Signs you are a 'Single Married Person'. What does this even mean and how to make your life happier

IWill blogs

You may have heard the term 

Single : Meaning someone who is not with anyone or in any relationship 

Marriage/Companionship: Someone who has consented to being in a relationship of trust, love and togetherness 

Separated/Divorced : Couple who has decided to split or part ways 

Then what is Single Married Person?

Single Married Person is someone who is technically Married but in reality they are absent in that marriage, they behave as though they are Single and marriage responsibilities are being not fulfilled.

This kind of relationship is permanently exhausting and draining and breaks people in it. 

 

Signs you are single married 

1. You may be the only one pulling the relationship, you are the one trying to make things work, nothing comes from the other side.

2. Your partner spends time with friends, family, weekends away from you. They behave as though they are happy away from you.

3. Communication isn't open, conversations don't happen and when you talk it's mostly fight, mostly arguments.

4. You are expected to meet all social responsibilities. Some of your partner's moral duties are also fallen on you but they don't do anything for you or your family.

5. You are not heard or consulted in their big decisions.

6.Marriage feels like a social obligation never feels like companionship 

 

Why does Single Married type of relationship develop?

1. Constant influence of others who get successful in destabilising relationship.

2. Marriages where love isn't the foundation 

3. Narcissism or any personality trait issues leading to this constant pattern.

 

What to do when you are in Single Married relationship?

1. It's important to prioritize yourself. Only two things can happen from here,

Either this marriage needs to become a real marriage where both have shared responsibilities and companionship.

Or the marriage with such level of disconnect that is persistent, depleting and isolating should come to it's logical end.

What is therefore important to understand here that are you truly in a Single Married situation and if yes, how to best navigate through it.

The first recommended step is individual and then couple therapy at IWill.

Individual therapy helps with deeper analysis of what's going on, prepare and heal you emotionally.

And next it's important to seek couple therapy to discuss what's going on, to try and find solutions, to end this burden and battle of each day to change dynamics of marriage.

Or see what's best if nothing works and navigate through this.

 

Single married person is a reality.

Many people are in such relationships and being depleted each day. 

It's important recognise your broken feelings and not give up on you.

Please seek IWill therapy if you feel this article related to your situation. Seek support as you don't deserve to be broken
