Counselling Is Not Only For Married Couples by AppleofGod(f): 8:07pm On Oct 23, 2010
There is often a misconception that marriage counseling is only for those that are married. This misconception has led many counselors to change their status from marriage counselor to that of relationship counselor. The reality is, you don’t have to be married to seek marriage counseling.

We live in an age where couples are less likely to take that extra step to formalize their relationship. That doesn’t mean the relationship is any less important. There are still children involved, shared assets, and an assumption of lifetime togetherness. The only difference between married and unmarried couples is that piece of paper.

What is a little different is the perceived stress that this situation can put on a relationship. Because that piece of paper is missing, bringing a relationship to an end is fairly simple – there is no divorce as such. However, you still have the difficulties of dividing up assets and determining child arrangements.

If an unmarried relationship is under stress, it is important to seek professional help as soon as possible. The issues that unmarried couples go through are no different to those of married couples. Marriage counselors are able to help couples, married or not, work through those issues and so save the relationship.

If you’re in a relationship, don’t let a piece of paper prevent you from talking to a marriage counselor. I’ll let you in on a secret – they don’t ask to see your marriage certificate. As far as a marriage counselor is concerned, your a couple who have come in looking for help – and they do that very well.

Counselors are served as a mediators and MEDIUMs, THEY LISTEN TO BOTH SIDES AND PRESENT a screenshot so the other person can see from that person's perception.

If you are not seeing your partner's point sometimes a counselor who is unbias can provide that assistance so that you can make improvements on your own without resorting to divorces or more unhappinesses because BOTH OF YALL ARE FRUSTRATED,

When there are unhappiness in the home it FUKK UP THE VIBE FOR EVERYBODY, don't be selfish and seek outside PROFESSIONAL UNBIAS help if you have to IN ORDER TO MOVE ON,

PRIDE FUKK UP MARRIAGES,
