Marriage Counseling: New Poll Reveals The Most Common Issues that Couples Fight About

Friendswood, TX (PRWEB) December 19, 2005

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 were 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.
