Dear Writer, thank you for writing to us. I understand you are frustrated about the state of your relationship and anxious about the future. You must be hurting over all that had been happening between you and your husband. I understand that although financial reasons might one of the contributing factors to all the tension between the two of you there are probably other reasons as well. To understand you and your situation completely could you please tell me more about yourself and your husband as individuals. Could you tell more about what provokes both of you and what kind of conversations lead to an argument? I understand that you don't feel comfortable mentioning all the details here. Although this is safe place to share your details, you could consider a phone session as well. Please message back to continue our discussion. Regards
