Marriage Counseling Alternative, I did it so can you.

I believe that marriage counseling is in your best interest. Unfortunately I don't believe most counselors understand exactly what you're experiencing. How could they unless they've been through it themselves.

People have often asked me, does marriage counseling work ?

Or can you get counseling by yourself ? I think the answer most likely depends on where you're getting your advice.

I would stay away from somebody who believes that sometimes things just don't work out.

I'm sure there's some who have and understand, but which ones?

That's where I come in; I will help you understand what you should and shouldn't do. Things that helped me get my wife back, and what pushed her away farther.

I sought after help with the intent of making mine work. On the contrary what I heard was somebody giving us excuses for why it's okay to fail.

When you're looking for help, getting out is not what you're wanting.

I am very pro-marriage not the legal part, but the committed part. You know that death till you part thing we said in our wedding vows.

You're not looking for somebody to make it easy, or help you feel good about what you are feeling. You want real help.







Do you have more marriage counseling questions? I will address those a little bit later.

So stay away from negative information! I know you're searching for someone to give you the answers. Those will come in time, trust me on that. For right now seek out many sources of information. And then use your best judgment.

Tell yourself divorce is not an option, how would I explain that to my kids?

You see I have been through this before. I'll be honest; I didn't try to get any help back then. And now my oldest daughter, who is now almost 18, has been going back and forth from my house to my ex-wife’s house, since she was two years old.

This is not something that I wanted my two younger kids to have to go through.

I'm not telling you to stop getting advice or marriage counseling. But don't rely on one source. Look for other alternatives, things that will keep you positive.

Remember the most important thing when you're trying to get your life going in the right direction. Don't lose hope! This is the fuel that will keep your heart and mind positive.

Don't expect to see change happen right away, this will only make it harder to stay positive. And watch for the subtleties, the small things, they are the steps in this journey that you must take.

For us it was our children, they were the glue that held us together. Look for something that will keep you strong.
