Here are some wise words from Buddy Scott concerning marriage counseling:
My go-to response in marriage counseling is to save the marriage. Experience has taught me that the following six points are vital to saving a marriage:
First, stop offending each other.
Offending is to be ugly on purpose. Offending is repulsive. It repels. It pushes away.
If your spouse is upset by you responding with wise-crack answers, stop!
If your spouse is disturbed by how much you criticize, stop!
If your spouse is disheartened by name calling, stop!
If your spouse is disillusioned by angry outbursts, stop!
If your spouse is offended by you putting down him or her in front of others, stop!
If your spouse feels violated by you texting the opposite s*x, stop!
If your spouse would rather you come home after work rather than go to a bar, stop!
If your spouse expresses concern about how harsh you are with the children, stop!
If your spouse is irritated by you blowing up the phone, stop!
If your spouse is disappointed by you video gaming all evening, get your balance!
If your spouse doesn’t want you on social media all evening, get your balance! -By Buddy Scott
