If your marriage is in trouble, it is time to seriously think about marriage counseling. Often times, couples call for marriage counseling when their relationship becomes a crisis.
The other day, I received a call from a woman who was inquiring about marriage counseling. She told me she did not know what else to do. Her husband was threatening to leave her if she could not stop complaining about his “boys night out”. She was overwhelmed by this threat to leave. At the same time, she did not know how to get him to come home. She told me she had tried everything she knew. “Something had to change”, she said.
Consider the following:
Do you argue over the same issues?
Do you or your spouse frequently not come home from work?
Do you or your spouse frequently become defensive?
Do you feel contempt for your spouse?
Do you wish he/she did not come home?
Do you find yourself interested in someone else?
Do you regret marrying your spouse?
How would you describe your spouse to someone you just met?
If you paused to answer these questions, don't wait. Get help before it is too late.

Love Lessons
Welcome to Marriage Advice!
Marriage Advice blog is here to help you with your marriage.
What if you were missing out on real happiness because you did not have the formula for creating a loving marriage? The truth is what you don't know can hurt your marriage. Half the marriages end in divorce. The the other half survive for all the "wrong" reasons.
Ask your friends if they have a great marriage.
I asked my friends if they had a great marriage. Guess what happened? I got giggles, wise comments, but no one said, "yes", my marriage is fantastic! I thought...WHAT!!!
These couples were married over ten years. I wondered if most of my friends were "in it" because it was a good partnership. You know...kids, money, home, investments. But who was "in it" for love?
Let's face it. Many couples stay together for many reasons, but love may be on the bottom of the list. Unfortunately, they soon realize their relationship lacks the zest or passion they need and want. It is not uncommon to find many couples who eat dinner in front of the television or read books in separate rooms. Yet others take every opportunity to sign up for business travel. Others complain about sex-less unions for years. For many couples this is a way of life. But at some point, this partnership faces isolation, lack of intimacy, even potential infidelity, and divorce.
If your union can gain from learning "love lessons" you are in for a treat. Imagine, having a relationship which is more than a partnership.
It does take work and some really great "know-how" on what and how to make a marriage thrive.
Here, you will find loads of great expert marriage advice, Q&A, relationship revive strategies, and inspiring love stories...
So, I encourage you to post your question. Take a moment to share a story which has helped you revive your marriage, or just sit back and take in some great marriage advice.
