Got a few minutes? If so, take this quick quiz to see if your marriage might be in trouble.
While the age of busyness and technology is upon us, sometimes we forget to communicate in the simplest ways with your spouse. As people have come to me over the years for marriage coaching, I notice several couples who did not see the warning signs of a great marriage problem which began as a small issue. The small issues in a marriage might go unnoticed until a larger problem brings every issue to the forefront.
The list below is not a guide, but a starting point to determine the health of your marriage
(1) If you call your spouse by the wrong name – your marriage might be in trouble.
(2) If you talk to your Facebook friends more that you talk to your spouse – your marriage might be in trouble.
(3) If you send your wife a text message and you are sitting beside her on the couch – your marriage might be in trouble.
(4) If you have a date night with your spouse and you go out alone – your marriage might be in trouble.
(5) If your children mean more to you than your spouse – your marriage might be in trouble.
(6) If you put yourself before your spouse – your marriage might be in trouble.
(7) If you remember your wife’s Twitter name but cannot remember her first name – your marriage might be in trouble.
(8) If you refer to your spouse as “Ball and Chain” or “Doofus” – your marriage might be in trouble.
(9) If your husband cares more about his dog than you – your marriage might be in trouble.
(10) If your wife cares more about her dishwasher than you – your marriage might be in trouble.
(11) If the only communication you have is on the phone – your marriage might be in trouble.
If all the above signs describe your marriage, your marriage IS in trouble.
So, how did you do?
