Why People Worry That Depression Will Ruin Their Marriage

Posted in: , , ,

If you are suffering depression, then it is likely to affect even those in your social network. For this reason, depression can affect both the sufferer and his or her marriage.  If untreated in the right time, depression can destroy many aspects of an individual’s life.  Friendships, work, relationships and domestic life are some of the aspects that can suffer adverse effects from depression.  
If your partner suffers depression, then your relationship is likely to suffer. If you are living with a person with the condition, being cautious and understanding the person's situation are advised. The best or advisable thing to do, however, is to encourage the person to take medication and visit a doctor regularly for monitoring of the condition. Professionals like counselors can be of help also.

Which is The Best Way to Sleep When Sharing a Bed With Your Partner?

Posted in: , ,

Maybe the better question is how do you sleep with your partner, because there's probably no best way to do it, just the way that suits both of you.

I have shared an article in the past about what a couple's sleeping position says about their marriage or relationship [read here].

For instance, the way a couple often sleeps "can reveal stresses and strains on a relationship, with people claiming their sex life improved if they 'cuddled-up' more while over half of adults believe they could tell if their partner was cheating on them."

So which is your favorite up ther?

The Part Where You Apologize - Guest Post by Lilly Star

The strongest relationships stumble and when they do the ones that survive are the ones where the person who might have been wrong owns up to their mistake. It’s not just the “sorry” that counts, but the recognition with knowing you are fallible and that the person sitting across from you – that loved one from whom you seek validation and affection – understands that a brief setback isn’t a bad thing so long as reparations are made.

How to Fight Fair - Guest Post by Seye Oke

Posted in: , , , ,

You come home on a Saturday evening from a night out with your girl friends and you meet your husband seated on the couch. The TV is blaring so loud he can barely hear you come in. You come over and he welcomes you with a peck on the side of your face. You didn’t mind the brevity, he is usually this way when the game is on.
