Marriage warnings Part 3

Hi from Dr. Dreamer,

Here is an example of selfishness on the part of your spouse. If he or she finishes some of your favorite food before you come home from work or school!

Your spouse should be thinking of you, and of the fact that you will come back home possibly tired and hungry. If she or he went ahead and finished the food, that is a sign of selfishness. This is the type of behavior that gets much worse over the years, and then you realize that the flags were there, but you just did not see them!

Another example is if your spouse has a different schedule from yours, and does not pay attention to your schedule. What I mean by that is if your spouse does not have to get up early in the morning, whereas you do, but he or she does not care about the fact that you have to go to bed relatively early in order to wake up early, and she or he decides to go to bed late and turns up the TV while you are trying to get some sleep!

This is total lack of empathy, and shows serious signs of selfishness. Your spouse and you should be coordinating your schedules so that they fit both of your needs. Now, this does not mean that your spouse cannot watch TV while you are in bed. He or she may watch as long as the TV is not too loud. In fact, this shows that your spouse cares about you and about your health/schedule!

Want to read more on that.......
Please come and see my next post!
