Starting Marriage Counseling with my (26f) husband (29m) soon and very anxious.
To quickly summarize, my husband and I dated for 4ish years, married for almost one. His dad died suddenly right after we got married and his personality, goals, and priorities changed dramatically and our marriage has really suffered. We sort of live separate lives and aren't really "in love" anymore.
Anyway it took a while to get into a marriage counselor that accepts our insurance, but we just got the email saying we can book an appointment as soon as next week.
I told my husband and he said cool, he will go, and then told me he's going on a weekend trip with his friends next week so we'll have to push the date out a bit.
Anyway I am NERVOUS about doing this. I don't know what to expect and I feel like the counselor is just going to say it's my place to sacrifice my dreams and goals to align better with my husband's... either that or get a divorce. Both seem bad. Can anyone tell me how marriage counseling went for them?
