Hi, my name is Reka Morvay. I'm a psychologist and I'm going to talk to you today about how
to keep your wife from leaving you. There are no simply answers because we are all complex
people and relationships, especially in romantic relationships are very complicated. The important
thing to keep in mind is that people who are happy in their relationships don't contemplate
leaving. So the first thing you should do is examine whether your wife is happy in the
relationship and whether you are happy your relationship, because those two, you are the
two people in your relationship obviously so it is important for both of you to be happy.
Now how to be happy in a relationship, make sure that all of your needs are being met
and all of your feelings are validated and important. If there are problems in your relationship
then it is time to sit down and seriously think about solving these problems. Be honest
and consider all the things that are important for you to get out of a relationship and ask
your wife to do the same thing. What would be important for her to feel happy and fulfilled
in the relationship? What are those needs that are perhaps not being met? Then sit down
and compare your lists and try to reasonably and calmly talk about those needs of yours
that are not being met. If you find that this is too difficult for you to do and you cannot
do it without degenerating in to pointless and energy consuming fights, then maybe it
is time to seek a professional counselor who can help to mediate between the two of you
so that you can have a calm discussion about how to get your needs met. Once you fix these
major problems in your relationship, you will find that if you take the time to show your
love and your care for your partner then both of your level of happiness will go up there
won't be an issue of either of your leaving the relationship.
