Marriage Problem Solving
Do you argue too much? Has the romance died in your marriage? Do you feel like all you are any more are room mates? One of the hardest things to do is marriage problem solving.
You don’t like that she is always telling you to pick up after yourself, she does not like the fact that all you want to do on Sundays is watch football. It’s just a fact of life, men and women are different.
These differences are not a bad thing; rather it is how we deal with these differences that will determine the success of our marriage.
One of the positive ways to problem solving in a marriage is to practice open communication. How can you ever find a solution to your problem if you can’t even come out and tell your partner exactly what is bothering you?
Don’t let things bottle up. I once knew a woman that hated it when her husband left dishes in the sink. For years she never said anything and unknowingly he would just leave them in there after he ate something. One day as was his usual afternoon routine, he ate a sandwich and went to leave a dish in the sink.

Just a few minutes later his wife yelled and yelled at the top of her lungs at him about not only dirty dishes, but dirty clothes on the floor, oil drips on the garage floor and beer cans in the backyard.
As you can see, she was only mad about the one dish, but after years of holding it in and not telling him how she felt about other things, it had all built up and culminated in one long drawn out tirade.
The job of a marriage counsellor is to help couples in their marriage problem solving. This person listens and tries to understand the root of your marriage problems, then offers a non-biased opinion on some positive solutions.
Practicing open communication can help you to save money, time and energy in your marriage problem solving. I say the word practice because often times open communication does not come naturally in a relationship. The key here is to practice until it becomes natural.
Divorce rates have steadily increased over the years, which makes marriage problem solving skills a must. Don’t become another statistic. Talk to your partner, let them know what is on your mind, what is bothering you, what makes you happy, what makes you sad.
And on the flip side, be sure to listen to your partner as well. Coupled with a good resource and open communication with your partner, you will be well on your way to solving any marriage problem that comes your way.
