  • Summary

  • Expectations – both unmet and sometimes unreasonable, often give a rise to major conflicts in a marriage.


    One partner assumes the other to be a mind reader and to be sharing the same expectations. Frustration creeps in sneakily when things and events don’t go the way we expected them to roll out.


    Partners lash out at their spouses over a tussle on lifestyle choices, staycation vs. vacation, budgeting vs. living it up, grousing over lack of appreciation, family expectations, sharing household chores or even about not supporting their career choices in ways imagined by the upset spouse.


    Reaching a middle ground, a common consensus is not something that comes organically to a couple. It takes practice and a conscious effort to ensure that you don’t burn the bridges with your spouse, especially in a marriage. But you would want to do it and save yourself some serious heartburn and a lingering, debilitating bitterness in marriage.
