Shubhangi Atre: My hubby romantically said I complete him, but I think it doesn’t fly in real world

‘Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain‘ actress Shubhangi Atre who is happily married to Peeyush for around 17 years reveals some secrets of happy marriage. As a first, Atre says that she doesn’t expect her partner to complete her. She shares, “I still remember when he announced, I complete him it sure was romantic. But it doesn’t fly in the real world. According to me, If you rely on your partner to fulfill you, it can lead to an over-dependent relationship where you are not growing as individuals. Instead, couples in healthy relationships should “complement,” not “complete” each other. We should be secure, mature, and whole in ourselves while being open to the other person. So to ensure a happy marriage you have to nurture your own interests and desires, instead of waiting for your spouse to fill in the void.”
Yet, Shubhangi, who plays the protagonist, Angoori Bhabhi in the sitcom says that she still believes in doing things together. She adds, “But we still do things together and also have fun together. While it’s important to not fully depend on your partner in order to maintain a happy marriage, it’s also necessary to share common experiences, injecting new activities and interests into relationship that strengthen the bond. So, for a happy marriage explore together and enjoy.”

The actress who earlier featured in number of popular shows like ‘Kasautii Zindagii Kay’, ‘Kasturi’, ‘Do Hanson Ka Jodaa’ among others also shared the ups and down in a happy marriage. She says, “Like all relationships, there are ups and downs in marriages too. But when you fight, happy couples listen to each other’s point of view, recognize when the argument is going off the rails, and make the necessary repairs. If you and your spouse sometimes argue, or are going through a rough patch, this does not necessarily mean you are in an unhappy marriage. In fact, it probably means you’re normal.”
