Have you ever had any type of r'ship couselling? Like marriage counselling? Do you think it's worthwile or just a waste of money. Some people say 'if you're in love then you don't need any counselling but if you're having problems so bad that you have to bring someone else in to fix it up then you probably shouldn't be with that person in the first place."I personally think that counselling is harmless and soemtimes 2 people in love just need a bit of extra help to make sure their relationship runs smoothly and without trouble. What is everyone's take on this subject?

yes counselling helps, but most of the times evaluating oneself and understanding each other help solve the problems.

Being in love does NOT mean you are good at comunicating or good at conflict resolution. Marriage counseling often SAVES marriages that are on the brink just because they aren't speaking on the same level, and are holding things back from each other. Somtimes they don't even know. I think counseling can be a godsend for many couples, and is a better option than ust giving up and getting a divorce (which is a LOT more expensive than counseling!)
