Cupid’s Advice: 

Making marriage work is one of the hardest things to do. That is why Cupid is here to give some relationship advice on how to work on your marriage before resorting to divorce:

1. Communicate: It can seem redundant how often you hear the advice to communicate with your partner. That is simply because it is the best thing you can do for your relationship. Without it, the marriage will never survive.

2. Counseling: It is okay to admit that you are struggling in your marriage. Not everyone is equipped with the skills of a relationship coach or a relationship specialist. Sometimes, if you want to make your relationship work you need to seek professional help.
