Danger Signs in Marriage

August 8, 2017 by Grihastha Vision Team

One should not be alarmed by detecting some of the signs listed below. However, it is important to notice and acknowledge these problems, and to take suitable action before they become serious. Preferably talk with your spouse about these challenges and, if necessary, seek help from others.

  • The couple has little or no fun together, few friendly and intimate talks.
  • The relationship lacks affectionate dealings (sweet words, gifts, service, etc.).
  • The couple ignores or avoids problems (or each other).
  • One or both spouses acts selfishly, focusing only on his or her needs and desires.
  • The couple has repetitive and seemingly irresolvable arguments about such issues as sex, money, children, in-laws, etc.
  • The couple has a general breakdown in communications. Communication is marked by criticism, ridicule, sarcasm, put-downs and/or name-calling.
  • Sometimes, emotional problems for one or both individuals (or with children).
  • Inappropriate behavior with members of opposite sex (e.g. flirting).
  • One spouse uses physical confrontation such as shoving, slapping, pinching as a means of coping with frustration.
  • One or both spouses discuss or threaten to separate or divorce.

Healthy Marriages. Happy Families. Strong ISKCON.

The GVT is a grass roots volunteer group of Krishna devotees who are mostly mental health or educational professionals. Our intention is to provide resources to support married couples and prospective couples primarily in North American ISKCON communities. However, the broader community of Vaishnavas, and anyone who is interested in spiritual married life are welcome to take advantage of the knowledge that is shared here. We want to help spiritualize your married life so that it will be an asset for your Krishna (God) consciousness. We welcome your suggestions to make this site relevant and useful.

It’s our vision that each couple has access to premarital education by qualified mentors
