Do you feel you struggle with communication or have frequent misunderstandings?
Do you feel emotionally or physically disconnected from your partner?
Do you feel like you keep having the same conflicts that never get resolved?
Do you feel like you have different expectations for the future (like marriage, children, finances, etc.)?
Do you feel external stress (work, family, health) is affecting your relationship?
Do you feel you want to improve intimacy, trust, and connection?
If you answered YES to any of these, relationship counselling or pre-marital therapy could be a good fit.
We talk all the time, but they just don’t listen.
It feels like we’re roommates, not a couple.
I wish they’d open up to me more.
Every conversation turns into an argument.
They never help around the house—it’s like I have to do everything.
We can’t agree on anything, even the little things.
They always criticise me or bring up old mistakes.
They’re on their phone all the time instead of being present.
It’s like we’re living in two different worlds.
They just don’t get me.
I don’t feel heard or appreciated.
They’re always working and we never spend quality time together.
I feel like I’m the only one putting effort into the relationship.
Every time we try to talk, it feels like it turns into a blame game.
They shut down whenever I bring up something important.
I feel like I’m walking on eggshells around them.
They always assume the worst about my intentions.
They get defensive whenever I try to talk about our problems.
They compare me to other people or say I’m not good enough.
It feels like we’re stuck in the same patterns over and over again.
If any of this sounds familiar, you’re not alone. Relationship counselling can help you work through these issues in a supportive and non-judgemental way.
