MARRIAGE READINESS Couples or individuals sometimes find themselves uncertain how they want to proceed in a relationship. Should they make a deeper commitment? What is causing them to hesitate? How can they explore and discuss this in a productive way?
Issues arising from previous relationships often have an impact. In particular, old hurts can create fear and uncertainty about what to expect in a new relationship.
Concern for the well-being of children from previous relationships can also make decisions about new relationships more complex. Discussing the hopes and expectations of each adult about their relationships to the children is vital.
Counselling for marriage readiness can help couples or individuals through this uncertain time, and give them greater confidence in the decisions they make. | |
