In marriage, roles and responsibilities need to be clearly identified and defined.
We wish it could be all fun and games, but marriage is also about adulting. Careers, housework, parenting, financial responsibilities — they may seem like boring details, and many couples would rather bury their heads in the sand than have conversations about them.
The most successful marriages discuss, plan, and execute household responsibilities as a team. For couples who don’t, oftentimes this is their main source of conflict.
How well-oiled is your machine?
- Have you discussed your expectations with your spouse?
- Do you share responsibilities?
- Do you ask for help when you need it, or expect your spouse to help without being asked?
- Do you have a weekly meeting to discuss priorities and obligations?
The happiest couples share the load.
We’ll help you define and communicate your expectations to your spouse, as well as teach you practical ways to share household responsibilities in a way that works for everyone.
