Indications Your Marriage Needs Help

Input From Family and Friends

If your family or friends recognize that you have a problem that needs addressing, pay attention. People outside your marriage can often spot a serious problem before you can. Family members and friends often have intuitive hunches or become concerned about your relationship based on behaviors or attitudes you may manifest. Listen carefully if someone says, "You guys need marriage counseling."- By Mitch Temple 

How did it get to the level where family and friends started discovering that there is a problem with your marriage? Sadly, you cannot ignore what they say, you shouldn't encourage them either. 

The first problem to deal with is not the problem discovered but the fact that it is already getting out and getting noticed by others; every marriage experience one problem or the other at one time but when it takes someone out there to start telling you about your own problem then that is a serious problem. It is either your spouse is sending the signal for help since he/she could not communikcate with you. 

This can be very counter productive and dangerous. No one knows you better than yourselves and this makes the contributions meant to help you uninformed. Go back home and sort yourself out.
