Marriage is one of the most important institutions in human life—but why are so many marriages struggling today? Why are emotional connections disappearing between husbands and wives? Why are separation, divorce, loneliness, anxiety, depression, and even extramarital relationships becoming increasingly common?
In this powerful and thought-provoking episode of the Yasir Janjua Podcast, Yasir Janjua sits down with Dr. Imran, a psychologist and relationship expert, for an in-depth discussion about marriage, husband-wife psychology, emotional needs, communication, intimacy, parenting, infidelity, ego, financial independence, mental health, and the challenges facing modern families.
The conversation explores why young people are increasingly asking a completely different question—not simply “love marriage or arranged marriage,” but “marriage or no marriage?”
Dr. Imran explains how unrealistic expectations, lack of emotional connection, communication gaps, third-party interference, boredom, ego, insecurity, and failure to invest in a relationship can gradually damage a marriage.
The episode also highlights the importance of listening. Sometimes a husband or wife does not need an immediate solution; they simply need someone who will genuinely listen and understand what they are experiencing.
If you are married, preparing for marriage, struggling with communication, experiencing emotional distance, or trying to understand modern relationship challenges, this conversation offers many important perspectives to consider.
