• Compromise

  Everyone naturally changes with time. Sometimes the changes may be small and insignificant but at times they may be major.

  Try not to hold whatever changes your partner has undergone against them. Instead adapt and compromise wherever possible.

  Agree to disagree on certain issues and work as a team. When you give on some things, your partner has the incentive to also do the same for you.

• Improve Dialogue

  A breakdown in communication makes it difficult to talk with your partner about what’s going on in your marriage. Begin by improving how you communicate about the small things in your relationship and reduce the tendency to make decisions on your own without first consulting your partner.
