When we have a slanging match, me and my husband, I often wonder whose fault it is. I have realised that most of the problems can be solved by a patient hearing and a lot of understanding. Love is good in a marriage, but it is the understanding that really helps. Try and fit yourself in the other persons shoes and see his viewpoint. That should help . Would anybody please tell me how else we can keep sane ????

Fights between married couples can't be stopped even though we hate it. Yes, I often think of which fault it is anyway? But come to think of it, we should both work out the relationship afterall we have decided to grow old together, thinking about our vows helps us to be understanding with each other. And you are also right, trying each other shoes really helps.
I think this are some causes of marriage failures: wrong intentions in getting married( like being pregnant), selfishness, unwillingness to work out the relationship and pride.

You're right the root cause of all marriage failure is not trying to understand your partners view, or just flat out ignoring it. Marriage is never easy if it were everybody would stay together. We sometimes have to put our pride aside and compromise with each other. Marriage is a lot of give and take, the thing is it has to work both ways and not be one sided.
