greatceasarsghost asked: 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!

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!

liddabet asked: After about 6 or 7 years of asking him to do it - my boyfriend of 10 years (so it’s not really MARRIAGE counseling) has finally agreed to therapy - so he and I are going to a licensed MFT next week. We are having problems that revolve around money (I don’t think he pays his fair share - he thinks I should be compassionate while he figures out how to make money at something he loves) his daughter (I don’t think he is involved enough in her life - and I pick up the slack - but he thinks everything is fine and that I’m too involved in her school work) and his daughter’s Mom (I believe that he tends to walk on eggshells around her - and he doesn’t defend me when she puts me down - and he says he’s trying to keep the peace for his daughter’s sake). I’m wondering how much of this I should lay out on the table in the first session. He wouldn’t be surprised by any of it - as I’ve complained about all of it to him. Is there a standard procedure for the first session with a therapist?

Mr. Workin’ Out asked: Today we had our 5th couples counseling session. The counselor said that the next step is to meet with us individually, so we both made appointments for next week. Can anyone tell me what to expect… what will she want from me… and what is she likely to ask my wife?
The issues are related to *** and intimacy… I complain of not getting enough, and my wife complains about me in general.

heather_michelle41607 asked: My husband and I have been having a lot of problems pretty much since we got married. Problems with drugs which has recently seemed to have changed and We also have very unusual problems, one of the biggest ones is the involvement of a 50 year old man (my husband is 23) in his life. This man has spent thousands of dollars on my husband and I do not want this man around anymore, he has put a wedge between us, i want to blame this man for a lot of our problems even though they are not all his fault. He claims to be a christian but has not dated anyone in over 30 years. He seems obsessed w/ my husband. i **** it! Anyways my husband i are going to try marriage counseling at a chuch next week, i am just curious about what they do and what i can expect to talk about. I am scared they will want me to accept this man in my life. I am pretty nervous about this, i would just like to get an idea of what i am about to go through. thank you!!!
I have spoke with my husband and this guy (jim) about how i feel and it did nothing. Jim does not feel like he is doing anything wrong, i just asked him to at least stay out of it until we work things out and he wouldnt. Actually they are just returning from a trip to georgia, he took my husband there to audition for americal idol, that has caused a lot of problems.

sigh! asked: He says he doesn’t believe in marriage counseling, so he won’t go. He said it’s “out of the question”! When I suggested private counseling for myself, he said “that’s for crazy people and I don’t want to be married to a crazy woman”. I’ve changed as a person in the respect that I’m sort of rediscovering myself. He hates it and wants me to revert to the way I used to be. I don’t want to. Am I being selfish? Was I wrong to ask him to consider counseling?
