In reply to Starting marriage counseling next week, posted by gardenergirl on February 25, 2006, at 17:16:48

... on "Oprah", but it made sense to me.

The marriage counselor said to think of your marriage as your personal ATM machine with a certain balance. At the beginning of your marriage, it's full. As each partner takes out support and individual needs, the ATM balance begins to deplete. Each person needs to continually make deposits so the TLC is there when needed.

Kindof corny but I understood the visual.

And yes, Fallsfall is right, listening is important.
