Proactive relationship & marriage advice


Every relationship has problems. In fact, close relationships usually stir up a lot of issues in us.

Typically, relationship problems fall under the following categories (not in any order of importance): commitment,
trust, communication problems, power struggles, money problems, intimacy and sex.

These problems feel scary, looming large over your relationship, threatening to harm your relationship. You deal with them in an atmosphere of tension and distrust. You experience them as a destructive force that pulls the two of you apart.

But you don't have to work against each other. Instead, you can become more skilled at working with each other.

And you certainly should not try to sweep relationship and marriage problems under the carpet. As you become better at dealing with them together, you actually feel closer as a couple, with a more solid relationship.

Remember:

Have you ever heard somebody say: "I want a divorce—my partner understands me."?

Understanding your partner doesn't mean giving in. Some conflict is inevitable in marital relationships, as in any relationship. Avoiding conflict is not a recipe for a happy marriage - - but managing conflict is.

It takes a conscious effort to reverse the vicious cycle of miscommunications. But it's well worth the effort.
