Personal space in marriage.

Many couples ignore marriage for fear of losing personal freedom. And this has its own reason, because personal space and free time should be present in the life of any person, regardless of whether he has a family and a companion in life or he lives with his parents.

Where is the line in marriage that separates attention and responsibilities for the family and personal space? How not to move away from it while delimiting personal space in marriage?

The marriage bond is not the chains by which a person is chained to a family. In marriage, a person has more responsibilities and responsibility for those closest to him, but this should not limit his freedom.

All of us, one way or another, get tired of continuous communication and problems, from being constantly in sight, and it is in order to relieve the stress of life that a person should have free space and time that he could dispose of at his discretion, because with the beginning marriage life itself does not end.

In fact, freedom in marriage is the key to a sustainable family life. A person should have his own room (any room), where he could arrange everything the way he wants, where he could be when he is overcome by problems, where he could devote himself to a hobby, and where households would not hang over a person's soul. The person should have time for friends or relatives whom he would like to visit alone. A person must have financial resources that he could spend spontaneously and on himself, without coordinating the purchase with family members. A person should have opportunities to devote part of their life to a career as a way not only to enrich themselves, but also to become significant in the eyes of others, as well as gain self-respect.

It is wrong to dwell on the formula "Husband and wife are one". Each of the spouses is an independent person who needs space for self-realization. A marriage in which the presence of other family members will "stifle" a person's freedom will not last long.
