Are You Going for Pre-Marital Counseling? 

You have found your love. And you are all set to get married. But you realizing you have been fighting and bickering more often as the wedding day approaches. Friends dismiss your fears as pre-wedding jitters. Dr Marty, Marriage and Family Counselor, warns couples of this. It is important to resolve conflicts beforehand than to get into the marriage fighting.

Dr Marty says that couples approach counselors complaining of the increasing number of arguments and fights they have been having as they are about to get married. Such couples are wise who seek pre-marital counseling. Pre-marital counseling does not indicate that you are no longer in love; in fact, it indicates that you want to hold on to the love and make a smooth entry into your married life.

If you are not sure about how pre-marital counseling helps, let me explain.

Pre-marital counseling helps set expectations at the beginning. This minimizes the chances of conflicts. You learn to communicate better in your marriage. You learn to resolve potential conflicts. Such counseling helps you understand each other’s interests and beliefs. It helps you understand each other’s views on marriage and family. This will make sure you understand your goals in the relationship. If you have conflicting views about having a family, it is wise to sort them out before you tie the knot.

More often than not, people will not seek counseling unless there is a problem. Well, I say that you should not wait for such a day to come; take preemptive measures and stop problems from coming up now and then.
