            A stressful life sphere such as not enough money to pay the bills, family members with health problems or figuring out who will do what of the overbalanced work of running a home noticeably can create stress in relationships. It either dwindles or builds up tensions caused by the initial problem. Relationship or Marriage arguments are the last thing you in your mind when you are already trying to deal with uncontrollable situations. Stress in relationships amps up if way we talk with each other raises doubt in the relationship, respect, power balance between each other, communication, etc.  Couples often go through periods of change, every day hassles and emotional issues. These can cause uncomfortable mental and physical reactions to life’s events. This challenges you marital relationship.

            Relationship problems...we all experience it from time to time. For the majority of my adult hood I was in long distance relationships due to the fact that I was in the military and deployed overseas. It was always good in the beginning but never failed to last as long as I hoped it would. The strains on a long distance relationship are many and intense. She would always let me know that our love will stomach them over the difficulties of distance and time, and vise versa.  There are many factors that affect a long-distance relationship like jealousy, fights, unbearable missing, and uncertainty about the future. All of this doesn’t help with other things you have going on and I believe having that special someone to talk too helps reduce that stress. But, it can also make things much worse.

            Life inevitably from time to time puts stressful challenges on the path of every couple. As you can already see in comes in many different forms. It’s important to understand how stressful events affect your relationship. Since its unavoidable, you have to own it and manage it. Now that I am out of the military, my relationship stress has gone down but no matter what it will always be in my life. So I chose the lesser effects of stress by communicating. It is the key to a stress free relationship, which in turn keeps us from feeling lonely, losing trust, commitment and don’t let them drive you and your partner apart.

  1. We all say this, but what does communication really mean? Is it always words?
