Despite what the movies and fairytales tell us, the wedding is not the finish line, it’s just another starting point. Young Utah couples expecting it to be all wedded bliss might be in for a surprise. It’s going to take work, but whether you’re newly married and still in the honeymoon phase, or going through marriage therapy, there are a few simple things all Utah couples can do to take their marriages from good to great.
You should talk frequently and honestly with your spouse about your frustrations, your anger, your disappointments, your love and appreciation for each other. No topic should be off limits. It can be easy to let things go unmentioned, but making an effort to talk can go a long way. If you don’t know where or how to start, Utah marriage therapy might be a good place for you to learn.
To work as a team means agreeing to work together to solve any issues that come up. Focus on solving the problem and don’t get caught up on who’s right and who’s wrong. Each person should feel that the other has their best interest at heart so problems can be solved in a way that leaves both parties happy.
At least once a day you should make your spouse feel loved, appreciated, valued, noticed, or respected. Frequent acts of caring and kindness reinforce long-term intimacy, according to Dr. Terri Orbuch.
Seek out fun activities to do with your spouse. Your spouse should be someone you genuinely enjoy spending time with. Finding activities to do together reinforces your relationship.
If you feel that your relationship is stuck in a rut and you don’t know where to start, marriage therapy may be a good option. There are several qualified Utah family therapists who can set you on the right track to a better marriage.
Swinton Counseling specializes in marriage and family counseling. Jonathan Swinton, PhD, is a therapist that can help.
