Recipe for a successful relationship between a man and a woman.

Well I think that recipe for a successful relationship between a man and a woman should contain affection, loyalty and harmony. Without affection there wouldn't be any successful relationship, there should be love and passion. Another ingredient is loyalty  only then a man and a woman will go through thick and thin. And the last ingredient is harmony, there should be no conflicts between both man and women.

Mixed marriages is it possible ?

Mixed marriages are becoming more common nowadays. People with different religions, nationalities and languages now make families. Although we live in democratic society but many people are still disapprove mixed marriages. Mixed families have a lot of difficulties dealing with society sometimes even with their relatives who does not approve mixed marriages, also the children have to adapt in a different society.

First of all, I want to say that mixed marriages have some advantages. People from mixed marriage can get better view on different traditions and religions. And it is not the same as going on a tour trip to visit historical monuments or take part in foreign cultural events. Only in mixed family people will became a part of a different culture.  Furthermore spouses will be able to learn new languages from each other and their children will learn two or even more languages.

Secondly, there is a lot of problems between society and mixed family. Many people are still condemn mixed marriages. Usually people think that others marry foreigners for money or better life. Others blame couples because they are betraying their traditions and religion. In some Islamic countries it is a very big sin to marry a foreigner with different religion.  And if someone would do that he would lose support not only from society but also and from family.

In addition, there is a lot of problems in mixed families.  Sometimes people from different cultures don‘t know how  to behave in specific situations like rites or other ceremonies. Also there is many concerns about children education in family, for example parents with different religions can‘t decide which religion give to their child. Moreover it will be hard to understand your spouse relatives as they will speak in different language.

In conclusion, there is a lot of problems that mixed marriages encounter nowadays. I think people should be more tolerant to the others who are trying to make mixed marriage. And families shouldn‘t judge newly weds. Also mixed marriages have unique advantages that the normal marriages don‘t have. And if man and women really love each other, then they will manage to go trough thick and thin.
