All relationships go through phases. You will fall in and out of romantic love with one another depending on what your relationship is going through at the time.

In a marriage, some things about your partner will always get on your nerves. These things usually not cause for divorce, but big things like a lack of trust and honor can destroy intimacy.

Asking your spouse if you are loved is one of the most basic marriage counseling questions. It’s easy to fall in and out of romantic love, but the love in a true marriage runs deeper.

Nearly all couples experience a change in chemistry, but the most important question is how you feel about it.

Ask your partner what he or she expects from marriage counseling. If your spouse goes into counseling with the same hopes of saving the marriage that you do.

Ask your spouse what the reasons are for making the marriage work. If the responses center around love and commitment, the chances are you can work together to rebuild the relationship.
