My Marriage Is Not Working (What To Do When Your Marriage Is Not Working Out)
Most married couple wants advice on a marriage that is "just not working." Usually some things have been tried and maybe a promise or two has been made. Usually the result is some short term improvement but no long term gain. At the end of the day, the whole process will make both parties frustrated and confused because, despite the time, effort, and aggravation going into this process, the marriage is still something that they see as less than desirable. People often describe these types of marriages as "like living with a roommate" or something that has evolved into a sort of "sister / brother relationship." Sometimes I hear comments like "I love my husband dearly, but I'm no longer 'in love' with him. Despite our best efforts, the spark is just gone. My marriage is not working - What to do when your marriage is not working out."
