In order to be in with a chance of winning, we would like to know what you think to the following statement...
Relationship advice is just as important for couples who are getting on well as it is for couples who are having difficulties
Agree or Disagree?
Post your answer and reasons in no less than 25 words
I have to say relationship advice is essential regardless of how the relationship is faring. We all need to think of ways to keep a relationship healthy be it by trying something new or changing a routine and advice can help people keep relationships healthy.
I agree relationship advice is great at any time, no one is perfect and those that think they are probably need the relationship advice more than others!!
And actd,
I'd say yes you should take your wife or even better let her take a friend 😛

However long you've been married, you never have all the answers! Even if your relationship is going well, there are times when advice from a trusted third party is invaluable. In fact its when a partner thinks they have all the answers that things can go awry and issues can get out of hand!
I agree...the pressure is on in the modern world, families are more fragmented and quality time is spread more thinly...Just like a work of art or a treasured possession that from time to time needs the sympathetic but skilled hands of the restorer to bring it back to its former glory... To renew it and breathe fresh life into it so that it may stay as beautiful as the day it was created. So relationships are the same, they need the same nurturing, the same attention, and occasionally the experience and knowledge of another to bring out the best in them.
My wife of twenty years and i have recently got back together after splitting for a period of time. Although at the time she recommended talking to someone i didn't want to. Since we have talked to someone and i have to say i have never found anything else so useful and next time if we have problems i will talk to someone sooner- no matter what i think i can't always solve it all on my own!
Wow got to say you guys are oh so right. Your mind is like a parachute, good to no one if it's closed hence Relationship advice is a saving grace for ALL couples.
Agree - because one party can think all is well and fail to realise the other person has underlying issues they would like to address.
I agree! Relationships are continually moving forward and as such subject to change in each individual. We need to be aware of this and ready to make use of any advice to move forward with the changes.
