Yes I definately would seek assistance if we had a problem that we could not resolve between us. The same applies if my husband thought we should see someone, because it he thought it serious enough to bring the subject up, then obviously there would be something that was concerning him. Anyone who says they would not seek help if it was needed, or if their partner wanted to go, does not value the relationship.

Yes, indeed. In fact, im in the process of doing that right now. Im going to counseling for myself, then eventually we want to go to marriage counseling. Sometimes couples know that there are problems, but dont know how to fix them on their own and they need a little guidance! I think counseling should be done before a couple decides to just give up.

i hope i would be strong enough to seek counselling but im not sure if i would be able to. However if i can quote paul Hogan in crocodile dundee, whats matter with you wanting counselling, dont you have any mates?

I would probably suggest it but I know that my husband would reject the idea. He is a typical african american man who thinks no one needs to be all up in our business. I wanted to go to pre-marital counseling but he said no. Although, it has been 5 years now maybe he has matured enough to realize that if (God forbid) we were to begin having issues in our marraige that he would accept help to save the family we now have.

Maybe would but only if all the avenues were tried first to sort it out. Have had counselling in the past and the strength I have received from handing over my hard earned money makes me more determined to try and work it out myself, so far so good!

I don't think that their is any harm in going for counselling if you had maritial issues because you can only sort out your problem if you share it with someone.

I may get counselling depending on the marital issues. If it is the one I can handle, I don't need any counselling, but if it is the one I can't handle or I am doubting what to do on the issue, I will need a counselling for that. But if you were the one, would you need counselling if you have a marital issues?

I don't think I will go to counseling if I have marital problems. I am the type of person who believes that marital problems should be dealt with by husband and wife alone. Intervention from other party is necessary if we could not reconcile anymore. Probably the intervention may come from a counseling expert rather than family members to avoid bias and to make things really private.

In past when we married there is not need of counselling with probable wife - guardians of both side did it and matched us. In our country quantity of divorce is not too much for this reason. Sometime counselling between boys and girls do not keep intact as there may have some scope of falsification because when love is growing then none is look for far future. So involving of guardians more safe for future life.

If I was married and we were having problems then yes I would go for for counseling with my wife to try and make things better and be happy again. I would do whatever it took to make things better and for us to stay together. If would have to be something really awful that she did in order for me to not go for counseling.

Yes, I definately would. If it needed to save my marriage, improve my relationship, myself, and what is going on. I would not be ashamed in seeking counciling if needed. Love and marriage is that important - DNatureofDTrain
