Too much arguing and conflict

Constant conflict may indicate that you are incompatible or have irreconcilable differences, according to marital specialists. And more harm than you may imagine could be done to your marriage by constant disagreements and bad conflict resolution! Unfortunately, the daily dispute cycle that 55% of couples experience plays a role in their decision to divorce, and is one of the reasons marriages don’t last anymore.

Psychologists advise that instead of constantly arguing, try to listen to your partner before speaking. You both have the right to be heard and understood, and a lot of conflicts can be solved by simply listening to your spouse’s needs.
