Counselling for Relationships

Staying In Love through the Times with the Help of Marriage Counseling

On the first year of marriage, the husband listens. On the second year of marriage, the wife listens. On the third year, the neighbors listen.

This is the situation of many marriages after many romantic courting and dates, after grand, happy wedding and honeymoon holidays. If your marriage is like this or somewhat going to be like this, then it is high time to seek marriage counseling to save your marriage.

Marriage is a bitter-sweet relationship. Even how much the couple loves each other, there will be times when they disagree on each other's decisions; there will be times when each raises his/her pride thus turning deaf ears when confronted with reasons and arguments. Financial, peers, work, time management, kids, in-laws, and other things can cause problems between the couple. In most instances, especially among young couples, these problems can cause them to raise their pride, which can result to heated arguments that will make everyone feel bad. Or worst, will lead to divorce making the family suffer especially if there are kids involved.

To avoid having broken vows, it is recommended to seek the help of marriage counselors.

Marriage counseling will help you seek solutions to your problems without making one sacrifice something. It will help you understand each other. Since there is a mediator, it would be easier to say your side without being stopped short by your partner’s argument. With a professional marriage counselor between you, you can actually finish a session with clear mind that is ready to make a sensible decision.

Such counseling is at its best when your relationship is just beginning to be complicated. As it is always said, it is easier to cure a fresh wound than an old one. For example, the wife discovers that her husband is having an extramarital affair; it would be okay if she can handle the confrontation and her emotion, but if she cannot, it is advisable for them to talk to a marriage counselor who will help them mend their relationship or will help them weigh their love and trust. Then that would be their basis for deciding whether to terminate their marriage mend it. Compared when the wife constantly confronts the husband who always denies his unfaithfulness, and they will both suffer emotional distress for a long time, the former solution would be best.

Seeking marriage counseling would help you stay in love even through tough times.
