What is the most important part about marriage?

I think it really is communication. People usually want to leave on their conclusions and sometimes misguided perceptions. Then when the talk over happens the offended partner can usually see the other had good intentions but maybe went about it in a way that didn’t make the offended partner too happy.

It helps with the understanding, intentions, and reconciliation. It helps with planning and learning about each other. It’s also a way to figure out if goals align or if we can manage to live with them while they pursue certain goals.

It reaffirms love as well. Sometimes we need to hear it then just see meaningful gestures. Hearing they choose us is so important. It helps keep each partner updated with each others life and if they start changing and growing into a new version of themselves.

It helps with gift giving and pleasing each other in various ways.

It helps keep them safe if they put themselves in danger or get near dangerous situations.

Communication helps us know where they are, what they like and dislike, how they feel about us, what they want and such.

Any parent can tell you satisfying a baby is a bit tough without some extra guidelines or info about babies and childcare. If they cry or yell we don’t always know why. So if you want a thriving relationship you have to communicate even when things hurt.

Personally many times, I have been too hurt to even speak. I forced myself past it or described what I was going through and that I’d try to talk and I did. We came to understandings and conclusions together and knew how to go on from there.

It needs to be mutual because trying to figure it out with someone who won’t speak can leave a partner drained, confused and anxious, if they don’t know how to resolve the problem. It does have to be resolved together. And willingness from both sides makes it that much easier.

Maybe communication itself seems boring or long winded, but with the right person each word and detail counts and it’s always enjoyable to discuss with them and just chat.

Not every relationship is successful, but you’ll get a whole lot further with COMMUNICATION.

If you had the chance to do a relationship twice with no memory:

one with communication and one without-

you’d see the relationship goes a lot further with communication. RESPECTFUL communication. Just because we hurt isn’t a reason to spew toxicity. No one wants to listen to aggressive language. It makes it that much harder to already read in between the lines when you have to read past words with arrows and nails that hurt us.

With communication, even if it doesn’t last, you can be confident and assured because you’d have the closure and understanding. The exact coordinates of where things went wrong and the WHY they didn’t work out. It’d be a helpful lesson than just a heartache and headache to bear. Don’t make it just a bad memory. Make it a lesson. Or make it last. :]

Prenup!  Joking 😂, but it is important, especially these days. People change and feelings change over time. Not everyone can maintain a lifelong marriage. Best to safeguard yourself in case things go south.  In my opinion, the answer is  COMMUNICATION. Open and honest communication resolves most issues in the relationship. If you have an issue, say it. Don't bottle it in. It doesn't matter if it's about you or your partner. Share it. They wouldn't be much of a partner if they weren't there to at least give you an ear and a shoulder to lean on when you need it. If you're happy or excited about something, communicate/share that with your partner. As much as they should be there with you during the hard times, it wouldn't be much of a relationship/marriage if you don't share the good stuff as well.  If you're frustrated about sex life, that's a talk you definitely need to have with your partner. Communicate with them what you want in sex and what's currently unsatisfying. If they don't know, they can't do anything to try and make it better.  Communication is key

Having that one person that’s seen you at your worst, and still thinks you’re the best…

that person that would jump in front of a bullet for you like you would for them..

that person that knows even though everyone says put yourself first… sometimes love means putting your spouse first, especially when it involves failing health…

electromagnetic · Answer

I guess for me would be knowing that my partner and I are on the same page and riding the same wave.
It’s nice to know and feel supported and valued and maybe that’s not the point of marriage or the best part, but it is a strengthener. (Which I don’t think is a real word)

Marriage is a microcosm of civilization itself. So, I would say whatever a person believes is the most important part of civilization is related to what they think is the most important part of marriage.

It's hard to narrow it down to just one thing. For me it would be complete honesty, mutual trust, and being able to communicate openly.
