Relationship well-being facilitator Merishka Megnath speaks on LGBTQ+ couples
Speaking to Briefly News, Merishka Megnath shared insights and some informative points about the LGTQ+ couples and how people should recognise and understand them.
She said:
"We recognise that LGBTQ+ couples, like everyone else, are human beings with bodies, emotions, thoughts, and beliefs. While all couples face relationship challenges, LGBTQ+ communities have additional layers to consider. Understanding and addressing these unique aspects is crucial in fostering consistent and healthy relationships.
"Differences in topics like public displays of affection, raising children, marriage legality, and family acceptance are present in LGBTQ+ relationships. Clear and compassionate communication is essential in addressing these variations. For instance, understanding each other's feelings on public displays of affection requires sensitivity to societal perceptions.
Merishka Megnath addresses the importance of a traditional wedding celebration
Speaking on the strength of a relationship and the purpose of a traditional wedding, the founder of The Wellbeings Practice, Merishka, told Briefly News:
"The strength of a relationship is based on the daily experiences of both individuals and the dynamic of both people as a couple - how connected, cooperative and communicative are they?
"As spectacular and beautiful as a traditional wedding experience is for a couple and their families, it fails to serve as a factor in the longevity of a marriage. An experience of a traditional wedding is once-off, fleeting. Although it can spark extended family member relationships, it is again up to the couple to navigate their daily and long-term lives together."
