Last night my fiance and I had dinner with a couple of mutual friends that are also engaged.
We are getting married in June and the other couple has set a September wedding date.
Anyways, as we were eating dinner the other couple invited us out again next week Thursday. We had to decline the invitation because we have to go to our weekly counseling session.
To make a long story short, we ended up having a huge debate about whether marriage counseling is necessary.
They basically told us we were crazy and that no counseling session can teach us "how to love one another".
We politely told them that the purpose of our sessions wasn't to teach us to love one another, but to help us run our household in a manner where God is always first (among other things).
So, did you or did you not get counseling before walking down the aisle and what were the end results?
