Greetings and Bliss to you. My spouse and I recently married last September. Our anniversary hasn't arrived and I feel as if we've been married for years and without any attention, affection or consideration. I feel completely neglected by my husband. It's as if we're only intimate whenever he wants. He seems proud, selfish and immature. Don't know how long I can stay in this marriage. Please advise.

You always maintained your impartiality with us. You encouraged Rita to be more assertive in stating what she wanted to get from your counseling sessions, as well as what she wanted to get from the relationship. You taught both of us better communication between ourselves, which lead to an emotional comfort level between us that didn't exist before. You took control of the direction of the session if things were not moving along. Thanks so much for helping us." Rita and Mark |
