Your life may have been all roses and sunshine during the courtship period but, married life ensues a set of challenges for the newly-weds — especially the bride. From living together with her Mr. Right to adjusting to the new environment, she has to face as well as adapt to a lot of things. To make this ride a smooth-sailing one, keep these seven things in mind.
Initial Few Months Are Going To Be Tricky
The first few months of married life are going to be tough. But the key here is to not lose your cool. Anger brings the worst out of people and unfortunately words once said can’t be taken back. So, think before you speak as words do way more damage than you had thought. Have patience and trust each other. Name-calling and shouting at each other is going to fetch no good. Be it your newly married spouse or your brand new family, adjusting may be a little difficult at first but things will fall into place soon.Â
Being Empathic Never Goes Out Of Fashion
Try to understand your partner, you may be right but listening to him won’t harm you. If you’ve had an arranged marriage, you two must still be getting to know and understand each other. At times when you might no agree on the same thing, knowing each other’s point of view and respecting it will not only help in deepening your understanding but will also strengthen your bond.
Avoid Comparison
Now that the two of you have started a new life together there is no point discussing what kind of life you used to have before you got married and drawing unnecessary comparisons. If you feel uncomfortable regarding something explain it to him patiently without hurting his feelings. You should also avoid criticising him in public or otherwise as it will only hamper your equation. Every person is different, clash in opinions and behaviour is nothing but obvious, so give your partner some time to adjust.
The Ex Talk
All of this should be done and dusted before you get married. It is very important that you start a new life with a clean slate, the shadow of your past should not hover over your present and ruin your present. If your partner gets to know something about your past later, it may harm your relationship.Â
Criticising His/Her FamilyÂ
Criticizing and wrongfully treating your partner’s family is a big No-No. You love your family and so does your partner, it’s better to abstain yourself from saying anything negative about anyone from his/her family. If you really want to share your thoughts make sure to choose your words carefully else keep them to yourself.
When In Doubt, Take Time
There might be times when you might have to hide things with your spouse. Even if you feel the need to share it, you might get second thoughts about it. In situations like these, we suggest you to refrain yourself from rushing into discussing things. It’s always better to take your time and share things only after you are sure that you can completely trust him/her and that this piece of information will not affect the bond that you two share.Â
Constant Nagging
Nobody likes being bossed around the whole day. It will take time to adjust to each other’s schedule and choices, so give him/her some time. If their behaviour still annoys you, let them know. Constant nagging and taunting will do no good.
