a sitting target for normally routine and relatively harmless common marriage problems.
Insecurity fuels jealousy which, in turn, creates common marriage problems that wouldn’t normally exist.
Insecurity means couples fail to experience the joys of marriage in the true sense of the word. Insecure couples generally fail to build the partnership that forms the foundation of a solid marriage and tend to experience a greater number of marriage problems than those couples who feel comfortable in their marriage.
In some instances there are good grounds for feeling insecure with partners commonly struggling to recover from previous marriage problems that have broken the trust in the marriage.
In other cases people marry without even experiencing that initial trust such as when one partner feels that they are less intelligent or lack the good looks that they believe their partner will eventually fall for. In such cases it’s common for marriage problems to be apparent right from the start.
Many common marriage problems are driven by insecurity and can be easily resolved merely through addressing the issues that have created the unease in the first place.
Discomfort in a marriage or in any relationship can leave partners stressed, which in turn fuels insecurity and in itself creates common marriage problems that wouldn’t otherwise exist.
If you are struggling with your marriage don’t just look at the marriage problems that are currently apparent but identify the underlying cause. It’s common for marriage problems to be merely a symptom and not the cause and it’s resolving the underlying cause that will ultimately save your marriage.
