Marriage is said to be the bond that ties two people together for life.
However, this does not literally mean that you'll be at each other's side every second of every day of your life.
That only happens in the movies.
Of course, if you're a couple that leads a normal life, then you know the responsibilities that you have to face every day on your own without the help of your spouse.
In short, you still get to have your personal "mini-world" that your husband or wife is not part of.
Such small worlds can be something like work or other activities that you spend a lot of time on without your spouse at your side.
Although there is nothing bad about having these small worlds, there is still the sad reality that some husbands/wives get so engrossed with their own worlds that they come to the point where they don't get to see their spouses anymore.
After the honeymoon stage with your husband/wife, you get to go back to living your normal everyday lives-which consists of work, household chores and other extracurricular activities.
It is undeniable that things can get hectic and when they do, you tend to lose quality time with your husband/wife.
In fact there are instances wherein you won't see him/her for quite some time; especially if your job requires you to travel a lot.
Worse comes to worse, is when both you and your wife/husband have the same amount of busyness in your lives.
You come home from a business trip, and now it's his/her turn to go for her business trip; then when he/she comes back, it's time for you to go again on yours.
Such kind of scenarios may seem like they only happen in the movies.
However sad but true, they do actually happen in real life.
Just imagine the pain and trouble that couples like this go through!
