11. Consistent rejection from one of the spouses.

11. Consistent rejection from one of the spouses.

If one spouse is always the one initiating sex and the other spouse consistently rejects those advances, it will slowly kill the trust, the intimacy and the sex in the relationship. If you “have a headache” every night, you might need to just take some Aspirin and still make love. See sex not only as a way to connect but also as a way to meet each other’s needs. You are the ONLY legitimate way your spouse’s sexual needs can be met. When you consistently deny him/her, you do harm on an emotional, a relationship and a physical level.

12. You fill in the blank.

No two relationships are exactly the same, so your main issue may be nowhere on this list. Whatever your struggle may be, talk about it with your spouse. Work together to find a solution. Your marriage is always worth fighting for! If your marriage is currently struggling, please watch our new videos to help struggling marriages by clicking here.
