It is normal for relationships to suffer as the pressure and strains of everyday life mount. Love may seem to disappear, replaced by resentment and anger.
Each partner can view this differently depending on their own experience of family life. One may despair, while the other may view it as a temporary blip.
The relationship, rather than the two individuals, is the client.
Signs you have relationship difficulties:
· Communication issues or no communication at all
· Intimacy issues where sex has ended or causes problems
· Arguments continue without resolution
· Violence
