Solaf's guide to marital happiness

We noticed on many television interviews that Syrian actress "Solaf Fawakhergy" is in great harmony with her husband "Wael" who also works in the TV drama field. Other than their big TV love story, it is evident that they are a happy couple. We thought Solaf can give some of her advices for a happy marital life …perhaps, it may help.

Regards eating
I like a lot staying home and consider it my real kingdom, thank God, Wael likes it too. We participate together in the kitchen but Wael is a very creative cook and to be honest, he is more innovative than me. In spite of our many obligations, we are determined to keep a family tradition to get together around the dining table as this issue enhances family ties.
Financial Issues

Money is essential but it is meant to facilitate our living and not become a goal, otherwise, we lose a big part of our souls.

Business matters

Work is the personal identity of the human being and I am obsessed with my work but it does not keep me away from my family and husband. My family life always comes first as it is the cause of my settlement and continuation, any other thing will fade away. In addition, I endeavor to succeed at work to make my family proud of me.

In success:

Real success only comes through effort, hard work and legal ways; otherwise, it will have no meaning. My husband pushes me to succeed by all means and in turn my happiness concludes with his success.
Having different traits
This is normal, good and essential for life to continue.

About his and her family

His family is mine and my family is his, this is a basic and important issue that we both observe. Respecting a spouse family is part of one's own respect.
As for traveling and being away
When any of us travel we miss each other and suffer like teenagers, realizing our need for each other greatly enriches our relationship.
When experiencing problems
Problems between us end within 5 minutes, having different opinions is normal and does not mean we are not in agreement. In other words, we should not look for a similar partner; instead we should accept, love and respect him as is.
Celebrating his birthday
This is a very special day. We may celebrate it among family members or friends; our birthdays are similar in figures. His birthday is 1st. of July and mine is on the 27th of the same month … and therefore 7 is our lucky number.
Children wise
They are our aim in life, God protects them. Both Wael and I attempt hard to become good parents to make our son "Hamza" proud of us.

5 Advices for matrimonial happiness

1- Manage more time to discuss your relationship with your husband, do not concentrate on negative issues but be more positive and address your relationship matters and talk about yourself not about children or the endless life requirements. Do not waste the good times discussing loans or the new color of the bathroom you want to change.
2- Have your meals with him and if husband works long hours, do not leave him his food in the refrigerator but stay with him while eating, talk to him and take his work pressures off as he gets home. This way you promote his sincerity and he will become more appreciative for what you do for him which will positively reflect on your marital relation.
3- Be firm in setting a sleeping hour for the children, this will give you more time to talk with your husband as well as your intimate relation away from your daily concerns that are loaded with problems.
4- Always remind yourself that healthy marriage and relationship that are based on understanding are grounds for a happy marital life, each step you take to improve your relation with your husband will positively reflect on all parties. As you endeavor to bring up your children, you should as well focus on your relation with your husband and regard it as important.
5- Try to match up your bed times so as to get in bed the same time even if you are not sleepy. This will increase your intimacy and add warmth to your relation, enjoy these moments of tranquility and mutual compassion to bear the problems of life and children, when sound asleep, you can get up and resume what you were doing.
