Husband wife relationship

-


This session is for young girls who are about to get married or have recently gotten married. You will surely benefit from this conversation.


A 23-year-old girl, whose marriage had lasted six months, wiped her sweaty face with a handkerchief and adjusted her dupatta. She said, "Doctor, I'm having a lot of problems with my husband. Our temperaments are completely different. We don't even have similar food preferences, and we often disagree on various matters. When I visit my parents' home, I start complaining about my husband to my mother..."


She spoke for about 20-25 minutes, sharing her heart's concerns. When she fell silent, I said, "I read a sentence in a Russian novel that might be valuable for you today: 'Enjoy the similarities and respect the differences.' A relationship runs smoothly only when both partners tolerate each other's differences and derive happiness from their similarities."


The girl smiled and said, "Doctor, you're absolutely right."


I further added, "Never speak ill of your husband in front of your mother, sister, or friends. You might feel relieved temporarily, but while your heart will still hold love for him, others will only form a negative impression. Later, they will keep reminding you of those negative aspects and provide negative counseling."


I took a sip of coffee and continued, "When your heart feels overwhelmed, write down your pain on paper, and then tear it up and burn it if you want. Or, consult a psychologist. Otherwise, the best solution in life is to learn to endure your pain and find a way out yourself."


This conversation highlights the importance of understanding, tolerance, and effective communication in marital relationships. By focusing on similarities and respecting differences, couples can build a stronger bond and navigate life's challenges together.

Emotional Impact session for girl

  "A 13-year-old girl, with a blush of modesty on her face, wrapped in a large chadar, said, 'Doctor, take this list.' I looked at her in surprise and asked what kind of list. She explained that every time she visits a doctor, they lecture her about prayers, Quran, and distance from Allah, instead of listening to her. She had compiled a list of her prayers, Quran recitation, and remembrance of Allah over the past six months. As she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. Emotional Impact The doctor is deeply moved, feeling a sense of shock and empathy. The girl's innocence and sincerity are palpable, and the doctor is struck by the contrast between her genuine faith and the superficial religiosity often displayed by others. Critique of Superficial Religiosity The passage critiques the tendency to prioritize outward displays of religiosity over genuine spiritual connection and empathy. The girl's words suggest that people often focus on rituals and appearances, neglecti...

Couple session

An important point from the couple's session... There's a common perception in our society that if a couple lives separately from their in-laws after marriage, their marriage will be successful. I'd like to clarify that living separately doesn't guarantee a successful marriage. Even when living separately, divorces happen, conflicts arise, and many issues emerge between the couple. When the young man asked, "What kind of issues?" I said: "The attraction between each other starts to fade, both unconsciously start drifting apart, and boredom sets in. An unknown tension builds up. Both feel like the other person is imposed upon them - because when they separate immediately after marriage, they don't get a chance to adjust to each other." If they spend a few years together with the in-laws after marriage, the relationship strengthens. Both learn to care for each other. The emotions that help strengthen the bond at this age emerge more intensely and b...

Husband and wife session

Today's Session Both husband and wife hold PhDs. It's been a year since their marriage, and unfortunately, the past year has been filled with arguments and fights, except for two months. One day, a common friend suggested they visit a psychologist to resolve their issues. The fights were between the couple, but they often insulted each other's families. After six months, the insults escalated to severe levels, with both parties using derogatory language towards each other's families. After four sessions, today's was the fifth. Both individuals showed significant improvement, with noticeable calmness and composure. I was overjoyed, much like a mother seeing her newborn child. Key Takeaways 1. *Designate a problem-solving time*: Set aside 1-2 hours daily to discuss and resolve issues. 2. *Mutual support*: Focus on helping each other and creating ease in the relationship. 3. *Exchange of love*: Continue to show love and affection towards each other. These strategies he...
