Where do you go for realistic marriage advice for people that want to stay with their spouse?
Real advice for people that actually want to stick with their spouse through the good and the bad.
R/marriage and r/relationshipadvice is unrealistic at times. I’m not talking about abuse cases. Things that can get worked through. I’m tired of how online culture makes it seem like people are disposable. Hard times don’t mean drop the love of your life.
I’ve met real people in person. One explained how she made it through her husband’s severe mood swings. We learned what it took for him to discover he had a raging brain tumor. One explained how his wife’s lingering depression for 3 years was a vitamin deficiency and once that was fixed, the relationship was saved. I met a couple, and the husband developed a contagious disease through a blood transfusion many years ago, they’ve taught me what kept them together. Sometimes I want to read some good news, so I may pass it on if a friend is down.
I want to know where to go to learn how others coped and survived those hardships.
