In every marriage they must be a conflict because no body is perfect so when it comes the best way to resolve it is by ignoring all the troubles or negative words that comes out from our partners mouths and sometimes we should just allow them to be angry and after sometimes we can go and talk to them back and also advice them on hoe to move forward.

By going for guidance an counselling to a marriage specialist, they are people whose job is to make sure that marriage doesn't crumble and I have seen when couples who almost get divorced after visiting ther they became lovers again and infact their love became more stronger than it was.

I don't consider this a problem in marriage because before you guys get married to each other I believe you must have known and understand what you arr going into, men are always working and some women are akso working class so sometimes their work may take them to a distance area and if you guys trust, love and care about each other you will be very okay with it and it will never become a problem in your marriage.
