Should I permit family members?


Many couples are starting to go to counseling or relationship/marriage classes much earlier in their relationship rather than waiting until after the marriage is in trouble.  This is a great option for learning how to have a healthy, lasting relationship and develop open communication. When in a relationship, not only are you involved with the love of your life, but also the family of your spouse. It is important to build a strong, healthy relationship with the families as well. Even if you do not see them often, having a good connection with your spouse’s family will make life for everyone much better all the way around. 
Nevertheless, do not allow other people to interfere with your relationship. If family members try to get in the middle of fights or debates, that is definite trouble.  You might have friends with well-meant intentions trying to help you and your spouse solve problems. Although getting another person's perspective is not a bad thing, make sure it is when you ask for it. It is very important to keep integrity in your relationship and not allow people to interfere. If you know that you and your spouse have proven differences in opinion on certain subjects, avoid those subjects. For example, if both of you are a football fans, you support this club and your spouse supports the other clubs, football should probably be avoided. As the two of you identify new topics that could cause a disagreement, stop the arguement before it even gets started.
