How important is communication in your relationship?

When you mention communication to anyone, they'll quickly tell you how important communication is in any relationship. However, very few people are able to keep communication flowing and open in their relationship. Very many will quickly argue for the effectiveness of communication in any relationship. Why then is the divorce rate moving higher and higher each time?.Currently, the divorce rate is 60% in the united states.
Nothing is too little to discuss with your spouse. Make a decision on your own to communicate your feelings from a minor offense to even communicating your needs and feelings in the bedroom. The more you communicate with each other the closer your bond with each other.
Question of the day then is, how solid is your communication sytem of your relationship?
Please give tips on how someone can effectively build communication in the relationship.

Remember you too can make your marriage work!

Becoming One Takes time and willingness

       Research has found an increase in the trend of unmarried couples living together in the United States and this group has had the highest separation rate than their married counterpart. Let me tell you, the marriage vow is just a promise that you make to each other in the presence of God. After that, what follows is diligently working hard to keep that promise you made. An understanding of this will give you a completely different prospective on the journey of marriage.Why then do couples separate before the harvest that comes as a result of that seed which is the promise to become one?
     Ephesians 5:31 says...that a man and his wife shall become one flesh. This I tell you takes some time, the wedding vow is a promise not to give up on each other no matter what the case maybe; inspite of your differences, sickness and successes.
      It is critical that one understand the differences between men and women in making your marriage work. These differences are elements that can easily build and can also be the forces that break it apart. Love simply helps you to see the good in someone even if he/she cannot see it for herself.
     A lot of people do not know how to maintain what they have through contentment. Throughout my research on marriage, I have found that contentment is one of the most important keys in unlocking bliss for an enjoyable love/marriage relationship in life.

Relationships and social networking. To add or not to add as friend.

  Sitting for lunch, chatting about facebook and the great advances it has made as far as communication. Communication has been greatly enhanced from the days of telegram and land line. Does anyone even remember what a home land phone looks like. Anyway, sitting with two male co-workers, we started talking about facebook and some negative impact it has had on relationships.
  There are stories of old flames reuniting or rekindling if you might call it that. If someone is in a relatinship and finds a friends request from an "ex", should he or she accept? Are there some exceptions to the rule or once it's over should it stay over?
Are Social networking sites encouraging infidelity in relatinship and marriage?
