What do you think makes a marriage successful?

There are two things that I think makes a marriage successful and those two things are communication and trust. When a marriage has this two pullers then the marriage is built on a solid Piller hence it will be successful.

Communication means a situation where the man and the woman always have time for each other to talk together be it physically or virtually. The most important here is tha there should be a close communication between the parties.

Trust is another thing that keeps a marriage and makes it successful. When the parties involve doesn't trust each other then there will be a real problem because it will be difficult for the relationship to stand the test of time.

How can couples improve communication in their marriage?

Couples can improve communication in their marriage if they try as much as they can to give out little time for themselves every day. No matter how busy they think they are there should always be time set aside that they will use or have for each other in this way their communication will improve.

Also if your pattern happens to be your best friend and gossip partner then you will notice that the communication will improve because you will always like to share with your best friend everything in your heart. So that is how to improve communication.

Discuss the importance of trust in a marriage.

Trust as I have earlier mentioned is one of the key factor to a successful marriage. So to me before a couple should come together in any relationship or marriage they should deal with the trust issue first.

Without trust in a marriage the couple's will always feel insecure when they are not around each other because they will always think that the other person is there cheating on them.

This will bring serious crisis in the family because what ever anyone said about your partner you will believe because you will think that the person is telling you the truth about your partner.

How do couples navigate conflicts in a healthy way?

Couples can navigate conflict in healthy way when they understand each other and then always look for ways to settle without involving a third party. This is why communication is very important. When you are able to communicate well then you can be able to settle dispute without even your children knowing about it.

So when a couple have any issue they should go inside their room talk with each other and then get to the real bottom of the problem and then know who was at fault and then settle it without their children knowing about it.

Do you consider distance between spouses and cultural differences a problem in marriage? Why?

No I don't consider distance and cultural difference a problem at all. I said earlier that communication between spouse can be done physically or virtually because the work of the parties may vary and that may keep them distance apart.

The culture of the person also shouldn't be an issue because you as the person going into the marriage should know all about the person culture before going into the marriage with the person. So this shouldn't be an issue after marriage.
