1. Newly Weds think It Is Too Early to Set High Expectations
Exorbitant expectations lead to ample planning coupled with fewer squabbles. As “just married couples” you have nothing to do with children but an alone time first. Not only children but focusing on long-term goals and good strategy shouldn’t come as an emergency.

Ask yourselves, what if you have an unplanned child or children? Unexpected things are meant to happen. Having kids will affect your marriage in one way or the other. Think about your expenditures, your home and end decisions.
*Setting high expectations means that you care for your daily needs as well as future. At times sacrifice should take its course.*
2. They Believe they Are Unbeatable
The incomparable natives believe that they can never part, not even death is meant to break their bond. They are the jewel in the crown and peak of perfection. If you believe in this sentiment, you are lost. Any time and any day strikes of bad luck follow us, and we can’t escape. The end truth is that you never know about tomorrow. In other words, you never know when your dearest partner will breathe his/her last.
Newlyweds should learn to set their duck in a row. This means having a stable life keeping in mind that tomorrow won’t cry for itself. If need be, keep your marriage certificate safe coupled with your partner’s bank accounts. Getting ready for anything also means having a life insurance policy. It is all about your family coverage.
3. Not Thinking About Your Spouse’s Background
Note that before getting married, each of you had a life that was either well lived or perfection wasn’t met. You find that your other half had everything that he wished for in life. On the other side, you had to hassle for daily bread. Such differences bring conflicts and disagreements in the house.
You may try to save a little penny, but he or she is busy gambling. What works for one partner shouldn’t work for both of you. Being under the impression of understanding each other’s background early in your relationship will help you to set boundaries.
4. Expecting Perfection
Even those who are married for over fifty years can tell you that no one is perfect. Extending gratitude to your mate should be a norm. By this, I mean forgiving and acknowledging their uniqueness. Be ready to accept your partner’s flows and vice versa. Instead of sending mixed signals and playing blame games, rationality is the key to a happy marriage.
Instead of focusing on his or her mistakes, express your unconditional love subtly. I know real traits sets in when you stay together as husband and wife. This means that you shouldn’t expect too much from your end. The end secret is to accept what he or she is bringing in the relation.
5. Thirsting for a Soap Opera Marriage
We have seen it all in televisions and movies, and we think that the personified traits are best of all. This means that we lust for being a better person other than creating our operas. We dream of having an all smiles damsel and not a so moody man. These are just fantasies, and when realities hit, we are miles away from what we believe in.
To avoid such fairy tales, newlyweds shouldn’t mind about what happens behind closed doors, that’s why they are closed. Create a decent marriage that only works for both of you and not others. If it means that he’s best in the kitchen and you are a perfect bank manager, then so be it.
6. Newly Weds Hate To Adjust, Which Is a Wrong Move
I didn’t say it’s easy to adjust, but for a long and treasured union, you have to break all bonds. By this I mean adjust your spending, responsibilities as well as living together. Try to work on your marriage now and then.
Let your partner know that you appreciate their effort. Learn to make sacrifices for one another. Not to mention, learn to relate to each other like friends and not lovers. Also, don’t forget to set boundaries but repeating the same mistake twice isn’t applicable.
Other Things to Consider
- Letting go of past mistakes and forging each other daily
- Make sure you have appreciated your partner by celebrating their successes and wins
- Hug, kiss and touch each other often
- Be ready to accept love challenges and acknowledge what you can’t change
- When life gives you lemons, give it lemonade
- The grass isn’t greener on the other side, so learn to water your lawn
In addition to the basics, determine that you won’t remain as “newlyweds” for the rest of your marriage life. Either way, have a destined plan to sustain your marriage bliss for eternity. What happens after the wedding bells let it remain in your corsets.
