how can i convince my wife to go to marriage counseling?
she has plenty of excuses why we shouldnt go and i cannot convince her otherwise; she doent like to spread her buisness, she thinks everything will be the same afterwards, she thinks she will be blamed, etc, etc…

we need this. there doesnt seem to be any other option at this point. i know we can save our marriage but why wont she go? should i go alone? we’re running out of time. please help (we have a baby daughter also)

Dana E asked:


My husband isn’t religious, so a church is out of the question. We have been paying $100 an hour and cannot afford it. (not covered through any benefits we have) We are in the Overland Park/Kansas City area.
Thanks!

Dsoftball asked:


My husband and I have had a lot of problems even to the point to where we took a week away from each other (more his idea than mine). Things are going great so far. We’ve been back together for 3 weeks now. I lost a lot of confidence in myself and our relationship. I need some suggestions on how to get my confidence in myself and the way he feels for me back???…

promoter8827 asked:


He has been listening to other people - I’ve worked hard for 11 years to build the business - I work 50-60 hours per week. My business I love. If we do split what can I do to protect myself. I am also working hard on keeping the relationship, but I need to be protected if the worse happens.

How much time are you allowed for marriage counseling when divorce is almost final?

Friday, October 3rd, 2008
marriage counseling
autumn asked:


One of us has already signed the drafted final decree, the other one hasn’t. How much time are we allowed before we must decide whether to proceed with the divorce or to dismiss it? The one that signed doesn’t want the divorce, but is afraid to trust that it won’t happen again & would like some more time before deciding one way or another. We live in a no fault state and we do have attorneys. I’m going to contact mine tomorrow and ask him. I just wondered if anyone might know because I am so worried and nervous about this!
