How can stress affect a relationship

There are always several problems that can affect a relationship. relationships are definitely not perfect, there are always going to be several reasons why to be stressed and disappointed, now being in a relationship can be complicated due to the lack of control we have over our partners or people that surround us on a daily basis compared to when one is single. This lack of control for a third party can affect everything that happens within the family, a quick example of this is if the husband simply doesn't want to work or doesn't provide the necessities for the family, the family is the one that will suffer the consequences. Just as described in the last sentence there are numerous problems that can occur in the family that will definitely cause stress, and anxiety, and will make a couple take hard decisions that can conclude in not desired results or can also cause a good impact on the family.

Events that cause stress are the ones that unify families or separate them. Numerous times my family has had challenges that can be really difficult, I'm fortunate because these challenges have unified my family probably each time more. Seven years ago, in January my little sister was born and we were all really happy with her, she was the baby of the family, the spoiled beautiful girl, she is the youngest of six, so she was really loved by all her siblings. Six months after my sister was born, she started to have really high fevers that just went worse and worse, about two weeks after the doctors were trying to find an answer for her illness they found a tumor on her head, and she went to surgery and everything went well, in that surgery, but two hours after she got really sick and passed away.

My family and I were devastated, there is no greater pain in life than seeing a little innocent girl pass away because of life's unfairness. it was defiantly so hard for us to see her go, and not have her with us, we all felt incomplete without her, we loved her and missed her dearly. we knew that there was no way for us to fill the emptiness of her departure. Nevertheless, our family got to be more united than ever, my parents stopped having regular discussions, and we loved each other more, for us as children it caused us to have more faith in God's plan, we were always seeking God's comfort, and it made us love each other more and enjoyed each other's company,

There are several ways a family can be affected by different factors, and it definitely hurts and it is a process of growing. Every time that we go through something it needs to be our responsibility to grow from that experience, there is always a way to grow from every experience we have in life. As a couple, all of these experiences can help us grow together and be more united, just as Paul described in his epistle to the Corinthians, and be one flesh. 

By accomplishing our responsibilities as a couple, each gender according to what the couple has decided to do for the relationship to work we can make the stressful events become a learning and unifying experience. I think that the love and interest of our partner is the most important factor to make complications within the relationship controllable. Being empathetic is the correct way to make complications lighter, striving to feel what others feel can change the way that we are and make each other's burdens lighter, and it will be the same way in a marriage. It is necessary to strive and seek our partner's wellness first.
