Traditions, saying, beliefs, language, and values are just a few things that make up our culture.
Culture is the framework in which families are structured. It shapes our expectations and ideals. Culture
plays a part in the meaning of marriage and our roles as husbands, wives, children and parents.
Understanding cultural differences and similarities related to marriage is important. Culture affects the
roles that spouses take within marriages, the age at marriage and number of children a couple have, the
meaning of divorce, cohabitation and non-marital childbearing, and the way parents raise children.
Understanding how relationships and marriages vary across cultural contexts, and how they are similar, we
will be able to identify the unique ways that marriages and family life affect people of various cultures. As
a result, we will be able to help families and sustain happy marriages.
A cross cultural marriage or similar love relationship can be extremely exciting. The cultural
background, visits to the other country, the language of the country and learning to speak it, the different
habits and ways of doing and saying things that people from other cultures have, are. all very exciting
indeed. What of the disadvantages of a cross cultural marriage or love relationship with someone from
another country or cultural background? No matter how much you love your husband or wife, no matter
how high your level of cross cultural awareness, cross cultural communication and respect for differences.
Misunderstanding seems to be unavoidable.
