How To Live With A Moody And Nagging Melancholy Spouse.

In my series of recent posts, I’ve been writing a lot about the cholerics and the most recent, being “How To Live With An Unemotional And Inconsiderate Choleric Spouse”.

My decision to take on each of these temperament categories is due to the frequent complains I always get from different persons complaining and lamenting about the characters of their spouses. Some have become so bored in their marriage that they feel like getting a divorce. But is divorce really the solution? Don’t think so. But it could be the easy option, rarely the best solution.

Who Are Melancholies?

Melancholies are described as earth. Very accommodating and hospitable personalities. Just like the earth, when you take any action that’s inimical to it, it will react with very negative and unpleasant consequences. Similarly, eventhough melancholies are very nice, hospitable and accommodating individuals, when you hurt them, you will no doubt feel their callousness and rage. Though not easily prone to aggression and violence like a typical choleric, but they’re more ruthless and callous when angry.

Melancholies are very nice, friendly and reliable people. Infact, no other temperament is a more dependable and trustworthy friend than a typical melancholy. You can entrust your secrets with them, and be confident that no one else will hear or know about it.

Although, melancholies are not the first to come to you, they’ll often wait for you to come to them first and be seriously committed to them before they’ll wholeheartedly accept you and become acquainted with you. Some persons often see them to be proud and egocentric. But that’s not really the case. It’s rather because they’re introverts who loves to keep to themself and are not easily open to strangers.

They’re very introspective people who are overly concerned about what others thinks or feels about them. This attitude makes them become so critical of themselves, until they’ll begin to feel very inadequate and consequently lower their self-esteem. They’re very nice and simple on the inside but rarely do look it outwardly. However, of all the temperaments, they are the most misunderstood. This is because they’ve got a complicated and inconsistent character that’s hard to understand.

Their frequent mood swings makes them alternate between high-ecstatic and low-depressed moods. No one can understand their character more than those who lives, sleeps and wakes up with them. The only people that tends to understand melancholies too well, are their spouses and kids.

In their marriage or eros relationship, melancholies are very loving, caring and romantic to their ❤️ heartthrobs. They feel very deeper emotions than the other temperaments. Apart from phlegmatics who comes close, none other temperament is more attached and committed to their families more than melancholies. The well-being of their family is their utmost priority.

Once their family is fine, nothing and no one else matters. Being overly protective and jealous of their lovers and heartthrobs is a major aspect of melancholies. I don’t know between them and cholerics who are more jealous and protective of their lovers or spouses. But I feel it should be melancholies, since they’ve got the deepest inner feelings and emotions than cholerics.

Melancholies are very good spouses to their partners and good parents to their kids. They know how to balance work, business or career and making time to attend to their marital and family needs and responsibilities. However, major cause of conflicts in their homes is their frequent mood swings and nagging attitude. When things do not work according to their plan, it could lead them to depression. Nobody loves or enjoys a melancholy when they’re unhappy and depressed.

During their sad and unfavorable moments, withdrawal from activities, verbal aggression is not uncommon for them. This could be worse if they marry someone who finds it difficult to understand them or love them enough to tolerate and manage that aspect of their weaknesses. “5 Major Weaknesses Of Melancholy That Negatively Affects Their Relationship”.

Nagging is another major oddity of all melancholies. If you want to know if a typical melancholy nags, just ask their spouses. No other temperament nags and complains more than a typical melancholy. For their perfectionist tendencies or should I say their lack of satisfaction, and quest to always get things done the way they want it, often makes them nag and complain more than necessary. Unfortunately, melancholies do not even realize that frequently complaining about almost everything is nagging.
