Losing Interest

When we lose our interest over one thing, what do we do ? Losing interest is one of the big reasons why marriages fail. Individuals who marry because of physical attraction are the ones who easily experience this. When that certain quality that he likes in his partner changed or fade, his love to her also changes or lost. Losing interest is also lack of attention to what he really likes in his partner. This thing happens to some married couples. So it is important to have a genuine love to your partner before you decide of marrying her. Marriage is sacred. It is a special bond between two persons.

Marriage is a work in progress. For it to be successful, you have to nourish it emotionally, spiritually and physically.

Yes that's correct. Interest,intimacy and connection between each other should not be lost.

Physical beauty fades over time . It is best that we love according to what we see inside of our partners .

@SIMPLYD That's really true. So we have to take care of our beauty so that our partner will not look for other partners.

That should be the right thing to consider. But many couples seem to not know about it.

Getting to know the person well enough should be included as well. Love could fade overtime when we can't handle behaviours of a person that wasn't shown before marriage.

During the old days, courtship lasts for long period of time. Partners get to know each other well. But nowadays, it's different.

Losing interest happens for the man and woman. Sometimes the couple is no longer compatible and these things happen. Sometimes there's just a disconnection or abuse. Some marriages come back together while others do not.

So it is important to be a supportive and attentive partner to somehow avoid this thing to happen.

@magallon yeah but we cant control our partners.. Sometimes we see some qualities of our partners that we didnt know before. It is ideal to met halfway, to be understanding,.to communicate but sadly some things are out of our control.

@rona07 True. Sometimes there are things that we really can't avoid to happen. But if love is really deep within, everything will be taken cared of. Communication is the best remedy.

Yes it is never a good idea to lose interest in each other. we should always spend time with other as much as possible.

@skysnap Marriage without intimacy is boring. Same with understanding and caring.

Yeah, that's right. Spending time together strengthens intimacy.

that is why it is important to know the person better. It needs time, we need some time to know the real person we are going to spend our lives with.. That's why in the old days here in our country, courtship takes years before lovers becomes officially bf and gf and they take 4-10 years before they get married..

@carexing25 So it's the same with us here. Long courtship was long ago too. Now is modern times so even way of courtship became modern.

One can only lose interest when he/she sees someone more interesting.

Yeah, that's true. So you have to always make your partner interested in you so that he will not look for another.

of course, this may be one of the reasons. But, confidence, faith, and understanding are the most important factors that stabilize a relationship.

I agree, one should always be interested towards his or her partner. Without that interest, it would be boring and later on the other would look for someone else who could ease the boredom.

Correct. Because of lost interest in their partner, extra - marital relationship happens.

I agree with these points, I had seen that there are some people who treat their partner as a trophy, or means to an end,....there are cases where a lady walks in the office after her marriage and I see that her face is grave as usual or with pride that now she is different , as if she got stars on her shoulder, I didn't see that Radiance on the face which is supposed to come from the satisfaction or the bliss of marriage, Its like two different bodies and one soul , marriage bondage is so sublime, I don't see such things on the faces of so called generation next. Getting married is just like getting promoted in a corporate setup, so everybody wants to get promoted and once somebody gets promoted its a stalemate, no wonder their marriage lacks LOVE.

That's why people should really make sure about themselves that they are really ready to take that vow of marriage.That they are ready to accept their partner no matter what or who he/she is, through thick and thin, in sickness and in health.
