When to Seek Marriage Counseling

By plrprousers | June 12, 2009

After a couple says “I do” in a perfect word, they live happily ever after. Unfortunately, a perfect world we do not live in. And most times, following the wedding day, that is when trouble begins.

Whatever the cause, a couple can go from a blissful relationship, to a relationship that is cold and bitter.

In this article, I am going to draw on my experience as a family counselor San Diego to help a couple decide, when is it time for a couple to seek marriage counseling.

Arguments, disagreements, and fights do happen.  It is bound to happen in most marriages.  But there comes a time when a couple needs to decide if it is normal everyday life.Or if what is going on is not normal and time to seek help.

Because if you leave a problem within the marriage unchecked, this could be the beginning of a horrible divorce.

So for couples seeking to keep their marriage, here are some key signs to look for and decide if marriage counseling San Diego is needed.

The first sign is there constant bickering?Do insignificant things cause arguments? Allthough seemingly no big deal, this could be the beginning of trouble starting.

Second, do you guys find it hard to say anything nice about each other? This shows you that you two are holding contempt for each other and that is not beneficial.

A third thing is do you find that your level of respect for each other is not there?In every relationship, the couple must respect each other.

Fourth sign, do you find a loss of intimacy with each other?This isn’t just talking about sex, although sex is a part of it.Is it more than that where the feeling of closeness isn’t there anymore?

Fifth, when your spouse is not around are you happier?  This is  not a good sign and is the beginning of the separation.

Sixth, is there a loss of trust between one another? One of the biggest things in a relationship i trust.When you are living and sharing your intimate moments you have to have trust.

Finally, has there been some infidelity with one of you?Of course it seems obvious and simple.Sometimes when this does occur, unfortunately some couples choose to ignore it rather than try to deal with the issues.

Of course there are plenty of other signs.  But these are some big ones when deciding if it is time to seek a marriage counselor in San Diego

If you see yourself in these circumstances, and to save your marriage is what you desire.You have get some professional advice that will help you find ways to help solve these problems.

A lot of times, a third viewpoint is very helpful for the situation, and this is why a family counselor can help.
