Problems make Couples closer

You may be right if the couples try to solve the problems together, then you can say it made them got closer to each other. Often when there are problems, couples just try to blame each other for what happened, thus making them drifted apart and the relationship could not survive.

That is a pretty commendable set up you got there. Indeed, open communication is ideally the best tool to address confrontations or arguments. It is best when couple discuss matters pertinent to the problem-that is also the avenue where they can come up with solutions.

I'd say it depends on the type of problems. If by problems you are talking about things like paying bills, raising kids, and other daily struggles, then yes, I would say this could definitely strengthen the relationship. However, if you are talking about arguments and fights, then no, I see no benefit in this whatsoever. Sometimes relationships get better with time, but sometimes people grow apart.

i agree with you^^ problems and the surpass of it make couples closer. im happy that you and him have different opinions. thats important also for a relation to work. you cant just always agree with him on something. we all have different opinions. 21 years is a lot ^^ it is my age actually ahah anyway i really wish that someday i can also have a marriage like that^^ that lasts for a lot of years and that i can be happy with the guy i love^^

in whole life problems may araise some problems may get debate in husband and wife and some may get closer i probably think that the problem may araise by one imagine by wife if he tells the truth if husband is making trust on his wife he can understand the problem and they two of them make problem may easier and that is main reason to get them closer i think it would be good some time that problem araises

it is typical in a relationship or marriage to have problem, sometimes problem start up in simple thing that sometimes mislead to big problem that's why it better to make it up & talked it earlier.Problem somehow helps to built a stronger relationship or marriage.

Yeah, that is the case for some marriages..unfortunately not all marriages are like that. Problems can either make or break relationships. My wife and I have been together for almost 25 years too, and luckily for us, our problems did make our relationship become stronger.

Yes, I agree.. problems do make relationships stronger and more closer. But not all couples experience that though, it's just sad. Some couples break up over less serious problems..

I totally agree. Me and my fiance have been best friends for many years and together for most of them. I love him so much and we have gone through so many problems with his family trying to tear us apart and we just seem to somehow get through it. It has been really hard for us the past year and it all started when his parents found out we were engaged. We wanted to hide it from them for this reason. Both of us are having the hardest time making money so he can move out and we can get married and then we move in. We also have to pay for his college education because its a great thing my parents are paying for mine. We can't find jobs anywhere so we have tree nursery business in my parent's backyard. It has just been crazy. But all i know is that we have become so close and that nothing can separate us. Everyday is an adventure and we somehow get through it still loving each other at the end of the day. I am glad i found the love of my life so early and that we are capable of being successful together.
