  1. Thanks for all of your comments everyone. I really needed some of your comments. I will seek counseling and also read with my wife. What should I expect in a counseling session?
  2. I've been married for two years with my lovely wife. Due to unfortunate events in her childhood primarily with her father leaving and my wife's mother not standing up for herself nor her kids, my wife learned to stand up for herself at a very young age so she's not afraid of expressing her opinion nor frustration. Years into our marriage, we always had power struggles but recently it has gotten really bad. It seems that she is not to take any correction from me when I say to stop doing something that I dislike or I feel is against the gospel and her response is very defensive and sarcastic and in my opionion hurtful. Usually there after I respond with "why are you treating me this way?" Which then leads to an argument. She is totally against being so call subservient to the husband and she feels like because I strongly feel that her suggestion or idea is not the best for our family - as I believe I'm the one to protect and provide for my family- that I'm not listening to her and that then that leads her to say that I'm treating her like garbage which we fight about as well because I disagree . This is really bad and I don't know what to do I've spoke with my Bishop once and I mentioned that we had resolved things but now I'm at square one again having this happen every so often and I'm tired of it. I'm so confused, if marriage is the Father's plan and it's supposed to make one happy, why am I so unhappy in my marriage? We also have a 2 year old son together and it would hurt me so much to divorce and not have him be raised in a home with mom and dad.
