Even in the best of times a relationship can be difficult. Sometimes we can use some help when we are having trouble as a couple but are still on a speaking basis. This is the best time to overcome any problems, once you stop talking, then fixing the relationship can be more difficult. So, what can you do to find help for a troubled relationship?
Why not try a date night together as a chance to discuss each of your feelings about the relationship. This may be all that is needed to clear up some issues and get on track to work towards making improvements. Going out to some public location such as a restaurant may keep the two of you from getting into an argument because of other people sitting around you.
If you are unable to work it out by talking together, ask a close friend or family member to be a mediator for you. This can be tricky because you want someone that will not take sides and be able to listen as a neutral person. You do not want this third party to take sides now, you just want them to help you resolve your issues.
Your best choice for this mediator is someone that has been in a long term relationship and understands the difficulties you may face. Someone that is single and never been in a long term relationship may understand the theory but will not have the actual experience to be able to give good advice.
Another choice which may work better for you is to seek counseling. These services are available for married couples and couples that live together. Check locally to see what services are available for you. If you can get a personal recommendation from someone to see, this may help you make a good choice.
