Is Marriage All About Venus and Mars?
Marriage is a partnership and like any partnership it can get rocky.
One of the best descriptions of the differences between men and women is 'Venus and Mars'! The differences become more acute in times of stress, especially financial stress. Money, or lack of it, brings many negative emotions to the surface.
When you are trying to resolve a problem, remember these differences between men and women. We tend to communicate differently and our priorities may not be the same for dealing with the same problem. Men tend to want to solve a problem or give information. They can be quite concerned with details. Women are more concerned with connecting, getting the touchy feely stuff sorted out and getting information.
It seems really difficult to open the lines of communication when you are both stressed but when you "feel the fear and do it anyway", you feel so much better. You will strengthen the bonds between you and battle the world together.
