Over the years I have seen singles who were very competent and purposeful in their professions, but as soon as they get into marriage, they begin to act weird, irritated and angry at every instance, unfriendly to people around them and so much negative emotions displayed.
This got me worried and I went into research and even to the extent of having interviews and discussions with some of them. Based on my findings, the following are some of the causes of dissatisfaction found among these once bubbling singles who are now "shadows of themselves" in marriage:
Dependency on the outward characteristics instead of paying attention to the inner traits.
Choosing a partner without consulting God;
God is the author of marriage and He is the only one who can guide you to the right path if only you will be willing and obedient to accept his will even when his answer is not what you expect.
When emotions becloud sense of reasoning and deeper communication on sensitive matters;
Issues are bound to come up in marriage. Courtship is a period that the intended partners should come to an agreement on how to handle certain matters of the heart like finances, in-laws, dreams and aspirations, different roles, etc. When these issues are overlooked, they pose a problem after the knot has been tied.
Desperate to marry;
It is better to marry late than marrying the wrong person. Patiently wait until God brings your partner. Live a life of fulfilment and service while waiting patiently.
However, happiness in marriage is the foundation for greatness in your career. You need a partner who will complement your weakness and help you fulfil your God given assignment on earth. Choose wisely and prayerfully.
Great insight.
