Press Release Summary = A new poll from MarriageAdvice.com, a free website that
provides marriage counseling advice and tips, reveals that couples mostly fight
about sex and money. Beth Young, Senior Editor at MarriageAdvice.com responded,
"These findings tell us that we need to be sensitive to our spouses' need for
intimacy and that we need to communicate more about our finances."
Press Release Body = When you hear about a B & B, you typically think of a quaint
bed & breakfast to spend a weekend to rejuvenate your marriage. However, after
looking at the results of a new poll by MarriageAdvice.com, B & B could relate to
the two areas that most couples fight about...the bedroom and the bank.
A new poll reveals that responding couples advised that the number one thing they
fight about is sex. With 23% of the votes, it's clear that it's an issue not to be
trifled with.
Coming in second with 18% of the votes was fights related to money. Their spouses
habits came it with 15% of the votes, and jealousy reared it's ugly head with 10%.
So how do we keep harmony in our marriages? Beth Young, Senior Editor at
MarriageAdvice.com responded, "These findings tell us that we need to be sensitive
to our spouses' need for intimacy. Intimacy is so much more than sex; it's time
together discussing issues that really matter to their relationship; it's being
aware of their needs and dreams; it's looking for ways to show your love and
concern. With intimacy in all aspects of their relationship, the physical aspect of
intimacy become so much more."
"While we're working on marriage advice and reaching a harmonic relationship,
remember that any major financial decision needs to include a discussion between
spouses. Additionally, day to day spending philosophies need to be discussed and
addressed early on in a relationship."
It's never too late to adapt and change old ways to create new and improved
relationships. So quit fighting in the "B & B" and take a trip to a "B & B" to work
on solving the number one thing most couples fight about.
