Since opposition of gay marriage comes from religious belief, why is it not allowed in every state? Isn’t there supposed to be a separation of church and state? If so, how is banning gay marriage constitutional?
Since when does marriage have to do with being natural? Are married couples forced to have kids? No, that point is invalid. So again i ask this question, because saying its not natural is irrelevant.

1 Corinthians Ch. 7 talks about the benefit of being single, but I feel there is likely a lot of positive points in being married. What are some ways in which couples can more effectively serve the Lord through their relationship? What are some unique ways that only a married couple might be able to minister to others? In what ways does a man edify his wife, and his wife edify him? What aspects of marriage help each individual grow in their relationship with God?

There are SO many couples that are together this day simply for the fact that they have children together. Now this is absolutely a good reason to try and work things out or what-have-you… but say a couple in their 30’s has two small children (around kindergartner) one (if not both) of these people are unhappy & see no hope of change but feel it wouldn’t be right to put their children thru all that includes… what should that couple do? Counseling isn’t an option. This is pretty much me asking if a 33-y-o married man with 2 kids is very unhappy with his wife what should he do? keep on working/going with it or get the splitting process started now?

Will couples counseling work for us or does he need individual therapy for his wayward ways?

I don’t want to completely give up on him as I still have hope for our 15yr marriage. We have kids, a nice home, money saved and I believe its best to work through our broken marriage.

He has cut out all intimacy with me and moved out of our home since he started dating this mistress over 2yrs ago.

Consider this: our country is only one of two–the other Malta–which do not have a divorce law. Even Spain, Italy, and Latin American (catholic) countries already have divorce laws. The Catholic Church, even in very special cases (especially those who can afford the cost) allows a divorce.

We do have Art. 36 of the Family Code, referring to psychological incpacity as ground for annulment. Note, its annulment, not divorce… there’s a big whale of difference. So far, that’s the way out for couples, and many had to invent, and worse concede to transgressions just to establish the presence of psychological incapacity. And it costs a lot, too.

my ex and i have decided to be friends yet we have a lot of issues to talk about and therefore i came up with the brilliant idea of couples counseling. even though we are not together to get closure and finally get some answers on our former relationship as well as to make peace with my self and hear what he has to hear.i thought that it would be a good idea and good theraoy for both of us since there is a lot of bull that is going on.do you guys think that this is weird or do u think that we should still go to counseling even though we are not together and just to make peace and closure?

So he is coming back from Iraq, (his second tour) and we will resume with our life, marriage and all. We have had some issues together, and seperately. I think we should go to couples conseling…but would that counselor be able to address the issues we’ve had seperately? For ex, what he has seen in Iraq?

My husband and I went through couples counseling prior to him leaving for USMC Basic, and I am currently in voluntary counseling as he prepares to deploy to Afghanistan. My recruiter is telling me to lie at MEPS because its all voluntary, short-term counseling and supposedly doesn’t count. However, the current counseling is through Militaryone because my husband is enlisted, and the previous counseling would show up on an insurance record. I know marriage counseling isn’t frowned on in the military, and is often, in fact, encouraged. Should I just be up front about, even though its going to delay my enlistment because it will need to be processed, yada yada.
I was definitely never on meds… this was/is just counseling to prepare me/us for the changes life in the military and deployment bring. There aren’t even emotional issues at play, its just a way to keep the dialogue open about the realities of what a military family deals with.
I’m going for Linguist/Crpytogropher… does that change things regarding needing special security clearance?

so my boyfriend and I have been together for almost 2 1/2 years. I am 18 he is 20. We had our wedding set and things were getting real serious. However lately things have been rocky. =/ We are desperately trying to fix things but we just don’t know what to do anymore. We tried having a break, but that didnt work out. We really love each other. So we both are wondering on taking couples counseling. We know we are not married so will they still take us? or would they still take us being so young? i dont know what to do. i dont want to pay someone just so they can tell us we are too young and give me the parental lecture. will they take us seriously?
prom queen- our communication and trust issues are breaking us apart.
