For how to be happy in marriage does it really make a difference in the attitude of each other to keep the happy relationship? Is attitude a responsibility for a successful marriage? Will one’s poor attitude make it difficult for how to stay married forever?
Thinking back to why I titled this article the way I did, what action does the good or bad attitude of either marital partner strike in keeping a happy relationship?
For example, if the husband is an extremist about things like dinner on the table at the right time, and coffee at the right temperature in the morning, and the wife doesn’t care about coffee in the morning or dinner at night, will this be a successful marriage?
The ways and routines along with values, objectives and beliefs, and all such traits that make us part of the human race are the important part for couples in how to be happy in marriage.

Don’t we have less bondage and more freedom toward self-expression today?
Sure we do!
And this freedom of expression today makes our power of choice so much stronger and where we naturally choose a better attitude toward the happy relationship, thus creating a successful marriage.
I read where an author said that, “Wedlock in the old days was more like a prison term with harsh rules to live under.”

A successful marriage is wonderful to see!

The Course in Miracles states, “See no one from the battleground, for there you look on him from nowhere. You have no reference point from where to look, where meaning can be given what you see.”
Being afraid to let go and move on, and I mean to move forward in life in a newer direction seems for many to be a difficult pill to swallow.
