Marriage problems are the food for marriage counseling but not the solution for your marital problems. Many people who go to marriage counseling love the counselors they see - and then they get a divorce. What does that say to you? To me it says that marriage counselors are really good at creating a connection with their clients but don't know anything about marriage.
When you are in a marriage, if you make a mistake, then just fix it. You should never run away from your problems as this is not going to get you anywhere. If the president of the USA and everyone in the white house just threw up their hands and ran away from their problems, where would that leave the citizens of the United States? The same goes for you, if you just threw up your hands and left your family, where would your family be?
People are triune in nature; we are spiritual, psychological and physical . You would think that everyone would agree with that but western psychology, which is the body of knowledge marriage counselors refer to, is atheistic: no God, no soul; nothing! So how can they help anybody when they ignore the most essential aspect of those who seek their help; they can't! The fact is we are souls who have minds and bodies; we are essentially spiritual beings. Understanding how you are put together is very important information if you need a "repair" or if the two of you need to know how to interact. Those who believe mankind is primarily psychological or physical pretend love is psychological (emotional). It is true most forms of passion are emotion, but love is spiritual; man cannot create it; we can't even define love, or even describe it very well!
When your marriage hits the rock, then getting a divorce should not be your solution. There are so many marriages that have ended when they didn't have to end. The truth is, there are many different ways you can go about saving your marriage. If you have recently hit some bumps in the road and those wonderful roses have started to disappear, then it is best to take a look at this article on saving your marriage.
Reality of what marriage is can be found in scriptures of all religions, which lay down the prescriptions and proscriptions for holy matrimony. Granted, the interpretations of rules conceived by church leaders of all religions are varied, but the foundational spiritual principles are universal. When a man and woman come together in holy matrimony the union is sanctified. The union is a spiritual union and so it has to follow the spiritual principles in order for it to function as it is intended. When people pervert those spiritual principles or pretend they don't exist the union of marriage lacks substance and staying power. Marriage can deliver amazing benefits that stretch far beyond what human imagination can conceive and that is what marriage counselors don't know. If they did the divorce rate for marriage counselors and other psychologists would be far below the average instead of roughly the same as with other occupational groups.
You need to learn to respect one another. Yes, he or she has hobbies you do not exactly understand, but that is what makes them their person. Sure, they play video games and it's not fun to you, but we are sure you do other things that are not fun to them. Learn about the other's hobbies. Perhaps, you are not interested in the hobby, because you do not understand it. You see, saving your marriage may not be that piece of cake you had been hoping for, but it is very well possible.
