The Most Dangerous
Year of Marriage
The most dangerous year of
marriage, according to statistics,
is the first. During this year
couples either build a foundation
for permanent happiness, or be
gin a descent toward marital
ruin.
A recent survey shows that
half of all marital failures occur
in the first five years. A. quarter
of the divorces fall in the the
United States during the first
two years. But perhaps this fact
is even more tragically signifi
cant. Even if the marriage con
tinues beyond the dangerous
"first year," a foundation for di
vorce and unhappiness may have
been laid during this critical
period.
A glamorous and exciting
courtship may end abruptly and
rudely with the demands of a
new marriage and its down-to-
earth needs. Some couples are
unprepared to accept this new,
and to them, brutal reality. Small
difficulties mushroom into great
ones, which in turn lead eventu
ally toward the divorce court: -

CALIFORNIA SPRAY-CHEMICAL CORP. I
Friday, May II, 1958
United States, suggests eight
basic rules for newlyweds, which
will aid them in weathering that
dangerous first year:
Rules Given
1. Admit and recognize your
first-year difficulties, :yvhen they
occur: this is half of their solu
tion. Don't think that you are
the only couple who have ever
had conflicts or that your prob
lems are unique.
2. Seek competent help if your
sex life is not satisfactory.
3. See your in-laws, but avoid
a fixed pattern of contact: visit
them as you would FRIENDS,
when you WANT to see them.
4. Cultivate hobbies and in
terests, but don't think that all
your projects have to be alike.
It is all right to be different!
5. Treat your marriage as a
partnership, hot as a contest of
wills or dictatorship.
6. Work out a realistic budget
and stick to it.
7. Forget grievances: "getting
even" has no place in a good
marriage. . '
8. Expect trouble: meet it
courageously and solve- it ob
jectively, point ' by point. Re
member, the, most dangerous
year of marriage is the first!
But don't let it throw ydu.
A couple who have come
through their first year success
fully can feel that the worst is
over. They have made adjust
ments, many- of them painful,
but they have also laid a firm
foundation for married happi
ness for the rest of their lives.
