9 Most Common Marriage Problems

The 9 top marriage problems I see on a regular basis and what you can do today to fix it.  Here is my top 2.

1. Deficient communication. Communication is a verbal and nonverbal than one person to communicate, it’s focused on a connection between people where it’s safe to openly share ideas and information free of judgment.

When partners are unable to communicate clearly, it’s easy for them to fall into a habitual way of ineffectively speaking to one another. What’s worse is that if poor communication skills are not dealt with, it’s possible for more serious problems to arise.

Fix it:  Couples should learn how to communicate with one another to keep their love life on track and prevent these unnecessary issues.

2. Sex Life is struggling. While there are many reasons why couples lose interest in sexual intimacy or struggle with physical affection, it’s important for couples to find ways to keep their sex life fresh and fulfilling.

Sex may seem like a small piece of the marriage puzzle, but it’s actually rare to have a healthy relationship without it.

Unfortunately, there’s a vicious cycle when it comes to sex: It’s hard to want to have it when you feel emotionally detached, but it’s hard to feel emotionally attached without physical intimacy.

Fix it: To get past a dry spell, couples need to identify problem areas in their marriage and work through them to become physically comfortable with each other again.
