Because marriage isn’t always easy – how about a retreat?

marriage retreats, counseling for couples

I am one lucky girl.  I have mentioned my husband many times on my blog, about how wonderful and sweet he is.  I don’t make this stuff up – he is truly my soul mate and we fit together perfectly.  Of course, it does help that he answers “yes dear” to just about anything and everything, but ultimately we both know that compromise is a huge part of any successful relationship.

Some of the previous relationships that I was in were not  so rosy, and a few were actually really bad.  Thank goodness I didn’t end up marrying any of the men in the previous relationships, as we would have ended up divorcing, hating each other, or seeking marriage counseling.  My brother and sister-in-law have been going to counseling for a few years now and their relationship is stronger than ever – it has made a huge difference.   I once asked my husband if it was something he would be willing to do if there were ever a rocky patch in our relationship.  He said that he would do anything in the world to keep our marriage together {as would I}.

Though there are movies and television shows that poke fun at marriage counseling, I imagine it has to be one of the most difficult things to go through.  The thought of losing your partner just because differences couldn’t be settled would be devastating.  There are many options and ways of dealing with these hard marital times, including marriage retreat!  I think this is an awesome idea to bring couples back to where they used to be.  I have heard of some of these programs, and to be able to work on your marriage, together, in the comfort of your home would really appealing to me.

If my husband and I ever run into difficult times, I believe we would benefit from something like a retreat, or program that we could do from home – our familiar place where we would be together every, single day.

Hopefully we will never have to worry about marriage problems, but it’s nice to know that there are options out there…just in case 🙂

  1. I agree with you losing your spouse would be devastating. I would do anything including counseling if it would help my marriage. A retreat sounds like a nice thing to do just to reconnect with your partner and make your relationship that much stronger.
